A quantitative risk prediction model is to be constructed. We need to determine if the available data will fit an existing model and validate the results or if a new statistical model is required. Each case will be allocated into one of three categories (low, moderate and high risk). This stratification must have clinical validity […]

Edson designs and manufactures innovative machines used for case packaging of goods, food, pharmaceuticals, and other products into corrugated boxes. Machine steps include automatic feeding of the boxes, folding, adding the product, and closing the box top. Market pressures require client ability to swiftly change over to package a new product. Edson must also be […]

This project aims to measure the credit risk of Sun Life structured assets portfolio. The objective is to evaluate the accuracy of different methods to assess the credit risk of these types of financial instruments and to evaluate their advantages and limitations. Two methods are proposed to assess structured finance assets risk: Loan Equivalent Approach […]

The proposed project is aimed at developing image and signal processing algorithms to enable the Christie VeinViewer® device to determine approximate depth of veins. This is a challenging research project due to the limited amount of information available and real-time fast processing required. The VeinViewer® uses a single infrared wavelength and a CMOS camera to […]

Datec Coatings Corporation has developed a new technology that enables them to print heating elements on various surfaces. One of these is a mica sheet, which is physically very similar to regular cereal box cardboard. By printing an image on another sheet of mica and placing both of these in a frame, it is possible […]

The proposal of the project Structure of Zero GHG Footprint Sustainable Community will benefit the community. The creation of the module design system using aquaponics methods, exploring the design of cooling system and thermal system will integrate the full process of producing sustainable food with zero pollution to the environment. As a researcher in this […]

The financial implications of time lost from work due to disability can be severe. Disability insurance coverage plans protect people from possible loss of income. We have found factors that predict the duration of disability benefit claims. However, it remains to be seen whether these associations are consistent. Improved understanding of modifiable factors associated with […]

The future of energy supply in Ontario is uncertain. We are faced with an aging nuclear fleet and pressure to avoid future energy generation near communities. Building demands are a strain on energy supplies. A solution is to reduce building energy needs while providing sufficient distributed energy generation on a community-scale. A net-zero energy (NZE) […]
