SOTI MoblControl is an enterprise mobllity management solution that secures and manages, mobile devices and the mobile data across all endpomts. To ensure end-to-end security, MobiControl encrypts all communication between the MobiControl Manager and the Deployment Server uslng Secure Socket layer (SSL). The SSL Is a cryptographic protocol that is use widely for secure communication. […]

Manganese is a critical element in steelmaking – the third most common element after iron and carbon – and has no satisfactory replacement. The conventional process for producing metallic manganese is energy- and carbon-intensive, operating at 1400-1600°C and consuming on the order of 1 tonne of carbon reductant for every 2 tonnes of manganese produced. […]

Drone Delivery Canada (DDC) designs and operates high performance Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS) to deliver payloads between depots and warehouses. The DDC engineering department is looking to design and deploy a ground-based system to track and point at the Remotely Piloted Aerial Vehicle (RPAV) during flight in real-time. However, DDC’s RPAS must be able […]

The pre-trained Bi-directional Encoder Representation from Transformers (BERT) model had proven to be a milestone in the field of Neural Machine Translation, achieving new state-of-the-art performances on many tasks in the field of Natural Language Processing. Despite its success, it has been noticed that there are still a lot of room for improvement, both in […]

The goal of this project is to use naturally occurring bacterial partners to improve the flavour and nutritional properties of plants grown in hydroponic and aquaponics systems. This study will investigate ability of plant associated bacteria to alter the metabolic profile of select vegetables and leafy greens. Vertical farming is an increasingly popular solution for […]

In this project, we propose to expand support of SOTI’s MobiControl (MC) to Tizen Operating System. SOTI MobiControl has assisted numerous enterprises to overcome the management issues due to lack of security and improve business performance by monitoring the health and safety of employees, and increasing productivity, with the introduction of wearables and other IoT […]

This work aims to explore software and hardware co-optimization for deep neural network (DNN) inference applications. Once a model is trained to sufficient accuracy, the model is used to make inference or predictions based on this trained model. With increasing performance, more people are using these models for tasks such as translation, self-driving cars and […]

Health disparities arise as a result of long-standing societal disadvantage and discrimination. As machine learning models become more popular in the healthcare sector, understanding of current health disparities becomes even more critical. Without careful management of existing biases, the models can inherit and amplify health disparities, leading to highly undesirable clinical outcomes. This project focuses […]

Based on the user’s geo-location, timestamp and other attributes (eg. time of day, past visit history and app behavior categories, etc.), a machine learning algorithm can be developed to find which cluster the users belong to. Overall, the data of geo-location and timestamp are used to roughly locate the potential clusters. This project will involve […]

Research is rapidly progressing in enhancing the Artificial Intelligence of Robotics. One backbone of this rapid change lies in Deep Learning. Deep Learning refers to new algorithms that are capable of learning behaviors after being trained by several thousands or even millions of examples of what should be done given an input. My project will […]

Kindred offers eCommerce retailers a solution to assist with rapid order fulfilment from their distribution centres. The solution (SORT) is a combination of a so-called put-wall and a humanoid robot. The robot picks up items from orders, scans them, and puts each item in a cubby of the put-wall according to the scan code. The […]

Question Answering (QA) system automatically answer questions raised by users in natural languages, and it is a crucial component of a human-machine conversation system. A typical QA system collects human written question-answer groups and structures them in a database system. However, in order to answer questions that are semantically similar to the questions stored in […]
