Epilepsy is a difficult disorder to assess and even more so automatically. It is observed that in REM sleep epileptiform activity differs from other states of consciousness. REM sleep could hold the key to a better understanding of epilepsy, however robust features that work on different people and types of epilepsies are required. The purpose […]

This project – Canadian Architectural Education, Accreditation, and Licensing trends in a Changing Environment – partners with the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB) to comparatively analyze quantitative and qualitative data concerning challenges and opportunities facing academic and professional sectors in Canada. The intention is to better understand past changes, current states, and future trajectories so […]

High risk driving, (e.g., speeding, impaired, and distracted driving), is a major contributing factor to most traffic collision fatalities in Canada. An increase in perceived risk of being caught by police for risky driving has been shown to reduce the behaviour. Differences in the commitment to and effectiveness of enforcement is strongly impacted by the […]

The industrial scale manufacturing automation largely works because of robotic systems which are preprogrammed to reliably carry out the same sequence of steps over and over again. As a result, when scenarios change, or become more complex, robotic systems need to be re-programmed. Moreover, in high value added manufacturing applications, it is impractical to program […]

The Long-Term Development (LTD) 3.0 framework and its previous versions have been distributed by Sport Canada to national sport organizations since 2005 to improve participation and physical activity levels across the country, although the LTD’s acceptance and rollout has not been evaluated. Therefore, the purpose of this study will be to speak with national and […]

The natural land cover of Canada such as native grasslands and wetlands are not just Canadian landscapes or ecosystems, they are also Canadian heritage and identity. Our land cover is constantly under threat as a result of climate change and human footprint. The role of this research proposal is to build an accurate natural land […]

The aim of the proposed research cluster is to advance the state of the art of secure operation of power systems by developing new methods and tools. A power system is expected to perform within specified operating boundaries of system voltage and frequency under normal conditions when there are no component outages. Further, it should […]

Foqus Technologies Inc. provides Software solutions based on Quantum Information algorithms and Machine Learning techniques to enhance the sensitivity of Magnetic Resonance Technologies such as MRI and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). The challenges to building up a sustainable and scalable business include how to seek the right partners and customers, how to deeply understand market […]

Efficient animal production with a reduced environmental impact requires healthy animals, higher performance, increased feed conversion, and the use of available nutrients. The improvement of those traits could be accomplished by understanding how the gut microbiome plays a vital role in nutrient digestion and feed efficiency. Also, applying a reliable sorting tool allows identifying pigs […]

A wireless sensor has been designed to monitor overhead line temperature. The economic importance of this issue is to maximize the power transfer capacity of the lines. The sensor has two main parts, a local interrogator and a passive battery-less sensor. The power to turn on sensor comes from interrogator. The sensor measures the temperature, […]

The utilization of meat by-products (e.g., heart, liver, kidney, intestines, and tongue) is necessary due to their adverse effects on environment. Livestock by-products represent about 52% of the cattle live weight. Since greater amounts of animals live weight is rendered unfavorable for regular consumption, it becomes important to develop technologies for the effective utilization of […]

Trail cameras and similar technology are increasingly used to monitor wildlife in a passive, non-invasive way. With the improvement of camera and data storage technology, researchers increasingly face challenges with the time-consuming and inefficient nature of manually sorting photos. Artificial intelligence and image recognition technology have huge potential for analysing large image-based datasets and greatly […]
