The proposed research project aims to address a limitation in serverless computing, which is a popular technology for building scalable applications in the cloud. Currently, serverless functions are restricted to run within a specific region, which can lead to performance and cost implications when dealing with external requests from different geographical locations. The project proposes […]

Studies carried out in SW Chubut have demonstrated the archaeological potential of this area of central Patagonia. This is not only due to its early dates (9,000 years BP for Casa de Piedra de Roselló, and 10,000 years BP for Alero Dasovich), but also to the value of sites and materials recovered. Particularly, pigments stand […]

The primary objective of the second article of my thesis is to evaluate if a racial cleavage is perceptible in public opinion in Canada and the United Kingdom. It will assess if this political cleavage is as salient as in the United States in both of these countries with the case of black voters. Also, […]

Cancel culture has rapidly developed into a social phenomenon sweeping through the internet as a new-age moral enforcement mechanism. When individuals call out others for their actions (past or present), they are attempting to bring attention to said others in order to bring about a form of justice. As social media has provided a medium […]

Currently, aluminum is produced with the Hall-Héroult process. Usually, consumable carbon anodes are used, thus leading to high rate of emissions of greenhouse gases in the environment. Anodes based on a new carbon-free material are being developed in Québec by Elysis, which originated from a partnership between Alcoa and Rio Tinto. This would be very […]

Le présent stage de recherche a pour objectif d’explorer la conception et l’étude d’un capteur microfluidique à résonateur micro-ondes dans le but de caractériser et de détecter des liquides. Ce stage s’inscrit dans le cadre d’un projet de recherche doctoral mené par le stagiaire à l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (UQTR), en collaboration avec une […]

This research project aims to explore and outline the implications of supervised and reinforcement learning dynamics in Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) with regard to Visual Perceptual Learning (VPL). DNNs, which are hierarchical computational models inspired by the biological brain, will be used to simulate various VPL tasks. The focus is on assessing how these distinct […]

The research project aims to study how the current dynamics of spatial production determine the pattern of global inequality, how the urban “way of life” is shaping the appropriation of natural spaces and what elements can configure a theory of justice that contributes to a positive redefinition of territorial policies. Faced with a context and, […]

Looking back at the history of Buddhism in medieval China, more and more scholars believe that the Tang Dynasty was a significant turning point in the development of Buddhist schools. Before the mid-Tang Dynasty, various Buddhist sects developed well.However, the southern Chan and the Pure Land were the dominant sects after the mid-Tang Dynasty. Furthermore, […]

Environ deux tiers des blessures à la moelle épinière touchent la région cervicale, causant une tétraplégie. Au Canada, 40 000 personnes ont une fonction de bras et de main réduite à cause de ces blessures. Même si certains conservent un mouvement volontaire partiel, la récupération est souvent limitée. Les nouvelles technologies neuroprothétiques cherchent à améliorer […]

There has been an increasing conversation worldwide about the inclusion of “computational thinking” as an essential competency of the 21st century. This has led to the recent integration of programming in school education in many countries and jurisdictions, for example, in the school math curricula in Norway and Ontario. This study addresses a pressing need […]

My project’s goal is to improve the model, which predicts in real-time zones, where it is safe to dissect during laparoscopic surgery. I am going to work on the ways to mitigate tool bias of the current model, as it presence could result into misleading of the surgeon, who performs an operation and, as a […]
