Facing looming infrastructure crises, municipalities around the world are implementing asset management policies to maximize level of service to residents through optimized scheduling of maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement of assets. Scheduling optimization problems have been studied extensively in computer science and it is believed that an exact solution to such a problem would take an […]

“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

We propose to combine large language models with transdermal optical imaging (a novel contactless imaging technology we invented to decode human psychophysiology) to develop an AI-assisted tutor to teach children mathematical problem-solving while monitoring their psychophysiology. This research endeavors to bridge the gap between technological innovation and pedagogical efficacy. The seamless integration of these advancements […]

E-quester is a team of passionate researchers and engineers revolutionizing carbon capture with our innovative CO2 direct air capture (DAC) technology developed at the University […]

The project will develop a data mining strategy on how to efficiently use Geotab’s data from multiple sources to isolate network connectivity logs in Geotab’s data, interpolate the GPS coordinates associated with network logs, acquire fuel consumption rates and related opportunities. It will involve a literature survey of the existing algorithms to gain valuable insights. […]

The City of Toronto operates one of the largest and most diverse fleets in North America. Despite City’s commitment to road safety, incidents involving municipal fleet vehicles remain a challenge. This project ultimately aims to reduce incidents and improve fleet safety among light-duty vehicle fleet drivers within the City’s Transportation Services Division by targeting risky […]

Mobile robots equipped with chemical, radiological and explosive detectors are deployed during events where CBRNE materials have been dispersed; sending robots provides key reconnaissance data while reducing personnel exposure. Operators rely on camera views and on-board detectors to drive the robots using joysticks, and they have to control every aspect of the robot operation. Live […]

The current project aims to engage with adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities and their families/caregivers and service providers to gain an understanding of best strategies and practices around engagement of brain and mental health. The expected benefit of this program is to support CAMH and the Azrieli Adult Neurodevelopmental Centre in their goal of improving the […]
