Obtaining reliable information is crucial for humanitarian workers who aim to respond to a catastrophic situation. In this context, there are many possible sources of information (e.g., local population; journalists; authorities), but only a limited time to gather data, analyze them and respond to the situation. Since 2010, a new way of gathering data has […]

The Dairy Farmers of Canada (DFC), in collaboration with the Obesity Canada [formerly known as the Canadian Obesity Network- Réseau canadien en obésité (CON-RCO)] developed a new public educational tool on healthy living called “Let’s talk about weight: No size fits all”. This educational resource targets Canadian adults who may be concerned about their weight […]

Video analytics is an active fields of research, where state-of-the-art systems rely on a variety of computer vision and machine learning techniques for accurate modeling and recognition from large-scale video datasets. Person re-identification is a key problem found in numerous application areas, e.g., video surveillance, summarization, and sports analysis, and seeks to match people across […]

En empêchant le développement normal des fruits, les punaises ternes occasionnent des pertes économiques majeures pour les agriculteurs de fraises. Ils utilisent donc des méthodes de luttes pour réduire la densité de ces insectes qui changent les paramètres déterminant la survie des individus. Ce projet permettra d’examiner comment ces méthodes de lutte occasionnent un changement […]

The vast majority of performance techniques, illusion aesthetics, and specialized apparatuses used by stage conjurors are still unknown and remain unexplored by the circus world. The tacit knowledge that magicians exchange amongst themselves is rarely transferred to members outside of their subculture, which leads to creative stagnation in their communities and beyond. The purpose of […]

Au Canada, les petites installations d’assainissement autonome (non-raccordées aux réseaux d’égout) contribuent à produire 20% de la quantité totale des eaux usées. Ces petites installations de traitement des eaux résiduaires sont souvent caractérisées par une difficulté à atteindre les normes de rejets, lesquelles sont de plus en plus sévères. La dénitrification autotrophe utilisant le soufre […]

Nucleom est une entreprise canadienne proposant des services de contrôle non destructif (CND) pour diverses applications telles que l’inspection de réacteurs nucléaires ou de pipelines. Ce projet de recherche fortement appliquée permettra un transfert de connaissance entre le laboratoire d’accueil et le partenaire industriel. Le projet principal aura pour objectif d’évaluer les possibilités d’inspection ultrasonore […]

The large global production quantity of particleboard and medium density fiberboard (MDF) creates equal quantity of particleboard and MDF waste after completing their service life. Given increasing demand for green products and the new government’s environmental policies, it is urgent to develop technologies to recycle these used composite panels into valuable raw materials for manufacturing […]

In recent years, significant scientific breakthroughs have opened the door to harnessing the immune system to fight cancer. One potential group of targets, known as G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), have proven challenging due to their membrane localization and the existence of several close analogues, which often leads to ineffective or even non-specific mode of […]
