The objective of the proposed research program is to develop a flexible and unified multivariate framework for modeling the returns of financial assets. The program is innovative since it establishes closed-form formulas for an efficient and reliable calculation of risk measures and derivative prices. For financial institutions and government regulators, who are performing pricing and […]

This project is about a novel chip-based wireless power transfer system. Its integrated and flexible design eliminates the need for power cables for any DC device in homes, offices, parkades and power generating facilities. Unlike existing solutions, the system operates simultaneously with multi electricity requirement devices, has extended range, generates no heat, can transfer power […]

La nouvelle entreprise montréalaise Nüvü Caméras développe, manufacture et commercialise des caméras reconnues comme les plus sensibles au monde. En plus de quadrupler l’efficacité des télescopes en astronomie, la technologie EMCCD (Electron Multiplying Charge Coupled Device) de Nüvü Caméras permet d’augmenter la compréhension scientifique dans des domaines aussi importants que le diagnostic biomédical, la pharmaceutique […]

To meet growing demand, the aquaculture industry is building increasingly larger land-based farms. There are few locations which can provide enough fresh water for their operation and the industry is forced to reduce its water requirements further by modifying recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) to incorporate zero-exchange technology. Cooke Aquaculture Inc. is currently constructing a zero-exchange […]

Anomaly network traffic threat detection has been used in many companies to detect threats. Usually, it is deployed on-premises for efficiency and privacy reasons. Anomaly detection system usually consists of a machine learning algorithm that needs tons of time to train and test. Because each company may have different network setup, it is hard to […]

Most computer services nowadays are provided in cloud environments. Inevitably, every individual needs to use these environments when they have to use computer services. Considering cyber threats in the cloud infrastructure, security and privacy conservation of one is really challenging. Out of date techniques are no more executable in these infrastructures. However, machine learning algorithms […]

Many communities across Canada are addressing global climate change by reducing local greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and are looking for innovative and cost-effective tools to assist their climate mitigation efforts. Development cost charges (DCCs) are monies that local governments collect from developers to recoup some of the infrastructure-related costs resulting from new development. A DCC […]

Le projet vise à développer une version adaptée à une clientèle d’adultes consultant en clinique privée d’une grille permettant d’établir si l’individu présente des caractéristiques qui pourraient compromettre son suivi en psychothérapie. Une telle grille permettrait de mieux outiller les professionnels et de les aider à orienter les clients qui se présentent pour recevoir des […]

Security has become increasingly important as cyberattacks are more prominent. Despite advances in security technologies there’s still a need for a new security architecture that is simply adaptable and scalable to different and evolving security requirements of various organizations. This project will study the latest technologies and solutions in the field of Cybersecurity that are […]

Dans notre société numérique connectée, l’équipement électronique consomme une quantité importante d’énergie, dont environ la moitié est dédiée au refroidissement essentiel pour le maintien des performances. Le but du projet ‘STREAMS Plus’ est de développer une solution de gestion thermique adaptative pour maintenir la performance des dispositifs et systèmes microélectroniques à leur meilleur, tout en […]

Rangelands store carbon, regulate water, and conserve biodiversity. This research will study the effect of cattle grazing on wet meadow rangelands and their soils. Specifically, this project will measure the effect of changes in plants on soil nematodes. Soil nematodes are important in the cycling of nutrients and carbon and help sustain soil health. We […]

Bicycle and pedestrian counts are important data for the planning and design of safe roads. However, these data need to be inspected for quality, a time-consuming task. Part of this project is to make this project simpler, quicker and more accurate. Installing pedestrian and bicycle counters across an entire city road network is not financially […]
