A plethora of business models have encouraged the proliferation and expansion of devices connectivity through network densification through 5G core solution. The complexity of the network as well as its ability to evolve constantly have change the way to secure is operated. Security needs to be based on constant monitoring to detect malicious behavior across […]

Oxygen therapy is one of the most used treatments during hospitalization, especially in patients with cardiac or respiratory diseases. The latest recommendations emphasize the need to titrate oxygen as precisely as for any other drugs to avoid underdosage (hypoxemia) as overdoses (hyperoxia). Two million patients in the US receive oxygen therapy in the long term, […]

I propose to design a platform to detect and filter out particles on the order of 10 nanometers from a liquid in a dynamic environment. An optical cavity confines very large amounts of light is made by modifying a capillary optical fiber for which the light circulates around the outer edge. This large amount of […]

Since the Brainnetome Initiative and Human Brain Project began, a few efforts have been made to address the computational challenges of neuroscience Big Data. The promises of these two projects were to model the complex interaction of brain and behavior and to understand and diagnose brain diseases by collecting and analyzing large quantities of data. […]

Soil health and fertility has important long-term implications on farming practices. However, farmers and agronomists have difficulties to integrate soil assessment into farming decisions, mainly due to the tedious and long soil sampling process. This project aims at providing an innovative tool for agronomists and farmers to determine instantaneously and accurately several soil characteristics such […]

In every situation humans make observations and analyse the observed information, by combining and evaluating the relationships between the observation to understand the situation. Often these observations can be uncertain, redundant, from unknown sources, contradictory, and too many for a human to be able to analyse fast enough and correctly, leading to incorrect assessment of […]

Mon projet doctoral examine la création artistique contemporaine japonaise suite à l’accident nucléaire de Fukushima, survenu au Japon en mars 2011. J’étudie plus particulièrement le travail photographique de trois artistes japonais qui permettent de rendre visible la contamination radioactive et observe leur réception. Mes recherches au Japon seront composées de séries d’entrevues avec les artistes […]

To what extent do changes in the size of the informal sector affect changes in the quality of goods consumed in developing countries? It is well known that a poor assessment of the quantity and quality of goods consumed by households could lead economic models to underestimate the fluctuations of most macroeconomic variables. However, in […]

Better understanding Drug-Drug interactions (DDIs) is crucial for planning therapies and drugs co-administration. While, considerable efforts are spent in labor-intensive in vivo experiments and time-consuming clinical trials, understanding the pharmacological implications and adverse side-effects for some drug combinations is challenging. The majority of interactions remains undetected until therapies are prescribed to patients. We propose to […]

The proposed internships aim at investigating the relevance of deep learning (DL) techniques for target detection in radar data processing. More specifically, we are looking to demonstrate the feasibility of DL techniques to deal with unusual types of data (i.e., radar data) in situations where an well performing processing with classical techniques is a challenge […]

Forage nutritive value is a key component of profitable dairy production with forage fiber concentration and digestibility being critical, as high quality forages can reduce requirements for high-cost concentrated feeds. One approach and new technology developed to increase forage quality has been the release of high digestibility/lowlignin alfalfa cultivars, as alfalfa is the main forage […]

La transformation du concombre de mer (Cucumaria frondosa) est une activité récente au Canada, présente au Québec et au Nouveau-Brunswick. Cette nouvelle pêcherie a su trouver des marchés lucratifs en Asie et joue maintenant un rôle crucial pour maintenir l’activité économique de communautés côtières dévitalisées. Actuellement, la transformation du concombre génère beaucoup de coproduits (40% […]
