People should never have to worry about getting an infection while in the hospital or in a long-term care home. Yet every year, many Canadians suffer harm and, in some cases, death following the development of an infection while receiving healthcare. Counting and reporting these infections is a very important step in the prevention of […]

The COVID-19 crisis has developed, and not unjustifiably, a strong data aspect, requiring to handle, store and exchange large amounts of data in an efficient and secure way, not only among hospitals and clinics, but also between government services globally. In this project, we propose the development of an extendible prototype of a big data […]

Food Convergence and Integrity (FCI) Canada is being formed to help agri-food companies mitigate the disruptions of Covid-19, increase interactions and innovations among Canadian agrifood companies and enable new agrifood business streams. Through its member platform, it will enhance resilience and competitiveness of the Canadian agri-food sector, resulting also in increased food security for Canadians. […]

The evaluation of the wind resource and its associated energy production over the life cycle of the wind power project is one of the most important elements to determine the profitability of a wind power project since a bank bases its decision on the energy production that is estimated to occur with a 99% probability. […]

Effective anti-viral therapies are required to treat individuals infected by the SARS-Cov-2 virus, the causative agent of COVID-19. So far, only repurposed drugs have been investigated as treatment to fight SARS-Cov-2 infection. The goal of the project is to use our custom yeast-based screening platform in collaboration with the artificial intelligence algorithms of InVivo AI […]

A typical production line in electronics generates an important quantity of data which is generally ignored and unused. Tack Verification increases efficiency of electronics manufacturing companies by collecting and transforming operational data into actionable insights and key performance indicators. The project consists of the research and primary validation of artificial intelligence models allowing discovery of […]

La refraction de la lumiere fait en sorte que les images vues au travers d’un parebrise sont deformees. Si la forme du verre est connue, cette deformation peut etre modelisee. Puisque !es parebrises sont generalement piut6t plats, les effets de la refraction sont peu visibles a l’reil nu. Cependant, la presence de plus en plus […]

PemPem develops tools to ensure product traceability in informal supply chains using AI. These informal supply chains employ over 60% of the working population worldwide. They typically have highly inefficient operations due to very limited access to information and a reliance on opaque word-of-mouth coordination. While PemPem has started solving the problem of collecting data […]

A frequently occurring problem in face verification in Jumio is that stock face detectors find multiple faces in the input image. The decision which one should be selected for the face verification step is not clear. Common reasons being, users submitting a single image with both selfie and document id. There can be other people, […]

In this project we will look at tools to represent the content of an image and the relationships between its salient objects. The purpose of these tools is not only to enumerate the object represented in an image and identify their surroundings but also to describe how these entities are interacting with each other. We […]
