Utilisé en sécurité de l’information, le tableau de bord de gestion (TBG) est un outil visuel permettant de faire le suivi de la performance en affichant graphiquement un ensemble de métriques, représentant notamment l’état des risques et des incidents. L’objectif principal de cette recherche est de créer un modèle de représentation visuelle de métriques de […]

Le stage de recherche sera fait avec le Nihtaauchin – Chisasibi center for sustainability (NCCS), un OSBL voué au renforcement de l’autonomie dans la communauté cri de Chisasibi via différents projets durables qui combine l’innovation et l’expertise Eeyou (crie) d’une manière qui respecte et profite à la nation crie de Chisasibi. Au cours des trois […]

The proposed project aims to improve the prediction of mineral resources for better decision making throughout a mining project, that is, to decide whether to reject or to process extracted material using machine learning algorithms. This will help maximize profit for mining companies while minimizing environmental impact as the correct material will be processed more […]

This project will investigate the efficiency of the ferrosilicon smelting process by determining electrical resistance of the raw materials. Ferrosilicon is produced in a submerged-arc furnace, and requires large amounts of electrical energy. The process requires quartz, iron, and carbon as the raw materials. Each of the three input materials have different electrical properties that […]

La réalisation de ce projet de recherche mènera à l’obtention d’informations pertinentes relatives à la conception et à l’opération d’une technologie simple de biofiltration permettant l’abattement des émissions de méthane (un puissant gaz à effet de serre), des odeurs et des composés odorants émis par des bâtiments agricoles. Cette technologie est 1) construite à partir […]

Evolution of the on-ice sport equipment, namely skate boots and blades, has been primarily driven by the users; however, there is a lack of scientific evidence supporting the link between skate boot/blade design and set up as it translates to optimal on ice skating technique and performance. We are proposing a new academic-industrialsport research collaboration […]

NonDestructive Testing (NDT) is a key discipline in major industrial sectors to ensure quality and safety. Several methods are regularly employed in areas ranging from x-ray or ultrasound testing of metallic or composite components in the automotive and aerospace industries, to the inspection of petrochemical ducts using eddy currents or acoustical emissions. The present proposal […]

This project seeks to build on existing research regarding the current challenges in social innovation work in Alberta, as articulated in Alberta Social Innovation (ABSI) Connect’s 2016 Report on the Future of Social Innovation. To accomplish this, the intern will interview people in Edmonton who are from multiple marginalized identities (e.g. racialized, identifying as a […]

Locating and identifying multiple individuals in a scene are challenging tasks in real-time video surveillance applications. Although tracking allows to locate a person over time, automatically tracking multiple targets under real-world conditions is a challenging problem due to changes in appearance, occlusions and complex backgrounds. Target models are typically adapted for robust discriminative tracking, although […]

Conventionally, structural Al sheets are produced via casting thick ingots using Direct Chill (DC) technique, followed by an energy-intensive reduction procedure to the final thickness. A new production process developed by CASTechnology, termed Thin Strip Casting (TSC) technique, can directly output thin sheets, thus reducing the cost as well as the carbon foot print associated […]

In response to the number of residents at Louis Brier Home living with dementia, this project seeks to implement environmental modifications to support resident orientation (specifically related to the hallways and door frames). Based on the data analysis from the observations and focus groups, recommendations will be made for modest physical environmental modifications to promote […]

Many young adults are affected by tooth sensitivity stimulated by eating or drinking something hot, cold, sweet or acidic, which impacts their life quality. Tooth sensitivity can start when the softer, inner part of the tooth called dentin becomes exposed. The dentin contains a large number of parallel microtubules that run from the outside of […]
