The goal of this project is to incorporate AI to complement and upgrade existing functions in myTE. We plan to invest in 3 features: thematic analysis, data interaction and web analytics. In our current version, myTE compiles all comments in learners’ feedback and presents them in their original form to the users. Using AI, the […]

Stroke, a leading global cause of death and disability, often results from the rupture of dangerous fatty deposits, known as plaques, in the neck arteries. The current method of assessing stroke risk using 2D ultrasound is limited by operator dependency and lacks a 3D structure assessment, leading to misdiagnoses and re-scans. Our project aims to […]

This project aims to enable controllable generation of expressive, speech-driven facial animation in video games and multimedia. Current methods use procedural tools to animate mouth movements given speech clips, but they lack realism. This research proposes to develop a new approach for controllable speech-driven facial animations, combining the realism of recent mesh deformation methods with […]

L’alimentation durable est une composante essentielle de l’économie visant à un développement apte à répondre aux besoins du présent, sans compromettre la capacité des générations futures à répondre aux leurs. Pour ce faire, l’alimentation durable préconise la consommation de produits locaux et, en ce qui concerne les produits maraîchers, cultivés dans le respect de l’environnement. […]

This research focuses on the development of machine learning and natural language processing techniques for automated textual dialog systems called chatbots. More specifically, we will develop algorithms to allow chatbots to adapt to new topics and concepts in open ended domains. We will also develop algorithms to recognize the emotions of users through their text […]

Au Québec, l’entrepreneuriat collectif compte 11200 entreprises collectives avec un chiffre d’affaires cumulé de 47,8 milliards de dollars et emploie près de 220.000 personnes (Institut de la statistique du Québec, 2019). Le Chantier de l’économie sociale a lancé différents programmes de soutien aux entrepreneurs collectifs. Dans ce sillage, le présent projet de recherche vise à […]

Due to chemical reactivity of components in new small modular reactor (SMR) fuel types, e.g., sodium, the federal nuclear regulator has identified spent SMR fuel as an R&D priority area. With multiple sodium fast reactors, including TerraPower’s Natrium reactor, and ARC Clean Technology Canada’s (ARC) ARC-100 reactor, planned for deployment in Canada within the next […]

Additional research is required to fully understand the effects of Capsaicinoids, a supplement that contains the active ingredient in hot peppers. Previous studies have demonstrated its ability to reduce appetite and weight. However, there is lacking information regarding the effects of this supplement on cardiovascular health and exercise performance. The intern will be responsible for […]

Explore the use of virtual fencing collars to contain cattle within pasture boundaries on an operational level. This has not been done before by other research, and no other research has been done in mountainous regions. This would fill in gaps in research that have not been explored yet. On top of that research is […]

The Proposal is about centralizing the reporting system an organization having a number of properties distributed in different regions of Canada. Daily revenue report is created at each property at the end of the day and sent to the owner. The owner has to go through a number of reports for getting an accurate view […]

The objective of the project is to conduct a comprehensive needs assessment of the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) population in Newfoundland and Labrador. While prevalence rates of ASD suggest that there are a large number of cases, the needs of this community are not well defined. Furthermore, we anticipate there will be significant differences in […]

C-Therm is teaming up with the University of New Brunswick to develop a highly digitized implementation of the 3-omega method for thermal conductivity measurements of thin films, such as those employed to manage heat in electric vehicle (EV) batteries. In contrast with traditional transient hot-wire techniques, the 3-omega method operates in the frequency domain, allowing […]
