The proposed research project aims to develop a multi-modal stethoscope, containing superior digitized heart and lung sounds, telemedicine capabilities and assistive diagnostics. This is achieved by leveraging new advancements in piezo, microphone, wireless and machine learning technologies. The project will investigate these technologies and integrate them into custom made electronics and mechanical designs to achieve […]

CAE Santé a besoin de fournir rapidement des simulateurs médicaux à ses clients et de concevoir des prototypes fonctionnels. L’objectif du stage est de mettre en place un outil d’aide à la décision en intégrant les procédés de fabrication additives afin qu’elle puisse diminuer ces cycles de développement de produit. L’outil permettra d’évaluer les pièces […]

The main objective of this project is to investigate, develop and evaluate state-of-the-art color image/video analysis and machine-learning algorithms, which are suitable for accurate modeling and recognition from large-scale image datasets that are weakly labeled. In particular, we will focus on investigating and developing interactive (partially-supervised) algorithms for annotating massive sets of color images, while […]

Electrospinning technique will be used as a new mixing method to disperse nanofillers into the epoxy base polymer in this project . The single-needle electrospinning scheme has been successfully used in the preparation of nanofilled silicone rubber composites. However,its low volume product has limited the industrial applications,so another electrospinning scheme will be investigated to scale […]

Data centers (DCs) in network softwarization and 5G eras are significantly different from those operated nowadays by public cloud providers. They are massively distributed, closer to end-users, heterogeneous (e.g., multi-access edge, central office as a data center, etc.) and rely on much more complex technologies (e.g., Network Functions Virtualization [NFV] and Software-Defined Networking [SDN]). This […]

The objective is to develop the best practices for the determination of manoeuvring coefficients by solving RANS equations. The commercial CFD package, Star-CCM+, will be employed. Results will be used to develop mathematical manoeuvring models. Studies will be carried out for three ships with and without appendages. Various scales will be used to investigate the […]

The project builds upon prior work done by Prof. Katherine Kuchenbecker’s former Ph.D. student Naomi Fitter and current Ph.D. student Mayumi Mohan in the field of human-robot interaction. They investigated ways of using an upper-body humanoid robot (a Rethink Robotics Baxter Research Robot) to play physically interactive games with elderly adults in order to motivate […]

Power systems are becoming more open, stochastic and dynamic nonlinear as the integration of renewable energy sources are keeping increasing. On the other hand, power systems are usually confronted with various weather conditions and fortuitous events that may lead to incidents causing instability of the networks. This research will propose an on-line transient stability prediction […]

The aim of this research and development project is to design and develop a bedside point-of-care device to be equipped with the CardiAI’s machine learning technology for heart failure management. our POC system will include disposable cardiac biomarker strips and an electronic reader. Once implemented, it will be connected to the AI platform that will […]

Ce projet s’attaque au délai de livraison d’un réseau de fabricants des meubles en bois avec la simulation informatique. L’objectif est de répondre aux deux questions suivantes; ‘et si l’entreprise enlève ou ajoute un tel produit de sa ligne de montage, diminuera-t-elle son temps de passage?’ et ‘et si les fournisseurs changent leurs aménagements, diminueront-t-ils […]

Many mineral ores are concentrated by froth flotation, a process that often uses toxic chemicals to selectively alter mineral surface properties. With increasing regulatory restrictions, the industry could face a dead end with no alternative reagents that are sufficiently efficient, low cost or environment friendly. It has been previously shown that peptides could selectively bind […]
