The main objective of this research study is to investigate the potential of proteins from barley as functional ingredients and to study their interactions with some selected flavors. Three specific objectives will be addressed throughout this project. Barley protein will be isolated and qualified, including determining its functionality properties (ex. emulsification, foaming), and the effects […]

The project ? Strategic Asset Allocation from a Canadian Investment Perspective ? will focus on the efficient allocation design for a Canadian investor. This will be achieved throughforecasting of long-term (5-10 years) expected returns of Canadian fixed income and equities, as well as US and global equities. The forecasts mostly rely on economic/fundamental analysis such […]

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a significant health problem mainly because of its plausible prolonged sequelae and lack of objective measures for recovery. There are usually some disabling persistent post-TBI symptoms (mostly neurological) that do not respond to the current clinical and physical rehabilitation. This proposal aims to investigate the effect of a promising treatment […]

This proposed research will create a corporate website as well as content management system, which will be developed at and for Side Effects Software. The main objectives of this applied research are (1) redesign the corporate website and services attached; (2) ensure the security, reliability, and scalability of the system; (3) test the application efficiently […]

Designers often turn to traditional or digital whiteboards (i.e., SMART Kapp) during meetings to discuss designs created in complex design software (i.e., AutoCAD). However, the transition of content from these advanced tools to and from the whiteboard can be highly disruptive to the overall sense of immersion in the design task. For instance, reproducing a […]

3D object detection and pose estimation (ODPE) is an important area in computer vision, which has many real world applications such as robotics and augmented reality. Estimating an accurate pose from RGB cameras alone is challenging. Given the increased popularity of RGBD sensors, such as Microsoft Kinect, we propose a hybrid method for ODPE based […]

The internship will be divided into two parts (4 months each). In the first half, I will be working with Freshbooks´ IOS product. They currently use apple’s data storage called Core Data. It’s an internal data storage system that is built-in to the phone, and allows the application to work without an internet connection. I […]

The proposed research project is around conducting feasibility studies on the purification and conditioning of industrial hemicellulosic C5 sugars from a number of potentially commercial wheat straw liquor fractions. The research will propose experiments where data for the ultimate evaluation of enzymatic hydrolysis vs. a selected comparative list of acid hydrolysis can be included. The […]

The Recon Jet is an eyewear that is targeted towards cyclists and runners. The Recon jet is attractive because it displays the athlete’s performance, such as maximum speed and acceleration in real-time using the Recon Jet h ads-up display technology. The current Recon Jet has a GPS receiver and onboard sensors that track the athlete […]

To support the development of a developers’ toolkit for educational digital applications that use mathematics content, Erudite Science is creating a library of mathematics content and functions. Because mathematics is such a vast field, typical application functions such as search, manipulation, and inference, frequently return irrelevant results. The search process can be facilitated through the […]

Shear zone-hosted, or orogenic, gold deposits are a significant mineral resource in the Superior Province of Canada. This study will investigate the nature and genesis of gold mineralisation in the Red Lake area of the Uchi subprovince. Recent exploration by Bounty Gold Corp. has identified Au mineralisation in the Laird Lake area close to the […]

Asset management systems are becoming essential tools that help municipalities in infrastructure planning and management decisions. Additionally, building effective user experience solutions is an important factor in the success of any solution. The project objectives will be to investigate methods for building personalized user experiences and interfaces for the core of the company’s platform for […]
