Le confort acoustique est un aspect primordial pour la société et les industries, notamment celles du transport. Pour concevoir moins bruyant et réduire les coûts de prototypage, les outils de simulation sont de plus en plus utilisés. Afin d’alimenter ces outils, il est primordial de caractériser les propriétés de matériaux acoustiques nécessaires aux modèles de […]

We propose to develop smart algorithms for document generation, by innovating in the field of natural language processing and document intelligence. We envision the next generation of business applications able to parse and understand documents, to compose documents automatically, and to respond intelligently to voice commands. Our industrial partner, Koneka Inc. has a document automation […]

Ce projet vise à élucider davantage le mode d’action de certains produits élaborés par ProMetic BioSciences inc. sur certaines cellules myéloïdes humaines en relation avec une réponse cellulaire impliquée dans un nombre grandissant de maladies humaines. Il s’agit d’un stress du réticulum endoplasmique (RE), un organite cellulaire impliqué dans la synthèse des protéines. Cette dernière […]

FPInnovations has developed FPInterface, a software platform in which forest operations are simulated in order to estimate fibre supply costs, including harvesting and transportation. It currently has 7 sub-modules including MaxTour and FPAlloc. The goal of this project is to develop and validate optimization techniques in order to implement new sub-modules to FPInterface that will […]

The goal of this project is to develop the first ever high definition integrated water circulation and water quality model for the Toronto Waterfront. As one of the most urbanized freshwater ecosystems with complex geometries and physical processes, Toronto Waterfront is in an urgent need for modern scientific tools that can support effective environmental management […]

Currently, all types of vehicles utilize a 12 volt lead-acid battery for start-stop, controls, comfort features, redundancy, and safety features. We aim to replace it by introducing a new rechargeable hybrid aqueous battery, which is lead-free and possesses more than twofold higher energy storage capacity. There are requirements to further improve the rate capability and […]

We aim to develop novel technologies for point of care DNA testing assisted by optical fiber devices. Specifically, the two main objectives are to achieve increased rapidity and improved multiplexing capabilities with respect to Spartan Bioscience’s current generation of products. This interdisciplinary project involves efforts in chemistry, biology, and photonics. On the photonics side, we […]

Traditional insurance models build on the assumption of independence of risks. One of the main causes of the recent financial crisis, this assumption has facilitated the quantification of risks for decades, but it has often lead to risks’ under-estimation and as a result under-pricing. Importantly, one of the prime pillars of the novel concept of […]
