Modern Plug-and-Play Image Priors for RAW Image Enhancement

Modern mobile phones have become the dominant photography device in recent years. However, due to form factor constraints both the camera sensor and lens have to remain compact, which in turn has a negative effect on the resulting image quality such as decreased resolution and noise. Image restoration attempts to recover a clean latent image […]

Durham Community Energy Plan – Evaluation Framework

In 2018 the Region of Durham created the Durham Community Energy Plan (DCEP), Durham Region’s strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to a green economy. Achieving the goals of the DCEP will provide multiple economic, environmental and social benefits to Durham Region. Successful implementation of the DCEP however will require collecting and reporting […]

3D printing of chiral gold nanoparticles

This project involves the 3D printing of amino-acid and peptide-directed synthesis of chiral plasmonic gold nanoparticles. The chirality of these nanoparticles is important due to their exceptional light polarization control, negative refractive index and chiral sensing. Previous research on this topic look at the synthesis of these nanoparticles using amino acids and peptides which can […]
