Analyzing needs is essential in any innovation project. A product/service should be designed and developed according to users’ needs so that it could be successful in the market and satisfy its users. However, it is not just the users who are interacting with a product. Designers, developers, project managers, business analysts and other stakeholders might […]

Road safety affects everyone, and companies are looking for ways to identify the risk factors for their fleet drivers, and to reduce the chance of accidents. This project will build on Geotab’s existing methods for assessing driving risks, and develop new techniques to better identify risky drivers and risky behaviours. The project will focus on […]

Companies spend a large amount of money and time on mobile application development which requires knowledge of various native platform programming languages and the different characteristics of these platforms. However, demands for mobile applications are increasing and are becoming difficult to follow for the IT department. One solution seems to be no-code development platforms that […]

Big data is a collection of data sets so large and complex that it becomes difficult to process using on-hand database management tools or traditional data processing applications. The challenges include capture, curation, storage, search, sharing, transfer, analysis, and visualization. In this internship, we analyze a real-world big data set(s) to make sensible inferences by […]

Road safety affects everyone, not just Geotab customers. With several years of driving and environmental data collected from over 2 million connected vehicles, there is a great opportunity to leverage big data and machine learning to establish a minor collision detection system. On top of driving data and environmental data, it also contains machine diagnostic […]

One of ten Canadians will experience trauma at least once in their lives and will develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Many people cannot access PTSD care because of the high cost, long-waiting time, stigma and other barriers etc. Amygdala (deep brain) is important to traumatic emotions and memories. One way to access these memories is […]

Over the past few years, the abilities and performances of deep-learning natural language processing (NLP) have evolved dramatically. A main reason for those improvements is the scaling of the number of parameters in models to tens or hundreds of billions. However, it also becomes impractical to deploy those models in production as the computation cost […]

As lunar exploration is ramping up, resources present on the Moon are valuable and the distribution of these resources will directly affect future human surface operations. Water ice and other volatiles will be a key factor in surface operations so small rover prospecting missions to identify these resources are essential. In order for such focused […]

Machine learning has great potential in detecting cognitive, mental and functional health disorders from speech, as acoustic properties of speech and corresponding patterns in language are modified by a variety of health-related effects. Specifically, neural language models, have recently demonstrated impressive abilities in tasks involving linguistic knowledge. Their success in language understanding and classification tasks […]

Working in partnership, interdisciplinary professionals and the Registered Practical Nurses (RPNs) Association of Ontario (WeRPN) aim to understand what contributes to and detracts from personal, professional and institutional resiliency for RPNs during COVID-19. This is a rare opportunity to learn from front-line workers directly during historical social periods, such as COVID-19, and even less often […]

Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are receiving significant attention in many communities, including academia, industry, and consumer electronics. SOTI is the world’s most trusted provider of mobile and IoT management solutions and its new aerospace division, SOTI Aerospace is focusing on hardware and software systems to support self-navigating situationally aware aerial drones. This project belongs […]

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) are computer programs powered by artificial intelligence that can automate the tutoring process. They have the potential to provide low cost and highly scalable one-on-one tutoring to students around the globe in real-time. Their continued improvement is exciting for the future of education, and should be encouraged. Recent years have seen […]
