Early Learning is an impotant undertaking in Canadian society and supporting young children as they move from home to early learning centres onto kindergarten classes is of particular interest and value to educators, helping us to ensure we provide the right environments and supports for all young children. This research will help us to provide […]

Two Hat Security is a company that develops next generation moderation tools for social networking apps. Since visual content (e.g. images, videos) is one of the most important types of data shared by social networking apps, an important problem for the company is to identify images/videos that are offensive or inappropriate. For example, certain images/videos […]

The purpose of this research will be to analyze microbial volatile organic compounds for the purpose of the development of an analytical method for the detection and speciation of moulds in an indoor environment.

The objective of this project is, firstly, to evaluate the performance of various adsorbents using various techniques for gas separation and purification applications of commercial interest; and secondly, to optimize and modify the current PSA setup at Xebec Ads. Company. The proposed project will examine various adsorbents provided by Xebec Adsorption Inc. to determine their […]

Accurate measurements of mass flow rate in a pipe is crucial to virtually every industrial process where a fluid is moved from place to place. The velocity measured in a pipe is often determined by measuring the pressure drop over an orifice plate. Once this orifice plate is properly calibrated, the velocity and in turn, […]

Intrusion detection has attracted the attention of many researchers in identifying the ever-increasing issue of intrusive activities. In particular, anomaly detection has been the main focus of many researchers due to its potential in detecting novel attacks. However, its adoption to real-world applications has been hampered due to system complexity as these systems require a […]

This project is part of a research program that will develop a bay-scale cumulative effects monitoring program for eelgrass in Atlantic Canada, adding to work previously completed by the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) and the Northumberland Strait Environmental Monitoring Partnership (NorSt-EMP) in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence. The proposed research aims […]

Salt marshes are important coastal ecosystems because they provide many services to surrounding areas. However, due to their highly productive nature, they have a long history of being converted into farmland in Maritime Canada. In recent years, there has been strong interest in restoring salt marshes to protect against coastal erosion, mitigate sea level rise, […]

As the multi-processing power of computers continues to grow, traditional methods of memory management become more and more problematic. The purpose of this project is to quantitatively analyze existing memory management tactics to determine whether they can be improved using techniques that take advantage of modern hardware, or instead, whether brand new methods for managing […]
