Medical devices that are implanted into the human body allow for continuous medical monitoring and intervention, such as stimulation, recording, and drug delivery. Cardiac pacemakers and insulin pumps are examples of novel technology implanted for long-term treatment. For the treatment of neurological disorders, recent advances in neuroengineering consider the use of implantable electrodes. However, these […]

The proposed research aims to develop machine vision-based decision support system for variable crop management. This research will deploy the deep learning models for plant/weed detection, plant growth indicators and soil organic matter assessment. The information retrieved from these models will be used to devise variable rate management map to optimize the consumption of agrochemical […]

Vibration of aircraft engine is the major contribution to the structure vibration in an aircraft. To reduce the cabin noise and improve the comfortability for air passenger, research design and analysis are desired in the engine technology. A critical component in eliminating the vibration in an aero engine is the squeeze film damper (SFD). Current […]

Le sujet a l’etude dans ce projet est le joint de cuivre flexible. Ces joints assurent une connexion electrique entre des conducteurs. Certains fabricants utilisent aujourd’hui ces joints flexibles dans les alternateurs pour faire les connexions entre les poles du rotor pour l’inducteur. Le dimensionnement de ces joints flexibles s’effectue avec une approche conservatrice compte […]

We are at the era of precision medicine and dentistry; however, currently the leading-edge technologies used for adaptive milling control and modeling of CNC milling have not entered the micro-scale milling applications in the dental industry. The overall objective of this MITACS project is to utilize an Industry 4.0 based approach to explore characterization parameters […]

This research project focuses on using functional modelling (FRAM) to map trainee-trainer interactions in lifeboat simulators. The functional model will be used as a basis to create a virtual instructor that can provide feedback to trainees autonomously in Virtual Marine’s lifeboat simulators. The research will contribute to improving the capabilities of Virtual Marine’s lifeboat simulators […]

The intern is expected to work on devising novel, research-based solutions to model traits (e.g., naturalness, confidence, engagement, humor, etc.) from video recordings of non-cognitive, performance-based tasks. Specifically, we are working toward an intelligent combination of multimodal (video, speech, text) data to create an enriched model for predicting human traits in human-computer interactions. The intern […]

It has become clear during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic that the standard opaque medical masks pose a challenge for effective communication in healthcare settings, especially for deaf and hard of hearing people and other individuals who rely on visual cues or lip/speech reading. To address this challenge, this research project aims to develop a transparent single-use […]

Le projet de recherche a pour but de faire progresser les outils techniques de la construction hors site (CHS) de structures modulaires en ossature de bois. Utilisant une méthodologie appelée recherche-action, le stagiaire devra élaborer un prototype fonctionnel d’une plateforme numérique spécifique pour l’industrie de la construction afin de faciliter la CHS et d’améliorer son […]

La modélisation des données du bâtiment (BIM) présente de nombreux avantages et est un outil nécessaire pour un virage de l’industrie vers le numérique. Son développement est encore faible dans le génie civil et le gouvernement a donc présenté une feuille de route avec des cibles à atteindre pour les donneurs d’ouvrages publics. Pour y […]
