AIM Colours is looking to revolutionize self-expression by combining cosmetics with technology through the creation of eCosmetics. We envision eCosmetic applications as devices that can be continuously colour-manipulated from any mobile device, creating a world where anyone can be empowered by make-up instantaneously. This project requires the seamless integration of engineering and science to ensure […]

Ka:’yu:’k’t’h’/Che:k’tles7et’h’ First Nations (KCFN) identified a need to monitor ecological and cultural valued components as well as human activities on Treaty Lands and hahuulth (land and water), and are in the early stages of creating a Stewardship Program that is intended to meet this need. This project aims to support the stewardship program development by […]

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 […]

Data is rapidly growing in most of the applications and fields. Thus, data is becoming big data as it meets the 5V model of big data: volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value. As a result, dimensionality reduction and feature selection become mandatory to overcome ML models’ performance and explainability issues. This project looks at feature […]

Electronic Article Surveillance systems, which are used to help retailers detect shoplifted items, suffer from two major problems. First, the systems often fail to detect EAS tags/labels that are present within the ‘detection zone’ of the gate. Secondly, false detection indications when EAS tags/label are not present within the ‘detection zone’ of the gate. As […]

L’objectif du projet est de créer une antenne imprimée (microstrip) sur un substrat à déterminer. Cette antenne devra fonctionner sur une bande de fréquences précise (24.000 GHz à 24.500 GHz) et devra aussi éviter autant que possible de réféchir les signaux vers le générateur afin d’être efficace. Afin de bien répondre aux besoins de l’entreprise, […]

Current RFID tags process reveals that it is impossible to set the cost per tag to less than 5 cents. Similarly, area is a precious quantity. Much of the area in a tag is used by digital logic and capacitors. Merely adding more area is not a sustainable solution. This project will help the community […]

We are developing a robotic platform and agent that is able to translate instructions (e.g. “bring me the newspaper”) into a series of low-level programs (moving between rooms, locating objects, interacting with objects) and executing these autonomously. Traditionally, in hierarchical reinforcement learning, tasks are executed sequentially, but we would like to focus on parallelization and […]

Pour répondre à l’imprévisibilité des environnements — au désordre ambiant — les organisations tentent d’ajouter de la robustesse et de la résilience par le contrôle. Ce faisant, elles sclérosent leurs structures et se coupent des humains. L’attention se porte alors sur la performance interne et sur la vélocité; sans égard à la qualité ou à […]

The intent of this project is to build a web-page content subsection identification and analysis service. The subsections of a web-page are considered to be meaningful page components (articles, images. media blocks) that can be identified and uniquely fingerprinted. The intent of the project is fourfold: a) sub-component identification and fingerprinting b) sub-component content change […]

This research project informs an essential part of my broader doctoral research which investigates the aesthetic and rhetoric practices developed by today’s far-right populist movements for their propaganda and communication on social media. Working along with Professor Vijay Mago and DaTALab researchers I will generate, collect, and analyse a wide range of new and original […]

Ce stage a comme objectif l’optimisation de l’algorithme d’analyse olfactive developpe par Odotech. Une expertise poussee du domaine des mathematiques et plus particulierement en statistique sont necessaires a ce stage. C’est dans cette optique, qu’Odotech a offert un stage a un etudiant a la maitrise en statistique du departement de mathematique de l’Universite de Montreal. […]
