This project is a collaboration between Korea’s Soongsil University NDT Lab and Canada’s Waterloo University Computer Vision for Smart Structure Lab (CViSS), aiming to promote new research at each institute and build smart construction and infrastructure monitoring. NDT Lab focuses on developing non-destructive engineering technologies for concrete internal crack width, reinforcing bar diameter and internal […]

Intelligent health-conscious battery management system (BMS) and advanced battery thermal management systems (BTMS) are essential to improve performance of energy utilization, safety, and cycle-life. Improvement in the energetic performance on all these levels encourages integration and development within the full thermal installation. This project will look at Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML)-based intelligent state estimators […]

In Canada, the transportation sector accounts for 25% of all emissions. Hydrogen fueled vehicles is one option that has a great potential to reduce Canadian and global CO2 fuel emissions. This research project investigates production parameters that influence hydrogen storage capacity in storage materials in order to optimize the production process and increase the hydrogen […]

This research project aims to create an Intelligent Query and Learning System (IQLS) that can integrate knowledge from multiple sources such as documents, web pages, voices, input texts, images, and videos. The IQLS will use learning and reasoning techniques to update the knowledge structures dynamically and allow multiple users to integrate their knowledge packages and […]

1000s of Ontarians engage with their local government every year through Advisory Committees of Council (ACOCs). The committees address a wide range of topics, including accessibility, transit, heritage, and the arts. Residents often serve on these committees for a more than a year. The goal of this research is to develop a framework to support […]

The intern will be participating in research to evaluate ways to apply emerging AI technology and AI products to the Canadian education sector. Education topics of focus include but are not limited to, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and computer science. The intern will evaluate the current AI landscape to discern the capabilities of the technology […]

Much of the world’s high-quality data remains under lock in relational databases. Access is gained through relational query languages. This can suffice for people who are well versed in both SQL and in the schemas of databases. However, anyone who does not know SQL or who is not well versed in the schema is effectively […]

In this project, we will be investigating a potential therapeutic target for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which is a type of blood cancer and the five year survival rate is less than 30%. We will be studying a receptor called OR2AT4, which has been found in the white blood cells of AML patients. This receptor […]

Native Child and Family Services of Toronto (NCFST) must reflect the holistic Indigenous worldview so that we better reflect what we are supposed to be: a thriving and growing Indigenous multi-service urban agency. We need to align the decision-making principles and processes with historical and traditional forms of governance from the region in which we […]

Adwow Marketing Inc. (a AI-powered marketing start-up) is seeking expertise of an intern who has background in Digital Marketing and Analytics. The collaboration with MITACS will provide Adwow with access to valuable resources and expertise that can help Adwow strengthen its unique selling proposition and develop an effective go-to-market strategy.

The electrochemical decarbonation (ED) of limestone is a novel disruptive technology with the potential to promote deep decarbonization of the cement industry, which emits about 8% of carbon dioxide global emissions. ED uses water electrolysis cells to precipitate Ca(OH)2, which has been used as an alternative raw material for Alite synthesis, the main clinker compound. […]
