Subject: Concept design is the first phase of the design process, the time needed to make basic decisions that set the specifications for a proposed artifact and begin to determine its ultimate shape. Starting from very general and very high level requirements (desires and needs), a first set of requirements is created; several concepts are […]

The City of Montreal desires to evaluate the potential for the implementation of Multi-purpose Utility Tunnel (MUT) within its territory and to assess the overall benefits it could derive from it. This exercise would be initiated by a review of the state of the art to identify the criteria of choice and the associated benefits […]

Machine learning techniques have been applied to the financial industry for some time. They have allowed large utilities and generators to better forecast their needs, and the prices they will pay, leading to a generally more efficient grid. However, very little research has been done that could benefit power marketers, who do not have a […]

The aim of the project is to contribute to reshaping conceptual design by incorporating state-of-the-art design theories and model-based systems engineering. Concept design is the first phase of the design process, the time needed to make basic decisions that set the specifications for a proposed artifact and begin to determine its ultimate shape. To better […]

This project is to study the sensors (e.g., accelerometers, gyros, magnetometers) which used to measure the flight control system. These sensors are usually are effecting with bias, drift and noise effects. Therefore, the use of sensors fusion algorithms is key to estimate accurately measured and filtered values and to ensure the correct behavior of the […]

Construction industry is considered as one of the major air pollutant emissions sources, such as NOx, PM, COx, SOx and so on. Those air pollutants are detrimental to the ambient air quality, and they can cause immediate and serious damage to the workers’ health. However, in current practices, the potential impacts are significantly underestimated and […]

The goal is to develop a new in-video e-commerce service that enables users to purchase apparels directly from streaming videos, such as TV shows and Music videos. To do this, we have to find apparels from an inventory list that are similar to apparel or style appearing in the video. Currently, this can be done […]

Currently, the automotive industry is going through a very significant transformation—one that is blending cars with modern IT, involving technologies such as: multiple CPUs for in-car computing, ad-hoc networking and Internet connectivity, computer vision and sensing technologies, entertainment and artificial intelligence for automated driving and real-world congestion control. Connected and intelligence vehicles are also raising […]

This research project will allow us to assess how similar two news articles are to each other. This may be easy for a human to do, but for machines this is actually quite hard. OpenReg will make use of this assessment to determine if a news article is important for their users. The goal is […]

My research looks at emergent possibilities for certain democratized shared spaces and the humanizing potential of cross-cultural sharing in the context of the current refugee crisis. I will do this through a case study of a project currently underway in Munich, Germany, called Plug in Beats. Plug in Beats is a monthly dance party held […]

This project explores the use of new forms of currency and revenue models in the context of online platforms, looking for their different economic and symbolic implications. By looking at an adult website that broadcasts amateur sexcams, this research asks how money – tokens, crypto currencies and traditional currencies, are experienced there, querying their different […]
