The goal of the proposed research project is to assist the Association of Early Childhood Educators of Alberta (AECA) in building their understanding of the needs of early childhood educators so they can advocate for evidence-informed outcomes as decisions are being made on their behalf on how the bilateral funding is to be spent to […]

This project will study a new way to measure the risk of falls for elderly people in hospitals and clinics. The technology is called Markerless Motion Capture, which uses a camera to track how patients move without any markers or sensors on their body. The study will see if this technology can help identify patients […]

This research project focuses on the integration anonymized signals from sensors. The capture of this data and application provides enhancement and personalization and additional clarity of information to optimize the value of benefits and features for FutureCite membership services.

This project will outline step-by-step how to make fair financial models that do not depend on a person’s private information such as age, gender and race. It is aimed to be a guide to use machine-learning tools and adding defendable mathematical theory to improve previously existing models that have problems with producing biased results. As […]

Mentoring is one identified way to support young adults as they transition out of care and are faced with the many demands of adulthood. Young adults transitioning out of care have unique mentoring needs. In recognition of these distinctive needs, a specialized mentor program manual will be developed after consulting with a variety of key […]

Breast cancer is the most common cancer (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) in 109 countries including Canada. Approximately 70% of the breast cancer surgeries are breast-conserving lumpectomy procedures. Histopathology analysis typically require 2-4 days, resulting in the need for a second surgery if a margin is positive. Perimeter Medical is developing advanced Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) […]

Urban stormwater ponds present an opportunity for aquatic biodiversity conservation within cities. However, stormwater ponds receive city runoff and other effects of urbanization, which may mean that only certain species can live in them. A landscape-scale comparison of urban and rural pond biodiversity has not been performed in Canada. We will sample aquatic insect biodiversity […]

Members of FMMN are concerned about the cumulative impacts of industrial development on the land, air, water and wildlife in the Fort McKay area. As active users of the land, community members have intimate knowledge […]

Nowadays, our data is stored and processed in the cloud, and there are increasing privacy concerns. Federated Learning (FL) has recently emerged to allow users to keep their data private and collaboratively train machine learning models. To ensure that no client data can be revealed, there are multiple challenges in designing a system to be […]

Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a description increasingly used to refer to aviation turbine fuel (jet fuel) that is produced from renewable and sustainable resources. The use of SAF for commercial air transport holds the promise of reducing the fossil fuel footprint of this industry. However, in North America it is at present not legal […]

Weyerhaeuser Drayton Valley Lumber Mill has employed continuous monitoring of vibration for all the critical rotating assets in the mill to detect failures in early stage and prevent failures. Continuous monitoring is achieved through sensors mounted on the equipment and each sensor collects real-time vibration data of the equipment. Real-time vibration data give an understanding […]
