The industry partner, Cantest is establishing a new leak detection procedure for analyzing data sources in aboveground storage tanks and statistical learning models to monitor AST shell dynamics and product activity over time. This is an important problem as identifying leak detection is usually associated with various environmental data and records collected from sensitive sensors […]

The objective of this proposal is to study Littlewood cyclotomic polynomials of odd degree. In algebra, the cyclotomic polynomial is one such that has all its roots on the unit circle. Since all the coefficients of Littlewood polynomials are -1 or +1, its associates a finite binary sequence with -1 or +1 entries. Therefore, their […]

Credit risk—the potential that a borrower will fail to make required payments—is the oldest risk in our economy. It may arise in a number of circumstances, for example, a consumer failing to make the minimum payment due on a credit card or a company defaulting on its debt. Our main goal in this summer project […]

The goal of this project is to evaluate the data quality of the citizen science Golden Eagle count data collected by the Rocky Mountain Eagle Research Foundation and to determine the population trend over 25 years. Since 1993 they have collected data, consisting of daily raptor migration counts in the Fall and Spring seasons. It […]

The National Bank of Canada (NBC) is currently trying to put in place an automatic credit card fraud detection system based on advanced learning algorithms. Credit card fraud happens when someone steals a credit card, credit card information or personal identification number (PIN) and uses it without permission to make a purchase or withdraw money […]

With the advances in technology and modern computing power, there is a vast increase in data collection and storage in a variety of fields, especially in the fields of medicine and genetics. For example, DNA micro-arrays in genetics now allow scientists to analyze the expression and interaction of millions of genes simultaneously. This massive increase […]

Dans ce projet, nous proposons le de?veloppement d’outils d’aide a? la de?cision novateurs pour ame?liorer la prestation des soins et des services a? domicile. Le projet est articule? autour de deux principaux sujets de recherche : A) le de?veloppement d’approches d’optimisation pour la gestion de l’offre (les soignants) et de la demande (les patients); et […]

White-box cryptography seeks to maintain the secrecy of cryptographic keys used by software, despite an attacker having full control over the software. This project extends the work by Dr. Lin on the Chinese cipher SM4, as well as its application to a further cipher. The goal of this project is: 1) To implement a complete […]

Les marchés d’énergie dérégulés sont de plus en plus utilisés de par le monde pour gérer l’achat et la vente d’énergie. Ces marchés permettent à n’importe quelle compagnie productrice de participer à la vente et tentent de minimiser le prix de l’énergie pour les acheteurs. Chaque jour, les compagnies productrices souhaitant vendre sur le marché […]

As a central problem in modern microeconomic theory, multidimensional screening plays a significant role in taxation theory, regulation, nonlinear pricing, insurance, etc. Starting from eminent work of Nobel Laureates Mirrlees, Spence and Myerson, there are two main types of generalizations: one is in terms of dimensionality, from one-dimensional to multi-dimensional; the other is in preferences […]

Les algèbres amassées sont des objets d’études mathématiques générés par un ensemble de variables initiales. Pour construire une algèbre amassée, on modifie cet ensemble de variables en échangeant une à une n’importe quelle variable par une nouvelle variable construite grâce à des règles de mutation. Toutes les variables obtenues par ce procédé récursif répété une […]
