Big Data Analytics for GPS Fleet Management

The project will develop a data mining strategy on how to efficiently use Geotab’s data from multiple sources to isolate network connectivity logs in Geotab’s data, interpolate the GPS coordinates associated with network logs, acquire fuel consumption rates and related opportunities. It will involve a literature survey of the existing algorithms to gain valuable insights. […]

Drug Delivery Vehicle for Gene Silencing in the Posterior Segment of the Eye

Retinal diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cause vision blur and distortion, eventually leading to vision loss. AMD is the leading cause of blindness in patients over 60, affecting an estimated 200 million people worldwide. Current treatments require patients to receive monthly injections into the back of the eye, risking adverse effects and placing […]

Advanced Control and Data Analysis in Support of Unmanned Vehicle Operators

Mobile robots equipped with chemical, radiological and explosive detectors are deployed during events where CBRNE materials have been dispersed; sending robots provides key reconnaissance data while reducing personnel exposure. Operators rely on camera views and on-board detectors to drive the robots using joysticks, and they have to control every aspect of the robot operation. Live […]

Reprogrammable photonic platform for quantum simulations

Photonic technologies offer promising prospects for quantum information processing and simulations. Quantum states are usually encoded in photonic degrees of freedom like polarization and spatial modes, enabling the mimicking of target evolutions via a number of devices linearly growing with their temporal extension. This constraint intrinsically makes them lossy and inadequate for extreme quantum dynamics, […]
