The Internet of Things (IoT) presents opportunities for innovative systems that can be used by companies to get a competitive edge. In this context, 360-Agency is working on integrating an IoT solution, called Reatinos, into her existing system. Modernizing such large software system is a demanding and costly task, and it requires understanding of the […]

This project investigates the development of an online service that empowers individuals at higher education institutions to develop and deploy surveys that reveal how faculty, staff, and students at their institutions perceive open scholarship and inclusive practices. We believe that individuals at higher education institutions will be better able to understand and advocate for open […]

Stuttering is a neurodevelopmental speech motor disorder characterized by dysfluencies. There is no consensus yet on the underlying causes of this disorder, but one hypothesis suggests that people who stutter have impaired rhythmic and timing abilities. Stuttering symptoms can be reduced for example when speaking to a metronome or reading aloud with other people. This […]

The proposed project investigates an approach to solve difficult physics problems, which are too computationally intensive for standard computers, using Xanadu’s near-term quantum computers. The goal of the project is to create a simulation tool that harnesses the exponential increase in efficiency offered by quantum computers to simulate the movement of particles and the subsequent […]

Under the Lab2Market Program, the intern will develop and test a field notes tool called STRATUM to alleviate stresses caused by documentation in the field. The tool development will be guided by the results of three studies: 1) a qualitative investigation of user needs and sources of stress (already underway); 2) a preliminary survey of […]

Manipulation and characterization of ultrafast optical signals are fundamental procedures for a wide range of applications, including telecommunications, biology, quantum information science, spectroscopy, and atomic and molecular physics. In this context, the so-called theory of space-time duality offers a powerful framework for the development of important optical signal processing functionalities. One of its key elements […]

Dans ce projet, nous nous proposons de développer un modèle de simulation qui vise à analyser le flux des patients aux urgences, particulièrement le temps d’attente. Cet outil permettra aux responsables de la coordination du CHUM d’être proactifs dans la gestion des urgences. Il leur servira entre autres à comprendre le comportement du système, identifier […]

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 […]

Developing subject-based social media requires proper interaction with the users by learning and analyzing their profile and dynamically incorporating their opinion. In this project, a crowd-based profiling of users with respect to their peers will be developed and confidence factor calculated based on the collective opinion of the crowd will be assigned to the individuals’ […]

We are witnessing an explosion in the use of machine learning (ML) algorithms with significant impacts on the world’s economic and social activities. The backbone of a machine learning algorithm is a deep neural network which is composed of hundreds to thousands of neurons. To make the neural networks (NNs) functional, they need to be […]

Terrestrial contaminated sites – such as abandoned oilfields, chemical spill sites, or former industrial zones – are a major environmental problem in Canada and around the world. Environmental Material Science has created new environmental monitoring equipment that generates high-resolution spatially and temporally explicit data on environmental quality. The data must be visualized and then used […]
