Object occlusion detection

Sometimes an object is partially hidden by a physical object like fingers, book etc. or by digitally pasted artifacts like blurringof an area. The intern will be working on detecting these types of digital and physical occlusions on an object. At Jumio we encounter documents that are hidden or occluded by such masks. These documents […]

Multi-Domain Recommendation for Restaurants Using GNN Models

The student will develop a recommendation system for restaurants, proposing food selections to customers. This system will be based on GNN models to predict a customer’s need based on both user and order data. The data include previous purchases, data of dishes and similarity of users collected from online food orders. In the first phase […]

Development of an online tool for crowd movement simulation research

Crowds are everywhere and studying them is important for urban planning, transportation, evacuation, and safety at large public events. Simulation modelling lets us study crowd behaviour by simulating large numbers of individual pedestrians and seeing how they behave as a crowd in different, sometimes dangerous scenarios. Simulation allows us to study situations that would be […]

3D Brain lesion detection from MRI images

This project aims to detect 3D brain lesions automatically using machine learning and MRI images. Given an MRI image of a brain, the project will automatically detect any size lesion. The project will establish a baseline, as well as improvement over the baseline for which performance metrics will be validated. The partner organization benefits from […]

Méthode algorithmique d’apprentissage pour améliorer l’impact de systèmes de dialogue

Le stagiaire entreprendra la tâche d’améliorer la robustesse des systèmes de dialogue de la Banque nationale. Afin qu’un système de dialogue soit apprécié par les utilisateurs, il est primordial que cette technologie réponde de façon appropriée à une question. Une erreur propagera de la fausse information et diminuera la crédibilité de l’organisation, deux graves problèmes. […]

Applications of LIBS technology to lithium-ion battery materials characterization and process analysis

Few characterization techniques are available to study solid-state battery materials. The resolutions required to obtain insightful results are below 10 microns. Additionally, both information about the mineral phase for solid-state electrolytes and the elemental analysis are crucial for material research. Current methods have poor sensitivity to light elements such as lithium, therefore the need for […]

Impact of a protected essential oils on the intestinal microbiota of dairy cows

The intestinal microbiota is essential for enhanced gut health and adequate fiber digestion. Factors such as diet transition and the stress of parturition are associated with changes in the normal microbiota of cows. Microbiota manipulation to improve performance can be achieved by the use of feed additives, such as and essential oils and vitamins, but […]
