We have developed a device that is rapid, sensitive and adaptable to performing multiple assays to detect chemicals, biologicals, non-biologicals, salts, metals and pathogens to mention a few. Activity involved in this project will model the behaviour of sensors to better understand the output sensitive to the analyte of interest and the sensor configurations. This […]

The public greatly depends on a country’s health care providers to be sufficiently healthy to deliver care themselves. When the wellness of health-care workers suffers, then the health of the public at large is put in jeopardy. This project represents a ground-breaking collaboration between the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) who created a comprehensive mental health […]

Excessive use of antimicrobials results in the evolution of antimicrobial resistant microbes, and the infection caused by such microbes are known as antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections. AMR infections are on the rise and has a negative impact on the quality of life, healthcare system and ultimately on the economy. The current proposal aims at the […]

AltaML is an innovative company capitalizing on a major technological trend: artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, enabled by big data, are driving a fourth industrial revolution. AI will transform all industries, but traditional industries face challenges in implementing AI. AltaML has a unique business model to overcome barriers to adoption of AI solutions by industry, which […]

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a long-term condition that affects how people move and function in their daily lives. It can be challenging for individuals with PD and their families. To help improve the lives of people with PD, the Parkinson’s Association of Alberta has created a program that includes different activities throughout the day. These […]

In the energy sector, developing renewable energies such as carbon capture and utilization (CCU), bioenergy (biogas, biofuels, or green bio-chemicals), and hydrogen-based technology depends on improving catalytic technology. Technology providers in these sustainable areas are focused on developing better catalytic technology, while stakeholders must decide which technology to bet on. The challenge lies in the […]

Near-infrared (NIR) imaging systems play a vital role in human tissue imaging. These systems can facilitate various vital clinical applications. Such applications enable real-time metabolic monitoring, non-invasive imaging of the lymphatic system, and mapping of microvasculature blood flow. In this research, the problem to be addressed is the lack of accessibility to cheap near infrared […]

Traditionally, the Heston model has been calibrated using a combination of least squares, options inference and gradient methods. However, a new calibration technique has recently been developed based on the explicit solution and stochastic calculus techniques. This new method could greatly simplify and improve the accuracy of the process. The explicit price solution and the […]

A great deal of research supports the conclusion that a transition to a more plant-based food system in Canada would greatly help to improve health and environmental outcomes. Canadians for Responsible Food Policy [CRFP] is considering continuing or beginning to advocate for several concrete policies to support such a transition in Canada. This project will […]

This research project aims to revolutionize construction cost estimation by developing machine learning models for automating residential cost estimation in a prefabricated building company. The project focuses on two goals: creating a revenue forecasting system for business intelligence and automating core processes in the cost estimation department for efficiency and accuracy. The project involves comprehensive […]

Cultural food insecurity, which is the inability to acquire, afford, and eat the traditional foods of one’s ethnic origin is a form of food insecurity that disproportionately affects new immigrant, especially the Black identifying Canadians. However, research that explores alternative ways to diversity Canadian food systems to accommodate new immigrants and to allow for smooth […]
