This project aims to develop an objective and universal speech privacy method that can be used within and between open-plan and closed offices, taking account of transmission paths and likely speech sound levels based on space type and usage. A performance classification table complete with likely subjective response and percentage intelligibility will be developed for […]

In industrial areas like manufacturing units, logistics centers, and warehouses, floors are exposed to heavy traffic along with high mechanical loads and possible chemicals contact. This promotes the use of polymeric cementitious flooring compositions such as epoxy resin-based flooring compositions and polyurethane (PU) cementitious systems. The latter showed outstanding mechanical properties and do not suffer […]

In this Mitacs Cluster project, we aim to investigate and improve performance of deep survival models developed by Ortho Biomed Inc., our industrial collaborator. The main objective is to predict clinical outcomes, such as time of death, and the time of organ failure before and after surgery, more accurately and more efficiently. Architecturally, Ortho Biomed […]

The proposed research aims to develop an innovative control framework to deal with safety-critical systems in which the plant’s safety constraints must be fulfilled regardless of the possible presence of unpredictable disturbances and measurement noise. The technology developed by this project is expected to be beneficial in different application domains of current interest to Quebec, […]

“Deliberate Oblivion” is a research project which aim to contribute to my doctoral dissertation “The Nation Under Display”. My proposal seeks to explore how the notion of “oblivion” operated in an active way in museums decision-making processes during the nineteenth century in Latin America. Through this, I want to demonstrate that “oblivion” has a socio-political […]

Frozen clay soils comprise a large portion of permafrost in Canada. Long-term records indicate ongoing global warming has resulted in the thawing of portions of the permafrost area, which leads to the extensive settlement of the ground surface and causing damage to infrastructures. Pipelines are buried below the ground to avoid failure because of the […]

My project conducts a cultural history of the postwar period in North America, by investigating experimental cinema’s entanglement within a network of interdisciplinary and multimedia experimentations. Specifically, I focus on the interactions of filmmaker Stanley VanDerBeek with two interdisciplinary projects that were conceived as investigations on the interrelation of art, new media, technology, and anthropology: […]

The proposed project aims at exploring the technical and financial feasibility of employing cutting-edge solar technologies and design strategies in the retrofit of large commercial buildings, and application to a case study in Schefferville. The research consists of two main design 1) incorporating commonly existing PV panels into Rainscreen cladding, to act as the outer […]

This project aims to solve a primary problem of 5G/B5G Networks, namely the Service Function Chain (SFC) provisioning problem. This project will improve the solutions for this problem in two aspects. First, the SFC architectures considered in this project are futuristic/generalized ones that do not appear in existing systems. These architectures reduce the processing time […]

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are a relatively new class of materials, which gained significant attention from the scientific community in the past 10-15 years. The interest in MOFs is mainly due to their unique properties, which include tunable structure, large surface area, extensive porosity, and a high degree of crystallinity. Because of these characteristics, MOFs have […]

Being able to analyze a 3D model of a patient’s pelvic bones allows doctors to plan surgeries and diagnosis diseases. With continued improvements in medical imaging and machine learning, it is now fast and accurate to produce these models. However, current techniques rely on CT scans that emit ionizing radiation. This type of radiation is […]

Since September 2021, I have worked as a research assistant for Professors Erica Lehrer (Concordia University, Canada) and Joanna Wawrzyniak (University of Warsaw, Poland) to survey existing decolonial curatorial practices in Poland’s museum landscape. My proposed Mitacs Outbound project aims to enrich the current discussion of Poland’s difficult past by bringing Jewish and BIPoC perspectives […]
