In this research, we propose a model learning documents to fixed-length embedding vector space. This is meaningful, because in vector space, we can find similar documents or measure the relations between documents by simple linear algebra calculation. One of state-of-the-art methods is to apply deep Convolutional Neural Network on language sequences and thus learn different […]

The “Intelligent Camera Switching” research project’s goal is to understand how multiple cameras can be utilized in a meeting space to ensure that remote participants have the best view of the people and activities that take place in the room. This “Best view” should be thought of as providing the best context for activities. A […]

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are used to store data records of activities underlying various business processes, from which Key Performance Indicators (KPI) are derived, providing visibility into the organization. How well the recorded information adheres to business processes and how well those are defined and implemented affect data quality, determining how KPIs accurately portray […]

Blockchain is an emerging technology that has the potential to change the way financial participants transact with each other. It enables direct transfer of value and financial assets between participants over networks without the need for a central authority (internet of value). It does this by combining the functionality of different technologies – distributed systems, […]

Using web crawling technology in coordination with state of the art machine learning techniques, the project aims to mine useful, structured information about the world’s suppliers from the web. Recent advances in artificial intelligence have increased the viability of such autonomous systems for extracting coherent information from arbitrary human-produced content. By leveraging these technologies, our […]

The Ciena Environment for Network Innovation (CENI) is a research project at Ciena which looks in to future computer communications networks with special focus on increased capacity (bandwidth) and control (SDN, or Software Defined Networks). This project operates an international testing network that connects Ciena’s Ottawa research facility to university based network researchers in Chicago, […]

The company wants to develop a state of art recommendation system for the clients. A recommendation system is a piece of software that provides products’ suggestions to customers on a website. For example the products suggestions that can be seen on Amazon’s web page are generated by its recommendation engine. The typical recommendation engines work […]

Lorsqu’une entreprise investit de larges sommes d’argent dans une technologie, elle espère en tirer des bénéfices : diminution de ses coûts d’opérations, amélioration de la relation client, amélioration de la qualité des produits, etc. Ces faits sont mesurés à l’aide d’indicateurs de performance. Chaque entreprise est libre de choisir les indicateurs qu’elle souhaite suivre, mais […]

In this project, the intern will design a decision support framework for optimizing tube utilization in laboratory tests. Given a prescription, the framework automates the tube selection process and outputs low cost tube configurations. The framework is designed to be easily adapted to different lab configurations. It consists of three processes, namely data profile configuration, […]

Kobo is an online e-book retailer that provides recommendations for future purchases to its user base. One difficulty that recommendation systems face is what is known as the “cold-user” problem. In this scenario, when we know so little of a user’s preferences (for example, if they are new to the platform), we do not have […]

The project aims to translate developments in ultra-sensitive MRI sensors to a clinically-relevant setting. To create high-sensitivity sensors for better images, we aim to create a tight-fitting system which places the sensors—akin to antennas—closer to the brain. This will improve the quality of the signals that we can extract from the brain, and allow us […]
