In 2011, Statistics Canada reported that women comprised only 25% of total farmer numbers. At the same time, an aging male farmer population is causing concern that if the farming sector does not broaden its appeal among women, there will be significant economic implications for its future development. The Egg Farmers of Canada wants to […]

Noblegen Inc. is an advanced bioproducts manufacturer dedicated to developing cost-effective, naturally-derived biomaterials and biochemicals for a wide range of consumer and industry sectors. We employ a unique organism, algae, to continue to do what it does naturally – decontaminate wastewater sustainably and affordably while also generating valuable biomass for use in biomaterials and biochemicals […]

Denial of service attacks deny a service, such as visiting a website or access to a network, by deliberately congesting the server or the network resources. In addition to delivering digital contents to end-users, content delivery networks (CDNs) are supposed to protect the content origins, such as Netflix or Amazon Video, against denial of service […]

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are known to have the ability to acquire large amounts of data from on-board devices such as sensors and cameras during flight. Majority of the data is typically stored on-board during a flight mission while a small amount of important data is transmitted to the Ground Control Station (GCS) over available […]

Evaluation is a key element to assure the high quality of programs. The Pre-Residency program is meant to prepare the international medical graduates to be at the same level as any locally trained Medical graduate in Canada for their specialty training rotations. In this project we are using an innovative engineering approach to conduct an […]

West 5 community in London, Ontario, will pursue high penetration of electric vehicles, and is exploring an innovative marketing program of including them with the sale of each new condominium unit. The primary objective of this project is to determine an economical approach to create an acceptable infrastructure for these electric vehicles that will be […]

Sound barriers can be seen beside highways across Ontario and are designed to protect residents from the noise produced by traffic. However, these barriers do little in the way of protecting residents from the pollution produced by nearby vehicles. This project combines a novel sound barrier design with a new pollution control technology that will […]

Development of a field-ready and commercially useful fuselage and cargo bay for a long-range unmanned aerial vehicle, including analysis of use of composite materials and resulting performance implications.

Fear is considered a natural reaction when a child visits the hospital. Much research has been done to understand what causes it and how to treat it. Current methods to treat child hospital fear works on decreasing anxiety at specific points in the procedure. This project will investigate creating a series of tools and procedures […]

Deep learning is currently the dominant machine learning technique as a result of state of the art performance in vision (Russakovsky, et al., 2015), speech (Amodei, et al., 2015) and natural language processing (Vinyals et al., 2015). The improvement in performance of these models is attributed to the availability of large datasets for training the […]

The main purpose of the research project is to have the student investigate and develop a voice transformation system that modifies waveforms of recorded speech segments to produce multiple different sounding voices for characters within a video game.

A Way Home Ottawa (AWHO) is a community-based initiative to end and prevent youth homelessness in the Ottawa region. In 2016 Carleton researchers Justin Langille and Dr. Kennelly worked with AWHO to ask youth and adult service providers what improvements need to be made to the existing system to ensure youth always have access to […]
