The gearbox is a classical mechanical unit and has been widely used in modern power transmission systems. Fault detection and severity assessment of gearboxes prior to their failure can prevent the sudden failure of gearboxes, as well as enable condition-based maintenance and thus reduce maintenance costs. However, the fault detection and severity assessment are challenging […]

Participation in Mitacs Globalink will allow me to travel to Leipzig, Germany to pursue research at the Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ). I will be working there as an undergraduate researcher within the Department of Computational Hydrosystems directly under Dr. Sabine Attinger. The aim of my project will be to learn and apply their mHM […]

This internship project proposes to develop a new approach to model electromagnetic nonlinear thin regions, such as those encountered in various electrical devices and, for example, constituted by superconducting materials. In fact, it seeks to reduce the computational costs in simulations of devices made of thin layers and consequently allowing more realistic simulations, which is […]

In order to meet the various challenges of food systems, significant support for agroecology can be observed, and more recently in urban areas. This project is a part of my doctoral process, in which I am interested in the rationale, trajectory, functioning and consequences of urban appropriations of agroecology. To study this phenomenon, Madrid is […]

How to build a medical education ecosystem and improve the learning outcome? Currently a medical education system based on mixed reality is missing and bad user interfaces can leave students confused and struggling instead of learning efficiently. The goal of this project is to leverage mixed reality technology, develop a medical education system, and make […]

This project aims to contribute to the ongoing discussions surrounding the topic of the Middle to Upper Paleolithic Transition in Europe which is marked by two turning points in the evolution of our own species, anatomically modern Homo sapiens (AMHS). While Neanderthals, our closest evolutionary cousins, went extinct, modern humans migrated out of Africa and […]

This proposed project aims to enable computers to read and understand a document and answer questions related to the documents by using Machine Reading Comprehension technology. In other words, the goal of the project is to equip computers with a similar reading comprehension ability as human beings. The technology can be used in many contexts, […]

The main goal of this proposed project is to develop a novel bilingual topic model, which explicitly models the word co-occurrence cross-lingual in document-aligned comparable data using a novel merging and shuffling strategy, called CL-BTM. Given a document-aligned multilingual corpus, CL-BTM can be employed to extract latent cross-lingual topics that optimally describe the observed data […]

Working memory impairments are a common co-morbidity of pediatric epilepsy and adversely impact school performance and quality of life. Research in adults with temporal lobe epilepsy suggests that brain networks established in long-term memory (i.e., hippocampus in the mesial temporal lobe) may be involved in working memory, but it is not yet known whether these […]

À ce jour, peu d’études ont été réalisées sur la contribution de l’Académie de Berlin à la pensée d’Emmanuel Kant. Pourtant, cette influence est non seulement véritable, elle détermine grandement l’évolution de certains des thèmes centraux de la philosophie kantienne. Pour ces raisons, une thèse faisant l’analyse des écrits de Kant et des personnages gravitant […]

The objective of this project is to apply machine-learning algorithms for the assisted computational search of new energy materials. In particular, cathodes for Li-ion batteries and solid-electrolyte interphase systems will be explored. Development of new high-performance battery materials is an integral component of overcoming the dependence on fossil fuels and ending the energy and climate […]

Differences in our genes can increase or decrease susceptibility to certain diseases and influence response to drugs. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genetic variation impacts efficacy and toxicity of drugs. To date there are more than 1200 pharmacogenes described in literature, but only a small fraction of them have been implemented into clinical practice […]
