Human Resource Expert System: a Help Centre/Inquiry Expert System for Hospitals

Seneca and Trinetra are collaborating to develop a Human Resources (HR) Expert System—a self-service, Artificial Intelligence (AI)–powered application capable of responding to queries or questions from hospital staff by extracting the right answer from relevant sources: collective bargaining agreement, policies, etc., which will be piloted at Markham Stouffville Hospital (MSH). This System will provide an […]

Reformulation of Electrochemical Sensors for Trace Dissolved Oxygen Monitoring

Electrochemical sensors for monitoring dissolved oxygen levels are commonplace in industrial, research and regulatory labs. The industrial partner?s commercialized device is capable of real-time monitoring of O2 at parts-per-billion levels but is interested in reformulating the electrode materials to remove heavy metals, thereby minimizing negative environmental impact and ensuring sustainability of the technology. This project […]

Multimodal-based inferencing of behavioral constructs in asynchronous video-based interviews: portability, efficacy, and interpretability

The intern is expected to work on devising novel, research-based solutions to model traits (e.g., naturalness, confidence, engagement, humor, etc.) from video recordings of non-cognitive, performance-based tasks. Specifically, we are working toward an intelligent combination of multimodal (video, speech, text) data to create an enriched model for predicting human traits in human-computer interactions. The intern […]

NFFTT: Cross-Cultural Urban Fruit Tree Management

This research project will examine fruit tree health in the City of Toronto. This will be done by conducting a health assessment of Not Far From The Tree’s fruit trees and will examine if there is any variance between species or neighbourhoods. Additionally, since NFFTT’s trees are located on privately-owned land, this project will examine […]

Non-destructive applications of gene transcriptional profiling to fish health and stress quantification

Freshwater fish contribute to the economic and ecological wellbeing of Canada; however, they are in decline globally. To mitigate those threats, accurate health status data for individual fish is critical. Since fish respond to changes in their habitat through gene expression, unexpected changes in gene expression patterns are powerful indicators of fish stress and declining […]

Novel methodologies to facilitate testing processes for VR development

Testing is a core process for the development of Virtual Reality (VR) software. VR development without appropriate and efficient testing will cause defective user experience and slow down the development process. However, state-of-art VR testing highly relied on VR equipment such as VR headset. To address this problem, our project will investigate and assess novel […]
