Cloud computing allows consumers to reduce the costs associated with the purchase and maintenance of computing infrastructure, platform and software resources by exploiting on-demand resource provisioning and pay-per-use payment models. Although, cloud computing has offered significant benefits to the IT indistry, the research on cloud computing is currently at its infancy, with many issues still […]

This research project will aid in the creation of safe networks of wireless devices, such as security cameras. Computer software using artificial intelligence will watch the networks for problems with the devices or misuses of the networks. In particular, this project will discover ways to ensure that the networks are compatible with the right kind […]

This project will be comprised of exploratory research as well as independent research with various mobile location based technologies. The first component of the project will involve working with an existing home automation platform called iControl (www.icontrol.com). The second component of the project will be the development of a “Family Finder” mobile application that interacts […]

Ce projet vise à utiliser des techniques de traitement automatique des langues naturelles et d’exploitation de données textuelles afin d’aider à prédire le contexte législatif dans lequel les entreprises oeuvrent. Nous espérons ainsi réduire le risque relié à l’incertitude entourant la législation en la prédisant le mieux possible.

This project tackles the issue of knowledge incompleteness and lack of domain coverage in resume and job posting matching caused by the exploitation of domain-general resources. A variety of co-operative semantic/ontological resources will be used to filter out irrelevant resumes. A two-way (candidate to job and job to candidate) semantic-based automatic suitability ranking is proposed. […]

Relatively few interactive narrative-based systems support storytelling as an activity that takes place between children and their parents or guardians. This project is the initial foundation HCI research to explore and prototype tools and methodologies as contribution to the development of an innovative collaborative online storytelling application – The Kids Book Company. This is an […]

In healthcare, communication and clear roles and responsibilities are critical in delivering care to patients. This is difficult to achieve in the best of times; during pandemics and mass casualty events, communication is the first thing to fail, leading to inefficiency, confusion, and ultimately harm to patients. This project aims to develop an automated system […]

The project aims to research and develop the most effective way for making COVID 19 guidelines into measurable actions for organizations. This research will enhance Diversio’s Audit tool in two parallel tracks: 1) Methodology for developing sector- and region-specific compliance surveys, translating those survey responses into a scoring methodology, and 2) Technology for automating the […]

Numerous studies in the application of Machine Learning to mental health have demonstrated a range of benefits in the areas of diagnosis, treatment and support, research, and clinical administration. COVID-19 is an unprecedented health crisis causing a great deal of stress in populations in Canada. In this project, our aim is to apply practical machine […]

Contagious diseases, such as SARS and COVID-19, bring a large amount of damage to human’s life and world economy. Pathogens spread among individuals through the contact network. It is observed that most social networks show a power-law degree distribution, implying that hubs exist in these networks. Finding underlying super-spreaders (hubs) and isolating or immunizing them […]

The Centre for Global eHealth Innovation (UHN) is leading the development of a mobile web application for asthma self-management on behalf of Ontario Lung Association, in a project funded by Canada Health Infoway. The internship will involve the research and development of the user-interface of this novel application, which can be accessed by users via […]
