La robotique collaborative est une condition préalable à l’industrie 4.0. La tendance actuelle est de produire et de programmer des robots qui ont la capacité de travailler ensemble, ou à proximité, avec des humains dans un environnement partagé. La suppression d’une barrière physique (ou virtuelle) pour le robot entraîne de nombreux défis, dont le plus […]

James Henry Leigh Hunt (1784-1859) was one of the most prolific and influential writers on British culture and politics in the first half of the nineteenth century. “Reading Leigh Hunt Anew” will investigate in great depth Hunt’s interactions and networks. “Reading Leigh Hunt Anew” consists of two tightly interrelated projects on Hunt, one of the […]

L’intelligence artificielle (IA) est de plus en plus présente dans la vie quotidienne. Dans ce contexte, l’éducation à l’intelligence artificielle (IA) devient un enjeu important, autant pour développer des compétences utiles à plusieurs emplois que pour l’exercice de la citoyenneté. Peu de pays intègrent l’apprentissage de l’IA dans l’éducation des jeunes. Ce faisant, une fracture […]

The challenge is how to effectively communicate our capabilities. Also, how to utilize and effectively use multimedia channels to educate and engage our audiences. Through this project, we are hoping that using storytelling will breathe emotions into the products and help U Technology revolutionize technical communications and product launching in the LED industry. There is […]

In Deep Learning, one of the most important determinants of the performance of a model is the training procedure used. The ideal training method produces a model that is accurate and fast, it should work on models of various sizes and be flexible enough to allow users to specify conditions they want the model to […]

SIA is enlisting the support of a Mitacs intern to develop a Social Innovation Consulting Group (SICG) – a new initiative within the SIA umbrella. SIA is looking to expand its programs to include longer-term consulting engagements in partnership with a post-secondary institution in Canada. While the Social Innovation Fellowship currently offers 8-week projects, there […]

The number of people requiring indoor navigational assistance (e.g., blind, elderly people) is increasing rapidly all over the world. People often get lost in complex places like hospital buildings. Unfortunately, the GPS service is not available indoor. The main objective of this project is to develop a robust and fast navigational technique based on continuous […]

In today’s world, the video chat and conferencing has been a necessary part of overall routine life (both personal and work). Currently, the video chat and broadcast technologies require lots of bandwidth to transmit high quality data. In overall project, we aim to make video transmission data intelligent by using the state-of-the-art AI technology. This […]

Ce projet de recherche vise à concevoir un modèle de prévention du COVID-19 basé sur les techniques d’Intelligence Artificielle (IA) et de l’internet des objets (IoT). Les données physiologiques seront obtenues des dispositifs intelligents et des bases de données virtuelles. Ces systèmes serviront pour le développement d’un outil de mesure et d’observance des indicateurs chez […]

Understanding pedestrian dynamics is crucial to the design of pedestrian facilities. Although pedestrian flows are part of everyday life, many basic characteristics of pedestrian dynamics cannot yet be described in detail. The aim of the PhD project is to study the upper body rotation of pedestrians when crossing a narrow passage (bottleneck). Since the movement […]

At a high level, the goal of this project is to create a system for producing synthetic datasets based on real data. As a large financial crime detection firm, Verafin deals with large volumes of sensitive data which must be kept private, however they are also interested in collaborating with academics to gain new insights […]

Medical devices, like other computer systems, can be vulnerable to security breaches, potentially impacting the safety and effectiveness of the devices. Left unmitigated, these vulnerabilities could allow unauthorized users to access, control, and issue commands to compromised devices, potentially leading to patient harm, identity theft, ransomware, and other illicit activities on patients’ accounts. However, security […]
