MRI is one of the most widely used medical imaging techniques. The main challenge with MRI is its low resolution. This is why patients need to stay in the MRI machine for long scan times, sometimes for about an hour. We are developing a software solution that uses our proprietary quantum technology and AI to […]

From the survey of literature (Eames et al. (1995), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004b), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004a) and others), the performance of a jet refrigeration system depends greatly on the ejector configuration (characteristics). Many researchers have shown the need to improve performance in order to make ejector-based cooling economically more attractive. It is known that […]

Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are promising candidates for storing significant amounts of electricity, since zinc (Zn) is widely available and inexpensive. ZIBs typically use a high-capacity Zn metal anode, metal oxide positive electrode, and aqueous electrolyte, with energy/power densities similar to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). ZIBs offer advantages over LIBs, including improved safety, eco-friendliness and simpler manufacturing […]

Among many software development and data engineering services, Creative Emporium provides digital Account Maintenance, minimizing human intervention. Using cutting edge technology, the proposed AI-driven Accountium platform will execute the interaction between The System and The Accountant to the next level. Accountium will use International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In addition to account ledger posting, the […]

In order to develop resilience-based earthquake civil infrastructures, a new seismic control system using shape memory alloy (SMA) elements is designed to implement into these structures. Such systems can improve the dynamic behavior of the civil infrastructures and provide their stability under seismic loads by dissipation of the energy, having the self-centering ability, high-deformability, and […]

The broad objectives of this project are: I. To reduce the risk of emerging infectious diseases related to poultry; and II. To improve Alberta poultry industry productivity and profitability. To reach these broad objectives we will address 3 specific objectives: 1) Determine what the knowledge needs of the poultry industry are and how knowledge is […]

In the global effort to combat climate change, the cement and concrete industry has been identified as a key decarbonization target owing to accounting for approximately 8% of CO2 emissions. Avenues for decarbonizing this sector include energy efficiency improvements, reuse/recycling, and carbon capture utilization and storage. This project consists of two sub-projects focused on different […]

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is related to the improper use of insulin in the body and cell resistance to the insulin receiving or loss of cell sensitivity to insulin. Early diagnosis is critical to prevent this disease and postpone or even prevent the serious complications. The blood glucose concentration and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) are the […]

Conventional organic waste disposal adapts a linear waste-to-discharge treatment strategy, wasting the vast amount of resources and energy embedded in organic waste. With our innovative reactor design and operation, we have demonstrated significantly increased energy and resources recovery efficiencies under loading rates higher (2 times) than reported. Our products feature high flexibility and easy operation/maintenance, […]

This project tackles the issue of knowledge incompleteness and lack of domain coverage in resume and job posting matching caused by the exploitation of domain-general resources. A variety of co-operative semantic/ontological resources will be used to filter out irrelevant resumes. A two-way (candidate to job and job to candidate) semantic-based automatic suitability ranking is proposed. […]

Wound dressings are indispensable in medical operation as they protect the wound from contamination by foreign matter, absorb wound exudate, and control the humidity of the wound to promote healing. To meet the requirements in wound closure and management, and convenience and comfort of users, the dressings is required to processes multiple functionalities. Optical transparency […]

Developing safer, more effective treatments for chronic pain has become a major area of research due to the negative side effects of opioids. This project aims to mediate the intelligent design and development of drugs, that will achieve pain relief without the detrimental side effects of addiction and respiratory depression. The proposed research will use […]
