L’objectif principal est de mettre à disposition de notre partenaire industriel Bodyform3D des outils informatisés innovants afin d’améliorer et d’enrichir leurs technologies (plateforme d’acquisition et de modélisation 3D) pour répondre à des besoins dans le domaine médical avec une application pour le traitement en urgence des grands brûlés ou pour la mensuration de sujets pour […]

Despite the advances of Machine Learning, the models are still being considered black-boxes that are difficult to diagnose and explain. The model performance diagnostic measures are critical to the assessment of the model’s relevance, accuracy and robustness. Good models’ performance is the primary enabler of their successful deployment in real-life applications. However, even if the […]

Realistic driving experience in motion simulators is a key element for the impressiveness of the VR based simulators. In the driving simulator the free motion of the vehicle is mapped to a motion platform with limited workspace by filtering out the motion and scaling it down with a motion cueing algorithm. These algorithms should be […]

Developing a drug for new diseases cannot only be challenging but also time consuming. From the identification of a druggable target to a compound which can improve a condition it usually takes more than 12 years. Since there is basically an infinite number of possible compounds which can be turned into a drug it is […]

Ce projet permettra à Pi-Sol Technologies, notre partenaire industriel, de développer des encres actives innovantes et performantes à faibles coûts pour des applications diverses incluant les énergies renouvelables. Les produits développés seront très compétitifs dans un marché nouveau et ouvert dont la valeur atteindra, dès 2020, des milliards de dollars. Le projet regroupe des partenaires […]

This research proposed a method to conduct optimal CLT building design, which has minimum CLT usage and minimum operating energy consumption. This is a multidisciplinary research pushing the boundary of current definition of optimal design for each disciplinary to another level. With the developing of Building information modeling and automized simulation-optimization technology, the design of […]

Le but de cette recherche conjointe UQÀM – Anatis Bioprotection est d’améliorer la production de spores virulents de Beauveria Bassiana. Il fait suite au travail de formulation du projet CRSNG Engage 2010. L’amélioration concerne la quantité et la qualité, i.e. survie, virulence et durée de vie…

Cette étude vise entre autres à mieux comprendre la gestion des dimensions temporelles (travail-famille-vie personnelle) qui conduisent à l’intégration et à la rétention des personnes immigrantes au sein des territoires régionaux du Bas-Saint Laurent/Saguenay Lac St Jean/Abitibi Témiscamingue. Elle a également pour but de favoriser des pistes d’actions desserrant le poids du travail pour favoriser […]

The safety of intersections, interchanges, and other traffic facilities is most often assessed by tracking and analyzing police-reported motor vehicle crashes over time. Given the infrequent and random nature of crashes, this process is slow to reveal the need for remediation of either the roadway design or the flow-control strategy. This process is also not […]

The process for responding to tenders is very long, arduous and involves many repetitive tasks. Among these, it is necessary to read the invitation to tender in order to find the different requirements, important dates, legal obligations, constraints of presentation of the response, etc. All of these factors are used for the prequalification of a […]

Chronic low-back pain (CLBP) is a significant health issue in North America. CLBP patients demonstrate structural changes to and reduced function of the multifidus muscle, which is important to low-back health. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a treatment used to improve pain and function in low-back pain patients, but is frequently painful. Our partner has […]

When construction equipment digs, this generates a complex set of physical interactions between the machine and the soil. Being able to accurately simulate such interactions in real-time opens the door to improved operator training and even adaptively-tuned digging operation that optimize the energy-efficiency of construction equipment. With recent advanced in artificial intelligence (AI), this is […]
