The Edmonton Council for Early Learning and Care, the Muttart Foundation, the Community- University Partnership for the Study of Children, Youth and Families, and the United Way Capital Region partnered to survey Alberta parents/guardians about their early learning and child care arrangements from May to July 2022. Data were collected from 1,479 parents. A series […]

In the previous projects with TMX some unsupervised techniques have been explored to detect anomalies in trading for the derivative market. All have their pros and cons but they all have provided promising results. The first objective of this collaboration with TMX is to treat all these techniques that have been explored in previous projects; […]

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a common cancer imaging technique where FDG, a radioactive substance, is used to identify cancer in the body. FDG is preferentially taken up by cancer cells and creates distinct signals that are detected by the PET scanner. A limitation of FDG-PET is that FDG is not specific to cancer. Other […]

Digital Trust Test Bench (DTT) is a quality assurance tool for digital credentials, allowing governments and organizations to test digital credentials to ensure compatibility with other platforms. The cloud-based platform enables interoperability testing among technology components and solutions within the digital trust ecosystem. DTT is designed to be an all-in-one platform for digital trust ecosystem […]

This project aims to enhance smart farming by improving the scalability and accuracy of two commercial products, SWAT CAM and SWAT MAPS, owned by Croptimistic Technologies Inc. These products are used for precision mapping on over three million acres of land across four countries. The project will utilize machine learning to identify crop parameters such […]

The construction industry heavily relies on mobile cranes for the off-site modular construction, emphasizing safety in operations. Despite standardized hand signals, inadequate and interrupted communications between mobile crane signalmen on the ground and crane operators pose significant risks of accidents, especially during blind lifts or lifts in severe weather. This research project aims to develop […]

With the increasing demand to feed the growing population, agriculture in Southern Ontario remains important, but the reliance on fertilizers has led to many environmental problems in aquatic systems. Annual algae blooms occur every summer in Lake Erie as warm temperatures and a supply of nutrients from agriculture fields wash into these lakes. As algae […]

Physical activity and dairy intake during growth and development are each known to improve peak bone mass. Peak bone mass, the maximum amount of bone a person will have in their lifetime, is typically reached in the early 20’s in females and late 20’s in males. However, evidence suggests that young people do not consume […]

BC potato industry is facing a burning problem of finding low value for its second grade potatoes. The sponsor, Heppells Potato Corp, being the largest producer of potatoes in BC is facing the same problem of finding optimized value for its second grade potatoes. Currently these potatoes are just culled. But the market value of […]

Very little research has explored ultra-endurance running, particularly in females (15% of tested subjects). We therefore have a very limited understanding about human performance, and specifically female physiology, with ultra-distances >350 km. Lululemon Athletica inc. has sponsored an initiative ‘Project FURTHER’ whereby ten females will attempt to run as far as possible within a 6-day […]
