This project will build on the work previously completed in the Mitacs project done by Dr. Michael Bauer, Omid Mola and Cyborg Trading Systems (CTS) – Integration of an Autonomous Trading Platform. The previous project formed the foundation of developing an autonomic system in an algorithmic trading application. The initial project was successful in determining […]

This project seeks to develop a fluid solver that is capable of simulating the interaction between low viscosity fluids and solid objects, such as pouring down water from a water pitcher onto the ground. Fluid effects such as splashing water are widely used in video game and film industry. As a visual effect solution provider, […]

Hybridity Media’s Circles, is a user-friendly software application.

Users can include image from their photo libraries, social networks, or image search results in order to create customized playable scenes from existing content. The […]

The problem of accurately predicting the onset of sustained postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains open. Investigators have reported many clinical indices currently associated with postoperative AF following CABG. Contemporary machine learning techniques are well-suited to recognizing underlying trends in ‘training’ data consisting of several labeled examples, and […]

Video Games require a vast array of different computations to present the desired experience. These computations must be completed consistently to make the software responsive to the user. The industry trend towards many separate processors (multi-core) in the same physical device and the mergence of network based ‘cloud’ computing have created many opportunities, but also […]

State-of-the-art computer graphics technology allows for the generation of images and animations that border on photo-realistic quality; however, this level of fidelity is often reserved for feature-film productions where the time budget is much more flexible. In the case of interactive graphics, such as approaches that are used in video games, similar demands are made […]

Hearing loss affects over 1/2 of Canadians over 65 years of age. Remarkably, however, hearing aid adoption rates have remained stable and very low (20-25%) over the past 25 years. This is particularly surprising given the significant, concomitant advancements in hearing aid technologies within the same timeframe. In attempting to identify the causes of dissatisfaction […]

CaseBank provides a service called ChronicX™ to the airline industry for the purpose of detecting and managing repeat defects, i.e. faults that have eluded resolution repeatedly. Each night, airlines upload their raw maintenance records to the CaseBank server. ChronicX applies text mining methods to eliminate irrelevant records, and search for defects that are repeat occurrences […]

Games are no fun to play if there is a perfect winning strategy so that a player can always win by playing it. Game designers are aware of this, but it is notoriously difficult to predict when such strategies exist for a given rule set. This project is about studying the effects of changing the […]

Social media integration into enterprise-oriented workflows is gaining widespread adoption due to factors such as crowdsourcing and inter-organization collaborations. The partner organization has an existing system that is working for helping Saskatchewan businesses grow by bringing educated youth into the province. Their system is for providing opportunities for people all around the world to live […]
