Applications of Wearable Data and AI to Augment the i-Share Platform

i-Share is a project being conducted by the Université de Bordeaux. It is one of the largest mental health studies in the world, with the goal of collecting self-report information on mental health (e.g., stress, sleep, physical exercise, depression) from over 20,000 students from French universities. Currently, students have access to personal devices, such as […]

Towards Developing an Artificial Intelligence-based System for Detection of Cyber Attacks in Modern Industrial Control Systems

Modern Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are increasingly getting connected to the Internet to facilitate operations. To ensure safety on the internet, the ICS communications are being encrypted. This poses a challenge for the traditional Intrusion Detection Systems that used to rely on visible messages and control data communication for detecting the presence of known attacks […]

Using causal probabilistic fuzzy logic (PFL) rules integrated with Deep learning algorithms (DLs) to analyze Electroencephalography (EEGs)

Major Depression Disorder (MDD) is a big problem in our society. About 8% of Canadians may suffer from depressions in their life. Major depression can cause suicide and take families apart. Canadian governments spend more than $51 billion a year in the mental health sector. When treatment with medications fail, mental healthcare professionals, use Electroconvulsive […]

Enhanced Modelling of Exfiltration Events in Sun Life Cybersecurity Data

Theft or loss of sensitive data is a growing concern for companies who may suffer losses of consumer confidence, market valuation and intellectual property when large amounts of data are stolen. In this research project we will use an enhanced “screen and review” approach to combating exfiltration in a large data set of activity logs […]

Implementation of Photonic Computing Chip (IPCC)

The IPCC project aims to utilize the advancements in lasers, optics and semiconductor fabrication facilities to deliver a computing chip that uses laser instead on electrical signals to perform computations. The new paradigm of computation execution allows computations to be performed much faster at lower energy consumption which directly leads to lower costs for computations. […]

Development of an efficient coding for CDMA-based passive RFID tags

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio frequency to identify and track tags attached to objects. This technology is employed in different industries such as asset tracking, supply chain management, ID badging, etc. Current solutions for object tracking have limited precision, suffer from low performance, and are expensive and complex. In this […]
