In this project, we investigate deep-learning-based artificial intelligence technologies for automated in-process part inspection for advanced manufacturing. We will experiment with state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning technologies, applied to a camera capture of a manufactured product part while the part is being made. In this way, product defects can be detected early, saving time […]

Video surveillance on mobile platforms such as school buses and public transit systems is increasingly important to ensure the safety of the public and the drivers. These systems are typically equipped with various sensors, e.g., GPS and accelerometer. In this project, the intern will develop a pattern recognition algorithm for our partner organization to fuse […]

Investigation of exotic electronic phenomena is at the forefront of scientific research in quantum materials, one of the key building blocks for the development of quantum technologies and industry. Here, we propose a project that is aimed at discovering and studying new electronic phases brought about from the interplay of various energy scales, coming from […]

Changes in sea-level are attributable mainly to crustal deformation, changes in global ocean volumes (eustasy) and the response of the Earth’s crust to glaciation (isostasy). On the British Columbia coast, sea-level history is complex owing to regional differences in these factors. A geographic data gap exists in our understanding of Holocene (past 10,000 years) sea-level […]

First Course Foods provides a healthy solution to parents who want to offer solid food items to their babies. We produce nutritious meals, low in salt and high in iron and protein, and make them available to those who have no time or energy to prepare a meal for their babies in advance. We are […]

Westland Insurance Group Ltd. (‘Westland’) was established in 1980 by founder Jeff Wubs as a single-office brokerage in Ladner, British Columbia to meet the insurance needs of local individuals and businesses. Since then, Westland has grown into one of Canada’s largest independently owned insurance distribution businesses. Our head office is located in Surrey, BC and […]

The path to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 in Atlantic Canada is both time- and resource-constrained. Energy system models can be used in this context to compare climate change mitigation options and to strategically plan for meeting climate change goals through cost-effective and timely means. Motivated by these circumstances, Net Zero Atlantic is building an […]

Tidal marshes are productive and economically important, providing valuable ecosystem services including disturbance regulation, waste treatment, and the ability to sequester carbon. Sturgeon Bank is a large tidal ecosystem that had a total tidal marsh area of 543 ha at its greatest extent this century. At least 160 ha of tidal marsh at Sturgeon Bank […]

Restoring degraded land for food production is a major global challenge. The turbulent waves of extreme weather experienced across western North America over the past year continue to shake agricultural producers – farmers must contend with both extreme rainfall and drought while still maintaining financially and ecologically viable systems. This research project will determine the […]

This research will explore the connections between nature and people in Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs). These values will be articulated by identifying the ecosystem services (i.e. the goods and services provided to people by nature) and determining which of these hold significant cultural values. These values will be compared using a variety of […]
