Paired-image enhancement for smartphone cameras

This project aims to develop enhancement techniques for high-resolution imaging on smartphone devices. The project will focus on a specific imaging modality where a pair of images are captured in succession: a high-resolution image (108 mega-pixel) and a corresponding low-resolution image (12 mega-pixel). Due to the small pixel size in the sensor used to capture […]

Climate-smart circularity: Guiding decision-making through data-informed standard protocols

Organizations are trying to manage their waste streams using circular economy principles to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Without proper assessment, organizations that follow a standard waste hierarchy often lack proper awareness and understanding about the amount of GHG emissions individual options actually reduce. They can use sophisticated (and systems thinking) approaches such as life […]

Effect of exercise training on the human skeletal muscle proteome, phosphoproteome, and proteodynamics

Generally, resistance exercise increases muscle mass and strength, whereas endurance exercise increases the capacity to use fuels and fatigue resistance. In both cases, skeletal muscle translates the physical and biochemical stresses of exercise into morphological and metabolic adaptations, with the adaptations improving one’s ability to perform the corresponding type of exercise. This concept is known […]

Splittings of Binomial Edge Ideals

A graph is a collection of nodes or points, called vertices, along with a collection of objects called edges, which connect some of the vertices. Graphs can be used to model a number of real world applications. For example, the world wide web can be represented by a node for each website, and an edge […]
