Hypatia-Learn: State of the Art Mathematics Learning and Tutoring System

The project revolves around reading and understanding students solution to various mathematical problems. We wish to analyse the work done by students and the solution to these problems and provide math checking capabilities to various types of problems. Furthermore, this project looks to construct a virtual tutor that can analyse students work and provide feedback […]

Multi-Object Tracking in Production Environments

Multi-object tracking has many uses cases in autonomous driving, robotics and security. Tracking is important as it allows us reason about the dynamic world and make actionable decisions based-off predicted object trajectories. As an example, in autonomous driving, not only the location of objects is important but also their predicted future trajectories are needed in […]

Predicting population level effects of microplastics ingestion on the behaviour of fishes

High numbers of microplastics are currently present in freshwater lakes, rivers and ponds. Fish are known to mistake microplastic particles for food, then behave differently after eating them. As changes in behaviour are often the first line of defense against human-induced rapid environmental changes, monitoring these behavioural changes can tell us how pollutants, like microplastics, […]

An end-to-end IoT framework for reliable remote and contactless measurement of biometric data

Veyetals online smartphone-based application that can be downloaded through the Apple Store or the Google Play Store. It uses Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technique to extract Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) signal from a face video captured using smart phone camera, and then applies multiple computational algorithms to measure heart rate, heart rate variability, oxygen saturation, and […]

Automation of the TRCA’s Flood Risk Analysis Network (FRANk)

The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) use FRANk (Flood Risk Analysis Network), as a post storm decision making tool. This tool uses stream and rain gauge data to aid in managing and maintaining erosion control structures that are impacted by flooding events. However, FRANk has limitations, including a time-consuming rain gauge data collection process, […]

Consistent and Grounded Dialogue Response Generation. Generating responses to dialogues such that the responses are logically and factually consistent with the previous history of the dialogue and supplied external context

Conversational experiences are becoming more prevalent in software applications – from Alexa and Google assistant to Siri and Cortana – though the quality degrades when the automated dialogue agent must refer to or recall specific information. These systems are often forgetful, nonsensical, contradictory, repetitive, or hallucinatory, which impacts the user experience. This project aims to […]

Convolutional Neural Network for Demand Forecasting

Many retailers are interested in forecasting demand for the products they sell. Deloitte has used machine learning methods to tackle this problem in the past. However, this requires the creation of hand-crafted features based on product sales data, which is a costly and time-intensive process. Using alternative models to perform this task would remove the […]
