The main objective of this project is to investigate, develop and evaluate state-of-the-art deep-learning algorithms for joint few-shot classification and out-of-distribution (OOD) detection. Few-shot learning deals with the challenges of limited supervision, and OOD detection attempts to identify inputs that do not belong to the set of classes seen during training. The two research problems […]

Due to advanced modern technology for continuously measuring and recording data at multiple discrete locations and times, functional data are ubiquitous such as weather data and stock market data. Such kind of data usually has smoothness characteristics in the form of functions with complex structures and can be analyzed through many different techniques developed in […]

Since September 2021, I have worked as a research assistant for Professors Erica Lehrer (Concordia University, Canada) and Joanna Wawrzyniak (University of Warsaw, Poland) to survey existing decolonial curatorial practices in Poland’s museum landscape. My proposed Mitacs Outbound project aims to enrich the current discussion of Poland’s difficult past by bringing Jewish and BIPoC perspectives […]

Online misinformation is a threat to Canada’s democratic processes, economic activities and public health. Individuals need to be empowered to critically evaluate the online information they consume in a consistent manner, otherwise, they will fall victim to manipulation, deception, polarization, radicalization, etc, efforts from malicious cyber actors. The intern will review the latest findings from […]

While the Refresh Wellness App (RWA) is in the research and development phase, Refresh has begun to build a marketing strategy that will aid in the launch and distribution of the app to ensure a positive impact on society as a whole. While the RWA will eventually be available to the public, Refresh plans to […]

The research project aims to develop an approach based on resource management in 5G/6G network slicing to meet the performance requirements of remote surgeries that involve surgeons and patients connected remotely through a highly reliable and efficient network. Remote surgery’s relevance is because it allows low-income patients in vulnerable communities to access complex medical procedures […]

The race to the Internet of things (IoT) paradigm is fueled by leading technological enterprises and governmental institutions for a fast transition into the Fourth Industrial Revolution where machines, sensors and actuators can communicate and process data to enable a more efficient production cycle. To pave the way for the advance in IoT, next-generation wireless […]

Transportation services, ranging from public buses to private logistics fleets, could benefit significant from the introduction of Rogers’ 5G wireless networks. This project has a primary objective to support UBC’s efforts to achieve its 2050 emissions reductions goals, with an emphasis on a reduction of GHG and air pollutant emissions from transportation services.

En 2011, les professeurs Bernier, Kummert, Marcotte et Pasquier de l’École Polytechnique de Montréal ont entrepris le développement d’un logiciel de simulation en géothermie (GHE_Sim). Ce logiciel utilise une approche spectrale afin d’accélérer le calcul de la superposition temporelle et une technique novatrice pour tenir compte adéquatement de l’interaction thermique entre les puits d’un même […]

Delphi Technology has a goal of allowing for the safe piloting of up to five drones in BVLOS applications in order to increase the efficiency of transportation and logistics for clients. Additionally, the UI needs to be expanded in order to accommodate multiple drones, and to provide a simulated 3D environment for better training and […]

Le Centre de mediation des huissiers de justice (CMHJ) souhaite mettre a la disposition du public une plateforme de mediation, accessible depuis son site Internet, qui permettra a tout justiciable de soumettre en ligne une demande de mediation a l’un des huissiers menbre dde la CMHJ et a tout huissier membre de la CMHJ d’initier […]

Cybercriminals are attacking vulnerable systems in all domains and demand ransoms to return their control [2]. This money is paid by anonymous payment systems such as cryptocurrency (e.g., bitcoin) to evade law enforcement [6]. Bitcoin transactions are irrefutable, which guarantees that once the ransom is paid, the money will not be charged back, unlike credit […]
