Mass customization relates to the ability to provide customized products or services through flexible processes in high volumes and at reasonably low costs. Massuni is well into the development of a system that vertically integrates a user-facing interface that enables unskilled users to design and customize individual pieces of furniture, with the ability to efficiently […]

3D indoor scenes are ubiquitously needed in the virtual world, e.g. 3D games, movies and virtual reality. These scenes provide the essential virtual environments for 3D characters to perform daily activities and tasks. Current scenes on public available datasets, e.g. Trimble 3D warehouse, are usually clean and well organized, and might not be sufficient to […]

Our intended research will be focused on rumor spreading protocols, also known as randomized broadcasting. In the randomized rumor spreading problem, the goal is to broadcast a message that is initiated at one node to all nodes in a given network, by means of nodes choosing uniformly at random a neighbor and exchanging the message […]

The purpose of this project is to develop methodologies for automatic human emotion detection from video that can work accurately in uncontrolled, real-world, environments. Emotional activity will be assessed from signals such as the heart-rate, blinking rate or the diameter of the eye?s pupil. Architech Labs conducts research in the areas of machine learning, computer […]

This project aims to develop an intelligent surveillance system for automatic event detection. The proposed system will operate in an indoor environment to notify the user of events of interest in real-time. Most standard systems use visible-light cameras and basic change detection methods (e.g. Background subtraction) to recognize simple events such as intrusion. Instead, we […]

This research project aims at providing efficient methods to solve a mathematical problem which has practical applications in digital communication and online storage. In the domain of communications, these methods perform the decoding stage of some error-correcting codes, which are used to ensure reliable data transmission over an unreliable or noisy communication channel such as […]

The project first aims at developing a robust and low latency hardware system for identifying which fingers are in contact with a surface. The second objective is to implement and refine finger identification interaction techniques that would improve the interaction with touch surfaces (smart phone, tablets, tabletops). These techniques will be evaluated to state of […]

Addictive Mobility is the leading Big-Data online advertising company in Canada. It uses Real-Time Bidding (RTB) platform for online display advertising in mobile devices. In this domain, a number of companies compete with each other to display a specific Ad to a customer within a specific time. Thus, in such a competitive system, the goal […]

The objective of this project is to develop a system that provides video recommendations to the user based on the content of the video they are currently watching. Existing methods generally create their recommendations based on the title or tags of the video or on the viewing patterns of other users who have watched the […]

Sensing technologies require the deployment and maintenance of complex and large infrastructures. This research proposal is focused on people’s activity recognition technologies though existing WiFi infrastructures. The information gathered by this technology can be applied to different industries like home automation, security, etc. In the future, this technology will powered applications in the home automation […]

In STEM education, many problem sets require a student to answer a question with a drawing. For example, kinematic physics or statics/dynamics engineering problems often require the student to construct a free-body diagram as a necessary step in the solution. However, when such subjects are taught through online education (such as though a MOOC), most […]

The GammaGuard is the mobile application which the user can be used to detect radiation level by using detectors, in our research they are called CT 100 and CT007, or using mobile camera. The previous work was only focusing on the CT 007 which used the classic Bluetooth technology. In CT 100, the Bluetooth low […]
