Indicateurs d’accessibilité de la population aux espaces verts – Développement d’un outil misant sur les données ouvertes

Les indicateurs d’accessibilité aux destinations permettent de mesurer la performance conjointe des systèmes de transport et d’aménagement du territoire. Bien que leur apport à une meilleure planification des transports ait été largement démontré, ils sont encore peu utilisés en pratique, étant donné les défis liés à leur opérationnalisation. Le projet proposé vise donc à développer […]

A Usability Study of Teacher Help: Classroom Management

The goal of the proposed research project is to evaluate the usability of a new module for an existing eLearning program for classroom teachers called Teacher Help. The new module is designed to provide training in evidence-based classroom management strategies to decrease disruptive classroom behaviour. Participants will be classroom teachers (n =20) and other stakeholders […]

Innovating a crop assessment system using a real-time, hardware-based drone image processing system to support on-the-spot decision in agriculture

Agricultural producers are concerned about producing food, increasing productivity, and making sustainability, while drones along with governments, technology leaders, and industry are playing an important role as a part of solution of this [9]. This drone imagery is for farmers so that, they can fly their fields, and not only pinpoint issues such as, irrigation […]

Association automatique entre symboles et textes dans des documents d’ingénierie

La plupart des documents d’ingénierie comportent des symboles pour caractériser les systèmes qu’ils représentent. Ils comportent également des annotations (identifiants, notes, spécifications) sous forme textuelle pour préciser certaines propriétés importantes ou identifier les composants. Si l’association entre les symboles et les composants est intuitive pour un expert humain, il en va autrement pour un ordinateur. […]

A real-time wideband underwater localization system using passive acoustic monitoring

This project provides a software solution for detecting, classifying, and tracking moving sound sources underwater from the generated sounds. Generally, monitoring shipping traffic largely rely on the automatic identification systems (AIS) installed on the vessels. The ability to track these vessels is at the mercy of the functionality of the transponders onboard the vessels and […]

Machine Learning for Modeling Soil-Tool Interactions

When construction equipment digs, this generates a complex set of physical interactions between the machine and the soil. Being able to accurately simulate such interactions in real-time opens the door to improved operator training and even adaptively-tuned digging operation that optimize the energy-efficiency of construction equipment. With recent advanced in artificial intelligence (AI), this is […]
