Develop a statistical model to predict the frequency and severity of contamination on oil and gas sites. Advanced statistical learning techniques will be employed to fully utilize the existing data and the data to be collected. The intern will work closely with colleagues in 360 to integrate domain knowledge into the model. The model will […]

Nanoacademic has recently released a commercial computer-aided design software package called QTCAD for quantum hardware based on spin qubits in semiconductors, one of the leading candidates for the implementation of a quantum computer. While several demonstrations of the tool in realistic operation conditions have already been completed with academic and industrial partners, these demonstrations were […]

Specialized legal technology aims to improve productivity by speeding up routine tasks. Unfortunately, current legal software suffers from unstable performance, steep learning curves, and a lack of user-friendliness. Innobridge challenges these issues with Smart Estate, a no-frills but smart application for legal conveyancing. This is the processing of property transactions, which requires the completion of […]

MixGenius works on automated musical production by real-time musical genre detection. High accuracy of genre detection for a variety of sub-genres is required for quality production and has yet to be achieved. The project involves researching available real-time high-accuracy musical genre detection methods and improving upon them, extracting each genre’s audio features, calibrating the algorithm […]

One metric of HVAC systems’ performance that is largely underestimated is the efficiency of air mixing in the room, determined by multiple factors including room dimensions, the selection of air inlets and outlets as well as their location in the room. Air mixing can have a significant effect on the energy consumption of HVAC systems […]

One crucial measure of heart function is how well it can pump blood from its ventricles, referred to as the ejection fraction (EF). One method of estimating the EF in Cardiac PET is to segment the myocardium of a ventricle on static gated images and compute the difference of the inner volume of the segmentation […]

Ce projet de recherche aura pour objectif d’optimiser l’exploitation et la maintenance de l’un des actifs d’Ivanhoé Cambridge, présent sur la Place Ville Marie. Pour ce faire, ce projet étudiera la piste du jumeau numérique comme outil principal afin d’atteindre l’objectif fixé. Un jumeau numérique est un modèle informatique de l’objet réel permettant de réaliser […]

Healthcare learners use simulations to train their skills prior to treating real patients. These simulations can happen in-person (e.g., role playing) or they can happen virtually using gamified educational software. One drawback of using many of these virtual simulations is that many do not provide the healthcare learner with force-based feedback (e.g., haptics). For example, […]

We propose to the develop a process whereby a semen sample can be initially assessed for sperm motility on-site followed by preservation of the remaining sample for transfer to a lab for quantitative sperm quality analyses. A microfluidic device using paper will be developed for the on-site motility test, whereby the device shows a colorimetric […]

The jurisdiction of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) covers densely urbanized areas, agricultural land, and natural features including forest, wetlands, and valley corridors. Connectivity between natural habitats is important for species resilience and maintaining biodiversity. When natural habitat areas are disconnected, they become fragmented. Fragmentation is especially problematic where it interrupts movement corridors […]

The Lake Midden site has produced one of the largest archaeological collections from Saskatchewan but remains largely undocumented. This project will study the thousands of animal remains from Lake Midden. This work, conducted in partnership with the Touchwood Agency Tribal Council, aims to better understand people’s relationships with animals at Lake Midden, including which animals […]

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a key component in the Mobile Next Generation Network, which is used by telecommunications operators throughout the world to provide access to multimedia and broadband services. As these services become more sophisticated, and as the number of clients rises drastically, it is increasingly expensive to install and operate a […]
