ROSS Intelligence enables legal professionals to find analyze legal issues and find hidden information and cuts down on research time by using artificial intelligence specialized in legal research. Recent advances in neural networks applied to natural language processing have brought results that are close to human performance in some tasks. However, this approach is still […]

5G, cloud and IoT confederation vision is to revolutionize the internet by fostering billions of interconnected mobile and embedded devices, sensors, and services, exchanging information in order to build smart, self-conscious autonomous environments. Yet, the ubiquity and value of connected devices and their applications cannot hide their security and privacy challenges. The enormous amount of […]

This project will develop a novel sensor based gesture controlling system aiming at significantly improving game player’s satisfaction via realistic playing engagement/experience. With such interface technology, the player can control the game directly via his/her natural gestures and body movements which are translated into game interface parameters in real time. The objectives of this project […]

L’entreprise StreamScan Inc. produit un « système de détection de compromission » ou (compromize detection system ou CDS), une solution de sécurité innovante, de nouvelle génération qui permet d’identifier l’ensemble des systèmes informatiques (serveurs, équipements réseau, etc.) piratés dans une infrastructure TIC. Ce projet a pour objectif d’adapter le produit CDS au contexte de l’Internet […]

Ubisoft has an extensive database of character’s heads represented as polygonal meshes. Those come from two primary sources: processed 3D scans and models made by artists. It would be convenient to use this database to mix-and-match parts of characters to create new human-like character heads. Let’s say we wish to replace the nose of one […]

It has been demonstrated in the previous research that monitoring only one point as the sole region of insulation degradation is not sufficient for operational safety of high-voltage bushings. Therefore, monitoring a wider volume of the high stress region inside the bushing using ECT sensing becomes a necessity for earlier detection of defects. In this […]

The proposed solution will address IoT security challenges by using the blockchain technology to create feasible trust mechanisms. We will develop a solution by which exchanged information remains trusted and confidential to be handled efficiently at different places, and we will apply it to a smart transport use case.

The on-line dating industry currently has over 1400 different sites, including known sites such as eHarmony, Match.com and LavaLife, however, research indicates a general dissatisfaction in the quality of relationship matches generated by these sites. The research proposal will investigate the use of rule based semantic technologies in providing accurate and higher quality matching service. […]

Deep Learning is the new, and fast growing bread of systems based on artificial neural networks. These are phenomenal at learning patterns and generating new pattern that have the characteristics of the data the system was trained on. One of the main artistic and creative use of Deep Learning is to process images, pictures video. […]

2012 marked a pivotal milestone in the field of neural networks. The intersection of general purpose computing using Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), labelled big datasets, and very large neural networks (called deep neural networks) enabled a break-through in machine learning that has led to impressive results in many fields and applications, such as self-driving vehicles […]

Real-time full-body tracking based on single or multiple commodity depth sensors are an integral part of many applications such as motion transfer in 3D games, 3D virtual and augmented reality, and human computer interaction. The proposed project directly derives from practical needs expressed by the partner organization, DreamCraft Attractions (Victoria) in developing fully immersive VR […]

Knowledge workers (i.e., researchers, business consultants and analysts, research-program managers) produce documents (research publications, analysis reports, opinion pieces, calls-for-proposals, and blog posts) through which they express their knowledge and opinions. They also read and review similar documents, produced by individuals and organizations in their domain of interest and expertise, to keep current with their domain. […]
