Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed our way of perceiving and interacting with technology, by providing state-of-the-art solutions for challenging problems across the tech-spectrum. The main objective of this cluster of projects is to investigate, develop, adapt, integrate and evaluate state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) techniques, which are suitable for modeling and prediction using datasets collected for […]

The goal of this project is to develop machine learning and data mining algorithms relying on non-intrusive common sensor data to estimate and predict smart buildings’ occupancy and activities. Efficient feedbacks are automatically supplied to the end user to involve occupants and increase their awareness about energy systems. This consists of generating reports helping the […]

Le marché énergétique est en transition. La demande et la consommation d’énergie dans le secteur résidentiel seront impactées par l’adoption de nouvelles technologies et l’évolution des comportements. Le projet de recherche vise le développement d’un modèle statistique générant des profils temporels individualisés de présence des individus à leur résidence en fonction des attributs des individus. […]

Demand for water and wastewater treatment equipment has grown substantially over the last several years, leading to a significant increase in the market size for technology providers such as Trojan. To maintain the cutting-edge nature and quality of Trojan products, it is essential that the research and testing performed at Trojan match this expansion in […]

The motivation for this research comes from an overall need to improve the performance of high voltage module (HVM) and to reduce the size and its material costs while maintaining its efficient performance, with no partial discharge, arc or thermal issues. In particular, stable transient and steady state performances must be achieved for medical X-generators […]

The mining industry directly employs more than 426,000 workers across the Canada and contributed $97 billion to Canada’s GDP in 2017. However, mining workers are exposed to five-fold higher occupational hazards than the industrial average. Reliable underground communication is essential to alleviate incidents and escalate rescue operations. However, wireless communications in mines is a big […]

This project will analyze competencies (knowledge, skill, and attitude) of airside professionals conducting the taxi-ground run of an aircraft in an operational airport environment. Both cognitive task analysis and consensus modeling methodologies will be used to identify competencies and draft a competency framework of the task. Based on the competency framework, training implementations (including those […]

La fabrication de pièces en acier de haute dureté et de hautes propriétés mécaniques pour différentes applications industrielles (pétrochimiques, moule d’injection de plastique, etc.) se fait par différents traitements thermiques. Ces pièces sont fabriquées par différents procédés et subissent une trempe. Les pièces peuvent être de différentes tailles et de formes diverses. Plus la taille […]

Over the air (OTA) test is the standard procedure for wireless devices to verify the transceiver and antennas performance together in specified conditions. Any wireless device such as tablets, phones and laptop must go under OTA testing. Furthermore, regulatory organizations require OTA testing before the wireless device being certified. Due to the time-consuming procedure of […]
