Robust perception in all weather conditions is a critical requirement for autonomous vehicles. This project proposes fusing gated and conventional RGB camera images for robust scenes encoding, depth estimation and trajectory prediction. Conventional approaches using lidar and RGB camera fail to perform robustly in rain, fog and snow. By extending existing computer vision algorithms to […]

The goal is to create a conversation loop between 3D designers and artificial intelligence programs. This will help the AI provide suggestions to the designer, while the designer provides the AI with feedback. This can help make it easier for designing complicated objects as well as complicated textures that belong to the surface of 3D […]

The online video-based tutoring industry is growing fast but there is a lack of interaction between student and tutor. Some survey studies suggest that interactive video-based tutoring like giving bookmarks, hints, nudges, and quizzes in between video lectures helps the student in improving concentration and learning. We propose an interactive video tutoring module which given […]

Les sites et les applications web contiennent souvent des bugs d’affichage : boutons mal placés ou non fonctionnels, éléments partiellement cachés par d’autres, etc. Ces bugs peut relever d’un simple problème esthétique, ou, de manière plus sévère, compromettre la fonctionnalité de l’application

Some of us recall our dreams very often, while other hardly ever remember them. The neuroscience of sleep and dream research is a thriving field with still many unanswered questions. Differences in brain network dynamics between individuals with high versus low dream recall rates, are still poorly understood. In this internship, we will address this […]

Most large companies use software systems that were developed over decades. They comprise systems that are in different programing languages and must all communicate with one another to solve bUSiness problems. As these systems become increasingly large and complex, there is a need to develop tools and techniques to ensure their quality. Current state-of-the-art techniques […]

Dans les recherches récentes en génie logiciel et plus particulièrement en compréhension du logiciel, une grande partie des approches utilisent des techniques issues de la communauté du traitement automatique des langues naturelles. L’utilisation de ces techniques de traitement des langues au logiciel s’est avérée être efficace pour capturer des informations textuelles et sémantiques dans des […]

360-degree video streaming is one key element of many Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) applications. The computing and networking demands pose great challenges for mobile devices and mobile networks, especially if a mobile device is the video source. The deployment of mobile edge computing offloads computing and networking demands on mobile devices and alleviates […]

This project pertains to the modeling, detection and monitoring of crises in geopolitical dynamiC environments. As risks are inherent to crises, we need tools to cope with the uncertainty factors involved in these situations. The objective of this project is to conduct research activities to support the understanding of crisis situations and to model their […]

Implémentation d’un système simple de contrôle de processus dans un système ExAO incluant des effecteurs. Le didacticiel produit devrait faciliter la programmation par des étudiants de niveau collège d’un système de contrôle avec des instructions simples et explicites.

In this project, we propose the use of blockchains to provide reliability, security, and transparency for collecting and querying IoT data in the energy sector. In particular, we will implement and evaluate our blockchain solution for enabling transactions in local energy markets, where homeowners have the capacity to generate energy (through renewables), stock energy (through […]

FORCE uses hydroacoustic echosounder surveys to evaluate the impact of tidal turbines on marine animals in the Bay of Fundy. FORCE use Echoview software to read in the raw sensor data (e.g. voltages) and convert it to a visual representation. Echoview contains some algorithms to detect the bottom of the ocean. However, the FORCE hydroacoustic […]
