Ce projet vise à mettre au point de nouvelles méthodes d’intelligence artificielle pour améliorer la détection de chutes à l’aide d’un radar. L’utilisation d’un radar permet la détection de chutes dans un domicile tout en protégeant la vie privée des personnes grâce à l’absence de prise d’image et ne nécessite aucun capteur porté. Cela permet […]

With this project, we aim to increase our knowledge and experience in recommender systems. We are specifically interested in testing various data structures and algorithms that will allow us to provide recommendations to our users based on their interest (user-user), as well as the intrinsic similarities between different elements of our database (item-item). Based on […]

In Canada itself, there are 27 million eCommerce users that accounting to 75% of the Canadian population (International Trade Administration, 2022) Hackers constantly attempt to isolate and target vulnerabilities not […]

The proposed project on cooperative multi-robot systems addresses one of the recognized major challenges and opportunities in collaborative robotics (Cobots). For multi-robot groups, optimizing transportation efficiency for the workpiece while at the same time achieving whole-body obstacle avoidance in a cluttered manufacturing environment is highly involved due to the physical coupling of the system between […]

Terahertz (THz) waves are a type of radiation located between micro-waves and infrared light. This radiation possess both the qualities of micro-waves passing through walls and infrared which can be used to image an object. In the current project of the student, electro-optic sampling (EOs) method is used to detect THz pulse’s phase in reflexion […]

A web task is defined as the set of services, sessions, and sequence of interactions that are required to perform a certain user objective. The current Web tasking model does not consider user preferences and context when executing a Web task.
