The project is part of a desire to address the school dropout issue, particularly in multi-ethnic and disadvantaged communities. Despite the implementation of several universal interventions in Quebec, the drop-out rate remains high in numerous areas. In the Eastern Townships area, a partnership between the Sherbrooke Regional School Board and the Université de Sherbrooke in […]

In the proposed exchange project, we plan to develop a new collaborative partnership that integrates the expertise of advanced optical imaging instrumentation (McMaster: Fang) and image sequence analysis (INRIA: Kervrann) towards new dynamic imaging technologies. Specifically, we are interested in optofluidics imaging flowcytometers for point-of-care infectious diseases diagnosis as well as high throughput protein-protein interaction […]

MarineLabs provides super high resolution real-time wind, wave, and other data for marine safety and climate resilience by operating a North America wide fleet of compact, rugged, self-powered, marine IoT. With vast data accessible on the CoastAware cloud, MarineLabs is pursuing a number of Machine Learning opportunities. The MarineLabs MITACS internship is aimed to power-up […]

This project is in collaboration with Ciena, an international company specialized in the supply of telecommunications networking equipment and software services. Electrical components produced by Ciena are important in many networking equipment such as routers or switches. Every year, a large number of components is produced. However, the production process may have some flaws, causing […]

The proposed research project will improve CM Labs Simulations’ construction training simulators by automatically evaluating trainees and providing useful feedback about their progress frequently throughout the training cycle. Machine learning techniques will be applied to a large dataset of training simulator recordings in order to discern good skill progression of heavy machine operation for various […]

The proposed research is to investigate and prototype an intelligent architecture for the MemeLabs contest platform that will support advanced features such as multi-layer access control, scaleable design, and to explore innovative mechanisms such as generation and embedding a watermark in shared media of both photo and video. The project is important in the company’s […]

Le stage a pour objectif d’appuyer la transformation du modèle d’affaires de ContinuumRD en une version numérique de cette dernière. Ce stage couvre la portion “Commerce électronique” réalisée par la stagiaire Samira Mouden et sera supervisé par Sylvain Frappier en appui à l’administrateur de ContinuumRD (Stéphane Carpentier et jumelé au professeur Sylvain Perron de HEC […]

Ce projet aborde le problème de la planification d’actions en temps-réel pour une équipe d’acteurs opérant dans un environnement dynamique et possiblement hostile. On y retrouve un exemple typique dans la planification d’actions pour une équipe de joueurs dans un jeu de stratégie en temps-réel. Cela implique d’une part de pouvoir planifier et exécuter des […]

45 Drives—a Nova Scotia based company—offers a high-density, low-cost data storage solution called the Storinator. While this product has been very successful, clients have indicated they would like a clustered solution which offers similar performance and redundancy, without sacrificing security or drastically increasing the cost. Researchers at the University of New Brunswick have been identified […]

SNAP Virtual is a start up company, affiliated with a leading U.S. company, specializing in augmented and virtual reality (AR / VR) software applications. Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR / VR) are among the core technologies (AI, IoT, Robotics) being rapidly adopted for education and training purposes but also to automate, create efficiencies, enable remote […]

With Covid-19 there has been a growth in online therapy opportunities. There are new challenges that need to be addressed to expand our service offering. TinyEYE is facing challenges in increased magnitude of touch points for similar levels of service delivery. An intern can participate in research and development of technologies that enable such offerings, […]

STMicroelectronics has designed a new multicore processor STHORM, which is now going into production. This system promises significant improvements in performance per unit of energy, but poses new challenges in programming. Unlike conventional processors, STHORM does not automatically move program data between various levels of the processor’s memory system. This is one of the reasons […]
