Two overarching approaches to allocate the aggregate risk capital stand out nowadays. These are the top-down approach that entails that the allocation exercise is imposed by the corporate centre, and the bottom-up approach that implies that the allocation of the aggregate risk to business units is informed by these units. Briefly, the top-down allocations start […]

Among the applications of computer science in the field of health care and biomedicine, the processing of clinical patient records is one of the increasingly important topics for improving the Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems. A practical use of EHR systems is to help improve the decision making process for the physicians. The goal of […]

Novel view synthesis is the process of generating new images from an unseen perspective, given at least one image of a scene. There may be more than one probable novel view associated with each unseen perspective, an assumption made by existing methods. This simplifying assumption prevents these methods from being applied to more difficult novel […]

Acculogic develops state-of-the-art testers for short-batch electronic circuit boards (ECBs). The order in which the required tests are performed affects the amount of shuttle and probe movements required between the tests, and this affects the overall efficiency of the test procedure. Unique characteristics of the problem (e.g. the ability to move one set of probes […]

The proposed research project will explore the question: How can existing mechanisms (National Marine Conservation Area Reserve (NMCAR), Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCA), and Management Agreements with Parks Canada in the Southern Gulf Islands (GINPR)) be used to uphold Indigenous W?SÁNE? laws, governance structures, values, and responsibilities within W?SÁNE? territory? Exploring the benefits, limits, […]

The intelligent control of space cameras project is concerned with development of the next generation of space cameras. Currently, there is a large gap between the onboard capabilities of standard commercial cameras and those currently in space (examples include image resolution, onboard storage, advanced scene understanding and exposure control). Closing this gap for space camera […]

This project aims to conduct a comprehensive review of existing power line (PL) data processing procedure used in practice and to design and develop the new automatic workflow by integrating start-of-the-art algorithms with current data processing chain. This leads to the establishment of an innovative framework on automatic PL feature detection and reconstruction from LiDAR […]

Non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) is cause by accumulation of lipid droplets in liver. NAFLD is the starting point of liver disease and later develop into nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis and finally hepatocellular carcinoma. Since there is no specific therapeutics for NAFLD-related liver diseases, development of new drug for NAFLD/NASH is actively on-going. Recently, application of […]

Dance is used with increasing frequency as a health intervention and in research designs; despite this increased use, the techniques and mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. Through the use of novel neuroimaging methods that allow for recording of data while subjects are freely moving through space, I aim to elaborate a neurobiological model of dance […]

My research examines the relationship between business, labour, and the state over the development and regulation of labour markets. For my dissertation I am proposing a comprehensive case study of the trajectory of Canadian and Australian labour market regulation over the post-war period. I adopt a broad understanding of labour market policy comprising employment/industrial relations, […]

Individuals from diverse backgrounds are routinely exposed to a second language, whether it is through formal education, within the community, or at home. As such, many individuals are consuming stories in a language other than their native tongue. Although past research has shown that sequential bilinguals typically report weaker emotional experiences when processing emotional content […]

The ambitious goal of my proposal is to explore low-energy transfers to triangular libration points that is the final frontier in Earth-Moon system. As an innovative idea, the role of solar gravity in transfer mechanism will be revealed by chaos theory. With the development of space technology, the booming desire on triangular libration point urges […]
