Developing Low-Cost Sensors for Rapid Field Estimation of Soil Properties

There is an increasing demand for high resolution soil information to support precision agriculture. One of the tools that has been a focus of research to help meet this demand is the development of proximal soil sensing using reflectance spectroscopy. The advantage reflectance spectroscopy is that it is rapid, non-destructive, and can test for multiple […]

Analytical Characterization of JZP-341 (Higher Order Structure)

York University and Jazz Pharmaceuticals are undertaking a project to accelerate development of their Leukemia drug candidate. The project will take advantage of unique technologies developed at York by Drs. Wilson and Krylov, Millisecond Hydrogen Deuterium eXchange (msHDX) mass spectrometry and Kinetic Capillary Electrophoresis (KCE), to provide a high-detail picture of Jazz Pharmaceutical’s candidate, including […]

Development of a High-Fidelity Motion Cueing Algorithm for TMotion

High-level control strategies, commonly referred to as Motion Cueing Algorithms (MCA), are used to create realistic perception of unrestricted 6 degrees-of-freedom (DoF) motion with a motion platform that has fewer DoF and a limited workspace. For instance, such an algorithm would tilt the platform towards back to emulate forward acceleration on a platform that does […]

Experimental investigation of patterning ananostructured bioadsorbable stent byfemtosecond laser ablation

The proposed project complements the current work of the partner organization with polymeric materials. The evaluation of ultrashort laser interaction with solid matter of surface textured metal-like materials would help the partner organization obtain detailed process knowledge; a distinct advantage for broadening its service offering to address a different market segment.

Certified Defense Framework against Patch Attacks on Images

Adversarial perturbation of all the image pixels is computationally intensive and may not be realized in practice. In contrast, an adversarial patch attack where an adversary can choose to perturb a specific subset of pixels in an image, is more practical in fooling a trained image classifier or hiding a person from an object-detection model. […]

Temporary Migrant Farmworkers in Essex County: Building Community Inclusion in a Post-COVID-19 Context

Temporary migrant farm workers make essential contributions to our national food supplies as evidenced during COVID-19. Their exclusion from rights to labour mobility, family unity and the absence of systemic supports, however, undermines workers’ wellbeing and belonging, and the inclusions to which migrant workers are entitled. There is less attention to how communities support their […]

Using AI to Increase Diversity in the Talent Pool

Canada is having a youth unemployment crisis that has only worsened post-COVID. At the same time, an untapped pool of young, diverse talent exists to fill entry-level positions. However, difficulties arise when trying to match youth with employers. In particular, youth have indicated that job postings can be unfamiliar or intimidating and ask for unrealistic […]
