This project will investigate machine learning methods to organize and discover the vast literature on biomedical science. First, it will focus on named entity recognition–the task of finding and classifying entities in text documents–on large collections of abstracts and full-text of research papers and investigate semi-supervised learning methods to leverage large collections of unlabeled research […]

There has been an increasing conversation worldwide about the inclusion of “computational thinking” as an essential competency of the 21st century. This has led to the recent integration of programming in school education in many countries and jurisdictions, for example, in the school math curricula in Norway and Ontario. This study addresses a pressing need […]

My project’s goal is to improve the model, which predicts in real-time zones, where it is safe to dissect during laparoscopic surgery. I am going to work on the ways to mitigate tool bias of the current model, as it presence could result into misleading of the surgeon, who performs an operation and, as a […]

pointA is seeking an intern to provide a marketing and sales support to develop a strategy to expand its Best Workplaces for Commuters designation, which was developed by the US Department of Transportation and Environmental Protection Agency in 1999. pointA is the first Canadian partner to bring this designation to Canada to provide employers of […]

The way humans perceive their surroundings relies heavily on some sort of decomposition of those into smaller atomized entities (objects, or parts of objects). This allows for complex reasoning and prediction capabilities which are mostly seen as mundane in humans but are still a challenge to propagate to artificial systems. My project wants to explore […]

The project objective is to design and manufacture ultrasonic sensors capable of operating at temperatures up to 800 oC. Such transducers can be affixed to hot piping systems and pressure vessels in petrochemical plants, electrical power generating stations, and manufacturing plants. These sensors can then provide continuous information to the plant operator regarding the onset […]

Salmon aquaculture loses money when the salmon being farmed are infested by small parasites called “sea lice”. In Newfoundland Atlantic salmon aquaculture farms, the most common type of sea lice is the salmon louse. They can greatly reduce the number of salmon produced and cause health issues for the salmon. To manage the sea lice […]
