Online multiplayer videogames are popular because most of their content is generated by interactions among players and thus extremely dynamic. Predicting players’ behaviour in these games is necessary to better design and maintain the game environment and to keep the players engaged in the game. These predictions are difficult because a player’s behaviour varies as […]

Study of language disorders, theoretical linguistics, and neuroscience suggests language competence involves two interacting systems, typically dubbed syntax and semantics. However few state-of-the-art deep-learning approaches for natural language processing explicitly model two different systems of representation. While achieving impressive performance on linguistic tasks, they commonly fail to generalize systematically. For example, unlike humans, learning a […]

Office 365 est une plateforme infonuagique de Microsoft qui regroupe plusieurs services très populaires tels que Word, Excel, Outlook, OneDrive, Teams. Sherweb, une entreprise de Sherbrooke, offre un produit appelé Office Protect qui permet détecter des activités anormales dans Office365. Office Protect est complémentaire aux services de surveillance offerts par Microsoft et il est mieux […]

“Melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) is a is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and key regulator of energy homeostasis. MC4R mutations represent the largest monogenic cause of obesity, resulting mainly from receptor misfolding and intracellular retention by the cellular quality control system. The efficacy of several lead compounds on restoring the cell surface expression and function […]

Ground water is the principal drinking water source in North America and approximately 150 million people relies on ground water for their domestic supply. Groundwater contamination occurs as a direct or indirect result of human or animal waste ingress to groundwater resources. The anthropogenic activity resulted in the contamination of surface and ground water with […]

Age-based diseases of cognitive dysfunction such as dementia and Alzheimer’s are a growing problem in Canada that already cost the healthcare system over $10 billion annually. The ability to provide the general public with ubiquitous access to iterative cognitive function testing would be extremely valuable to the individual, society, and science. LRDG has commenced development […]

Canada ambitions to achieve a deep decarbonization of its economy by 2050, with a reduction of its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions up to 90% relative to their 2005 levels. Such a transition from the current situation will have important impacts in particular on its energy sector. In this context, SIEMENS Canada, a manufacturer of energy […]

The use of oocytes from peri-pubertal heifers represents an important reproductive management asset, assisting with the rapid multiplication of high merit genetic material and the reduction of generation interval. However, oocytes from peri-pubertal heifers have reduced developmental capability leading to embryos of lower quality. Furthermore, the in vitro culture conditions for the embryo production were […]

There is no direct way to measure spinal loads, and existing methods are indirect and invasive; alternatively, musculoskeletal models can predict spinal loads accurately and economically. Existing musculoskeletal models of spine substantially simplify the spine and/or use optimization algorithms to estimate muscle forces. Thus, we aim to develop a subject-specific musculoskeletal model of the spine […]
