In health care industry, the tests of laboratory analysis are organized and priced in the format of profiles. Each profile contains a specific group of tests. The price of a profile is usually lower than the sum of the prices of individual tests included in the profile. In this project, the intern will develop a […]

L’industrie des centres d’appels est en pleine mutation et, depuis les dernières années, ceux-ci se sont multipliés au Canada, tout comme dans le reste du monde. Alors qu’ils sont souvent vus comme des emplois routiniers et précaires, les emplois de centres d’appels sont, dans certains cas, devenus des emplois qualifiés. Ainsi, pour optimiser l’établissement d’un […]

The research project entails finding a method to detect corroded steel wires used in the manufacturing of tires at Michelin in Bridgewater. This would be achieved using methods that are proven safe for humans and the environment. Also, the detection equipment will be integrated in the existing Michelin facilities in Bridgwater, NS, Canada.

Fraudulent activities are hard to detect, but they cost financial institutions millions of dollars in monetary losses and legal costs every year. Millions of dollars are being lost in credit transactions as criminals are finding new, more sophisticated ways to conduct financial crime. This research project examines novel ways of detecting fraudulent behavior using powerful […]

Reinforcement learning (RL) is the problem of designing an agent that interacts with its environment and adaptively improves its long-term performance. Many complex real-world industrial decision-making problems can be formulated as an RL problem. RL is at the core of artificial intelligence and has the potential of having a huge impact on our economy and […]

Canada and the EU are traditional allies in promoting the UN’s sustainable development goals (SDGs). As many scholars note, the WTO is an indispensable forum for realizing these laudable goals, for instance, the goal 13 fighting against climate change, for the WTO is nearly the only international organisation that has ability to enforce the implementation […]

The emerging edge computing (EC) paradigm promises to deliver superior user experience and enable a wide range of Internet of Things (IoT) applications by bringing storage and computing facilities closer to the end users. Virtualization technologies such as Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) will allow sellers and buyers to access the open […]

Every day millions of customers move through the sales cycles of companies, this generates large sources of event data. This project aims to discover, understand and predict the journeys of their customers. On one hand, the project is interested in describing the data at a higher level. This means to apply machine learning techniques, namely […]

Kindred offers eCommerce retailers a solution to assist with rapid order fulfilment from their distribution centres. The solution (SORT) is a combination of a so-called put-wall and a humanoid robot. The robot picks up items from orders, scans them, and puts each item in a cubby of the put-wall according to the scan code. The […]

The proposed research project seeks to develop protocols that will enable one to measure the functionality of the auditory brainstem in a way that is clinically viable and time efficient. This project aims to minimize the time necessary to conduct an inclusive otoacoustic emissions (OAE) test using contralateral acoustic stimulation. By setting threshold signal to […]

Ce projet vise à utiliser des techniques d’analyse de réseaux afin d’extraire de l’information utile pour le mouvement des caisses populaires Desjardins. Le projet se décompose en trois stages distincts, mais basés sur des concepts similaires. Le premier projet vise à identifier des groupes de membres comportant des affinités, le second consiste à identifier des […]

Ce projet de recherche vise à développer une technologie de pointe qui permettra à une entreprise d’identifier rapidement les appels d’offres les plus intéressants pour elle en fonction des produits et services qu’elle offre. Elle lui permettra également de produire ses soumissions plus rapidement et efficacement. Plus précisément, l’objectif est de développer un logiciel capable […]
