Continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring is highly of assistance for detection of the major public health issue which is cardiovascular problems. Nowadays the BP monitoring technique which are commonly used are mostly using an uncomfortable cuff that makes continuous monitoring impossible since it slows the blood flow. However, measuring continues blood pressures are necessarily and […]

Les impacts des changements climatiques pourraient avoir des impacts considérables sur les forêts (augmentation des feux de forêts, hausse des épidémies d’insectes, etc) et sur les communautés qui en dépendent pour assurer leur bien-être économique, social et culturel. Une solution prometteuse et nouvelle consiste à renforcer les caractéristiques sociales (cohésion, capital politique, diversification économique) de […]

Research and develop a machine learning application to detect fraud in health insurance claims. The project will seek to understand how machine learning can contribute significantly to health insurance fraud detection, and develop a methodology to yield the best results using available data and current machine learning best practices. The output of the project will […]

Lake size and shape are important factors determining the function and structure of lake ecosystems. Moreover, Lake morphology is important for both biotic and abiotic processes, including species richness of zooplankton, macrophytes, and fishes. In particular, Ontario has tens of thousands of natural ecosystems that make up a large part of Canada’s dominant share ofthe […]

A quantum network built on RBC infrastructure and performing secure commercial transactions using quantum-generated secure keys in the integrated classical communication network.

Le Réseau Zec regroupe 63 zecs (Zone d’Exploitation Contrôlée) qui couvrent 48 000km2. Ces territoires sont multi-usages et l’on y pratique des activités récréatives telles la chasse, la pêche et le camping, ainsi que des activités forestières. Elles sont généralement situées sur les terres de l’état puis administrées par des organismes à but non-lucratif qui […]

The Nisga’a Business Alliance Corporation is creating a strategy for economic development activities within the Nation and requires innovative business research to facilitate this initiative. As such, this research cluster is comprised of six projects: • Project 1: Commercial Recreation Tenure Investigation • Project 2: Harbour Enhancement Feasibility Study • Project 3: Nisga’a Nation Tourism […]

Durham Region recently created a plan to help guide future decisions about adapting to climate change. The plan shows how extreme future weather is expected to be and identifies many ways that the cities and towns in the region and other agencies that deliver services like water and electricity need to be prepared. Some municipalities […]

In this project, a vehicle occupancy detection system will be developed for automatic monitoring of HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) and HOT (High Occupancy Toll) lanes. The system makes use of machine vision along with artificial intelligent algorithms, developed based on deep learning, to detect number of passengers in a vehicle in real-time. The developed technology […]

The dramatic trend of the first decade of the 21st century in the information technology industry was the emergence of society?scale systems: online services such as Google, eBay, iTunes, Yahoo!, Twitter, and Facebook that routinely served millions of simultaneously?connected users. These systems gave rise to entirely new programming models and systems problems: management of the […]

First Nations are developing protocols and web- and mobile-based software tools (i.e. “systems”) to assist them with data management for planning and decision making by Stewardship Offices. These systems are key capacity building tools that will enable First Nations’ participation and leadership in the conservation and responsible use of renewable and non-renewable resources in their […]

Le projet global vise le développement d’un scanner de tomographie d’émission par positrons (TEP) dédié à l’imagerie des animaux de taille intermédiaire (chien, macaque) et du cerveau humain. L’avantage principal du scanner sera sa résolution spatiale deux fois meilleure que tout ce qui existe à l’heure actuelle, permettant notamment l’imagerie des processus biochimiques à l’intérieur […]
