Terahertz (THz) waves are a type of radiation located between micro-waves and infrared light. This radiation possess both the qualities of micro-waves passing through walls and infrared which can be used to image an object. In the current project of the student, electro-optic sampling (EOs) method is used to detect THz pulse’s phase in reflexion […]

Urban sprawl has become a major concern in scientific and political discussions because of its many detrimental environmental, economic, and social effects. The current trends in urban sprawl in many countries are in conflict with the spirit and the principles of sustainable development. How can this growing challenge be addressed by future urban growth management […]

The research project will develop a pipe replacement and rehabilitation optimization method. The research group is currently developing machine learning models to predict future water main failure. Data has been collected from 13 cities across Canada and represent different conditions and settings. This data is already being cleaned and analysed by a team of graduate […]

Medzy est une plateforme de pharmacie virtuelle qui assure un suivi thérapeutique assidu, fondé sur un système de rappels et d’alertes, un dosage de médicaments clair et personnalisé, ainsi qu’une interaction continue et entièrement confidentielle entre le patient et son pharmacien. Ce dernier devient donc un acteur proactif du cheminement thérapeutique. Le patient, lui, voit […]

Les entrepreneurs et entrepreneuses ont souvent des parcours hétérogènes, peu conventionnels et pavés de détours. Or pour trouver un accompagnement adapté aux étapes de la mise en place de leur entreprise, plusieurs se tournent vers l’accompagnement entrepreneurial. Celui-ci peut être à la fois du mentorat, de l’apprentissage par les pairs, mais également à travers des […]

In this project, we bring together a team of four proposed MITACs globalink student scholars working in Brazil and Canada with supervisors directly involved with the research project. We will begin to fill the gaps in knowledge about successful reintroduction of capuchin monkeys by 1) conducting behavioural research on bearded brown capuchin (*Sapajus libidinosus*) personality […]

Le projet Mitacs Globalink que nous proposons est la première étape d’une collaboration entre le laboratoire DOMUS de l’Université de Sherbrooke et le laboratoire LISTIC de l’Université Savoie Mont Blanc. Dans sa thèse, M. Hubert Kenfack NGANKAM a créé un système de création de scénarios pour aider les personnes atteintes de la maladie d’Alzheimer lors […]

In this internship, we will leverage the power of AI multi-modal algorithms to build a system for predicting the risk of cardiovascular (heart) diseases by extracting features from tabular data (clinical data and demographics) and the medical images in order to predict the risk of cardiovascular diseases at 5 years and 10 eyars. We have […]

Dans un contexte de perte de biodiversité et de changements climatiques, le projet propose de documenter et caractériser la communauté de papillons des sommets alpins du parc de la Gaspésie. Les milieux alpins subissent l’effet des changements climatiques à un rythme 2 à 3 fois plus rapides qu’ailleurs. L’étude établira un portrait initial précis de […]

In this project, by considering a team of heterogeneous robots available at the host institution, the intern will develop a trajectory planning method that ensures target enclosure in the presence of noisy measurements. Such a planner will leverage a positioning algorithm developed to take advantage of all the robots’ onboard sensors. Specifically, the objective of […]

This project deals with the continuation of a project at Concordia University in 2020 via Mitacs Globalink research award. The project investigated different manufacturing scenarios of a thermoplastic skin/grind structure using automated fiber placement (AFP) in the Concordia Center for Composites labs. The thermoplastic skin/grin structure was successfully fabricated via AFP in-situ consolidation. Now, this […]

This research project consists in obtaining detailed information about the structure of a particular class of crystalline materials named metal–organic frameworks, comprised of inorganic nodes interconnected by organic linkers. Their highly ordered structure allows the use of routine characterization techniques to earn insights about the organization of atoms and molecules within their framework. However, due […]
