This project aims to challenge unjust systems and policies and support Indigenous people in their efforts to establish their food systems and adapt to the new COVID-19 world. It will explore ways to address long-term pandemic-related food security challenges led by Indigenous organizations. The intern will gather information from experiences and existing research across Indigenous […]

Services provided by CES move the traditional paradigm away from static paper maps and data management. Instead, they offer MapAki to create and deliver unique interactive web maps. This research project will attempt to associate multi-layered artificial intelligence empowered services to redesign and rebrand MapAki. Firstly, this project will use up-to-date visuals collected from the […]

Cancer is a disease that involves the uncontrolled division of cells in the body. Cancer begins when the cells disobey normal cell division and cell death processes and is a disease that affects millions of people worldwide. There is a type of cancer that is caused by a mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor […]

The applicant has completed building a spectroscopic device to measure trace gases (e.g., Greenhouse Gasses -GHG) in agriculture fields. The objective of proposed project is to conduct a field trial of the developed device and optimize different optical components so that the system, operating as a standalone device, can perform the following tasks: (a) Multicomponent […]

In this project, a group of scholars in computer science and business proposes using state-of-the-art machine learning methods for secondary-data-based persona construction and preference prediction. Specifically, the researchers will use recent data dimension reduction methods to process the raw data, use new machine learning models to achieve better learning results, and use self-supervised technology and […]

The aim of this project is to investigate and develop a 3D dashboard and protocol conversion mechanism for monitoring of equipment/devices in remote facilities. The 3D dashboard allows TriVision’s employees to take corrective actions when needed and gives them the visual effect of the layout and equipment of the facility for better interaction. The proposed […]

This research project informs an essential part of my broader doctoral research which investigates the aesthetic and rhetoric practices developed by today’s far-right populist movements for their propaganda and communication on social media. Working along with Professor Vijay Mago and DaTALab researchers I will generate, collect, and analyse a wide range of new and original […]

In the West, the arts have played a distinctive role in enabling the fiction of our current perceptions of ecology; one where human mastery of the planet has been mythologised through the production of images. These artistic myths at one level separate us from nature, while also paradoxically, seeking to establish deep, meaningful connections between […]

Smartphones are becoming a combination of a mobile phone, a digital wallet and mini personal computer all rolled into one place which adds to the need for such virtual space. Virtualization of space or what is generally known as Mobile Virtualization Platform (MVP) include servers, storage and applications into a single solution to eliminate complexity, […]

Canadian Addiction Treatment Centres (CATC) is the largest multi-site organization devoted to treating Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) in Canada. CATC has implemented comprehensive protocols and a detail-rich model of care for patients with OUD. CATC has been generating practice summaries for each physician, comparing their outcomes to the peer group on factors that impact retention. […]

In 2014, the dams of Treaty #3 territory were overwhelmed by major continuous snowmelt and rain, causing mass flooding throughout the Rainy-Lake of the Woods watershed. To mitigate the damage that would be dealt to the Indigenous communities of the watershed by such events in the future, we will use remote sensing technologies and GIS […]

This research project will be used to help mining operations and other industrial proponents where applicable, ensure the integrity of their tailings ponds, reduce the risk to human life/health, and meet government regulations by reducing cost and logistic barriers to conducting tailings volume surveys. The goal is to verify that an autonomous vehicle can conduct […]
