The goal of this partnership is to develop data-driven tools that will empower individual Canadians to improve their financial resilience and reduce their levels of financial stress. Individuals will complete a short questionnaire; based on their responses, will be assigned to one of three groups – financially stressed, financially coping or financially comfortable – giving […]

The project will develop a conceptual framework to quantify the value of nature based recreation. The tool will focus on improvements in physical health, improvements in mental health and health benefits associated with improved ecosystem protection. The tool will provide provincial, municipal and community organizations a mechanism to support informed program, policy and planning decisions […]

Innovasea produces fish tags and receivers to track the presence and motion of fish and marine mammals while underwater. Fish tracking (acoustic telemetry) is used by researchers worldwide to determine the abundance and habits of marine life, make decisions about fishing seasons and allowed catches, and help protect marine mammals. Innovasea has developed a novel […]

The use of new technologies, such as Gallium Nitride electronic switches, allows very efficient and compact power converters to be manufactured at reasonable cost. This is particularly interesting in applications such as electric vehicles. This project focuses on developing software simulation models and techniques for deploying these latest high voltage switches, in particular focussing on […]

Ces nanoperles constituent un nouveau type de materiau a base de carbone avec des proprietes exceptionne!!es pouvant assurer leur utilisation dans de multiples applications e!ectro-optiques. […]

The project is dedicated to the investigation and testing of environment-friendly, energy-efficient freezing technology for the remediation of mine-impacted water. This technology could be beneficial and economically feasible for the regions with cold weather conditions and vulnerable to anthropogenic impact. The primary research objectives of current project are to continue and advance laboratory experiments started […]

Ce projet consiste à extraire la nature des accès informatiques des employés d’une organisation et les consolider afin de permettre au gestionnaire de l’employer ou à un auditeur d’avoir une vue d’ensemble des accès informatiques de ses employés. Les employés qui arrivent ou quittent l’organisation, ou changent d’emploi dans la même organisation exigent une révision […]

To communicate with their end users, businesses regularly produce written documents such as letters, notices, statements, etc. in various languages. A set of rules are usually used to ensure that information in these documents is ‘correct’ and consistent across languages and communication channels. However, with the increasing volume and variety of information being sent out […]

Plusieurs fondations, comme la fondation Marie-Vincent, sont particulièrement touchées dans le contexte de la crise actuelle de la COVID. Une partie importante des initiatives de financements étant normalement effectuée lors d’événements physiques d’envergure, l’obtention du financement pour maintien des activités est une préoccupation. Afin de supporter les fondations et organismes à but non lucratif particulièrement […]

Predictive modeling of financial data, especially trading activity or asset prices, is a very challenging task. There are a number of novel approaches to feature engineering, data preparation and model architectures that aim to mitigate some of the problems that arise from non-stationarity and other issues typically found in financial time series data. This project […]

A solar wireless charger makes use of the power of the sun to charge your mobile phone. The benefit of this portable device is that it makes it possible to charge your phone outdoor or when someone does not have access to electricity right away. It also helps people in undeveloped countries where access to […]

Multiple situations require cross-lingual searching: lawyers reviewing litigation documents; intelligence analysts data mining open source data; and patent attorneys investigating technical documents. To imitate cross-lingual search, people use online translation platforms to find the equivalent terms laboriously and then re-execute the query multiple times in various languages. The commercial search industry hasn’t seen much demand […]
