TurnMeUp is an iOS app for always-on voice communications. Users leave the app running in the background and can talk to the recipient (also using the app) at any time. This app is especially useful for coworkers listening to their own music in the background without needing to enter and exit voice call sessions manually. […]

Blockchain is an emerging technology that has the potential to change the way financial participants transact with each other. It enables direct transfer of value and financial assets between participants over networks without the need for a central authority (internet of value). It does this by combining the functionality of different technologies – distributed systems, […]

The intern will work on applying new advances from the field of Machine Learning to models which make predictions about time-series data. The models have the desirable property modeling the distribution of outcomes in a way that we can sample from, allowing us to account for uncertainty in the model’s predictions. By making more accurate […]

During surgeries, it is important to keep track of what is happening with the patient, the steps being taken during the surgery by the operating staff, and unforeseen events that occur. All the previous correspond to the surgical workflow. Keeping track of the workflow is essential to achieving a better and safer surgery. In the […]

Using web crawling technology in coordination with state of the art machine learning techniques, the project aims to mine useful, structured information about the world’s suppliers from the web. Recent advances in artificial intelligence have increased the viability of such autonomous systems for extracting coherent information from arbitrary human-produced content. By leveraging these technologies, our […]

Developing a model for a system can come with a lot of uncertainty, especially in the early stages of development. Recent research has be done into removing uncertainty during early stage models. Doctalk plans to use modern research to develop a viable product for market, while contributing to the process of the research being applied […]

The company wants to develop a state of art recommendation system for the clients. A recommendation system is a piece of software that provides products’ suggestions to customers on a website. For example the products suggestions that can be seen on Amazon’s web page are generated by its recommendation engine. The typical recommendation engines work […]

Some diseases and brain injuries can seriously impair language. Patterns in an individual’s speech can allow computers to describe these impairment with a high degree of accuracy. These techniques can be used to test large groups of people for drug trials and potentially replace pen-and-paper based testing methods. To fully automate this process, speech recognition […]

In this project, we will apply machine learning to perform image style classification. We will build a system that uses image style classification to increase user engagement in an eCommerce platform setting. We will study the effects of user preferences for particular image styles on their engagement with the platform. Image style classification is the […]

Our Mitacs internship’s objective is to determine which machine learning system works best under certain financial conditions using our proprietary trading algorithms. EquitySoft benefits from this research by being able to leverage expertise on applied machine learning to AI-based […]

Les rapports de sites contaminés contiennent une multitude d’informations pertinentes pour les experts en environnement. Ces rapports décrivent les caractéristiques d’un site contaminé et les technologies utilisées pour réhabiliter ce site. L’extraction des informations pertinentes de ces rapports volumineux exige des ressources qualifiées importantes. Ces informations permettent notamment aux experts d’appliquer cette connaissance à de […]

Bell’s Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) team is collaborating with academic institutions in order to further research and develop cyber security analytics for the protection of critical infrastructure and data. The focus of this research is to create and leverage a traffic classification project specifically for network security purposes. This research to design distributed algorithms fast […]
