Object occlusion detection

Sometimes an object is partially hidden by a physical object like fingers, book etc. or by digitally pasted artifacts like blurringof an area. The intern will be working on detecting these types of digital and physical occlusions on an object. At Jumio we encounter documents that are hidden or occluded by such masks. These documents […]

2021 Massawippi Watershed Hydrologic Flux Report of Water and Soil Quality Components

This project aims to study and assess nutrient conditions in Lake Massawippi and its surroundings. Previous studies suggest that fertilizer contaminants from various agricultural plots flow to nearby waters, especially the adjacent Tomifobia river. Our team will assess soil, and water components for net transfer of nutrient and other particle contamination. These measurements will be […]

Multi-Domain Recommendation for Restaurants Using GNN Models

The student will develop a recommendation system for restaurants, proposing food selections to customers. This system will be based on GNN models to predict a customer’s need based on both user and order data. The data include previous purchases, data of dishes and similarity of users collected from online food orders. In the first phase […]

Development of an online tool for crowd movement simulation research

Crowds are everywhere and studying them is important for urban planning, transportation, evacuation, and safety at large public events. Simulation modelling lets us study crowd behaviour by simulating large numbers of individual pedestrians and seeing how they behave as a crowd in different, sometimes dangerous scenarios. Simulation allows us to study situations that would be […]

Development of a thermal spray wear-resistant coating for abrasive concrete applications

Mechanical wear and chemical corrosion are the two main dominant factors that limit the service life of industrial machinery. Wear and tear of tools and equipment are significantly intensifying due to the increasing demand for superior efficiency, productivity, and throughput of industrial apparatuses. Since the surface of the materials is more exposed to abrasive wear […]
