ICICI Bank has developed various ‘Zero credit touch’ (ZCT) strategies where without any credit intervention and additional information taken from customers, credit facilities can be provided. But there are several challenges in the expansion of ZCT strategies, namely, (i) current credit models which are a combination of business rules, scorecards and machine learning models, do […]

This project is focusing on creating an integration of a database and mathematical calculation, with the use of Alexa, Google home, Cortana, so that users can use Natural Language to aggregate meaningful data and answer questions from a given database. For example, suppose there is a database about car sales. If I asked Siri, “who […]

At Tealbook, we search the web to make the world’s business-to-business supplier websites readily accessible. We extract important sentences and keywords to create a searchable database that buyers can then use to find the right supplier for their needs. But right now, we are limited to servicing English-language organizations. Can we expand our services to […]

Strategies to promote immune defences against COVID-19 infection are urgently needed. The gastrointestinal tract is a potentially important route for COVID-19 infection and for generating protective anti-viral immunity against this pathogen. Certain features of COVID-19 contribute to its ability to evade and subvert our immune defences. Type I interferon is a key immune protein that […]

iStandardize is an AI-powered machine learning solution that is designed to streamline the standardization of clinical order sets (i.e., forms) by using machine learning and natural language processing techniques. Currently, hospital networks use multiple versions of forms and order sets, many of them are similar in nature. The lack of standardization poses a challenge in […]

This project aims at developing information and knowledge that will promote public and policy support for the long-term sustainability of the agricultural system surrounding the greenbelt. Based on a preliminary research led by the Friends of Greenbelt Foundation, this research will develop a monitoring framework for the viability and protection of the agricultural system in […]

A sustainable pavement is one that is safe, smooth, efficient, economic, and environment friendly, meeting the needs of present-day users without comprising those of future generations. Sustainable flexible (asphalt) pavements, in particular, are those that minimize environmental impacts through the reduction of fuel and energy-based materials (asphalt cement, for example) consumption, more effective use of […]

Bell Media receives content from different providers, including content it produces in-house. There are standards for tagging audio tracks with metadata however many facilities (including Bell) do not adhere to these standards. Currently Bell uses a manual approach to classify unlabeled audio tracks, which is inefficient, and time consuming for massive digital media that Bell […]

In recent years, many machine learning methods have been developed for predictive analytics and automated decision making. However, the lack of explanation resulted in both practical and ethical issues. In this project, we will employ and advance interpretable machine learning methods for various predictive analytics tasks in employee benefit insurance. The proposed methods can be […]

Road safety affects everyone, not just Geotab customers. With several years of driving and environmental data collected from over 2 million connected vehicles, there is a great opportunity to leverage big data and machine learning to establish an accident detection system. On top of driving data and environmental data, it also contains machine diagnostic data […]

Machine learning has been applied in various fields and shown promising results in recent years. Researchers have found that tuning machine learning models in a proper way can vastly boost the model performance with respect to the specific AI task. However, tuning machine learning models at scale, especially finding the right hyperparameter values, can be […]

Global service providers in highly regulated financial sectors must accommodate an ever-changing, sometimes competing, landscape of regulatory concerns. This project seeks to determine a reasonable path forward in technology design and adoption to accommodate current and anticipated infrastructure changes. Moreover, bridging the service layer across multiple, distinct distributed systems of varying complexity will pose new […]
