Next Generation User Product Documentation

Product documentation is an important information tool connecting any business to its end-users and customers. Comprehensive product documentation will likely result in positive evaluation of the products by the customers and may influence their future purchasing decisions. Many studies show product documentation remains an essential element of any new product even for modern electronic devices […]

Studying mispronunciations in accented speech

This project will investigate the impact of foreign accent on native listener’s semantic processing in Spanish. As such, participants will listen to Spanish words that are produced by native Spanish speakers or native Chinese speakers. Stimuli will include commonly mispronounced words in Spanish (e.g. pelo, ‘hair’) and words that are non-commonly mispronounced in Spanish (e.g. […]

Evaluating Delay/Disruption Tolerant Network simulator by Termite

Plant monitoring by sensor devices and cameras contributes to having better environmental conditions for plant growth, irrigation, and productivity. However, transmitting the plant images or sensor data packets in a wide farm is not available over a pre-existing infrastructure network. A Delay Tolerant Network, which may be composed of human-centric devices (also known as a […]

Mining Version Histories To Automate Merge-Conflict Resolutions

In current collaborative software development environments, developers usually work in parallel. They often share changes with other developers or incorporate changes from them, with the help of version control systems (VCSs) such as Git and Subversion. The parallel collaboration process improves the development speed on the one hand, but on the other hand, leads to […]

Étude portant sur la validation d’une technologie visant à soutenir la réalisation de routines par des enfants qui présentent une TDAH ou un TSA

La réalisation des routines quotidiennes représente un défi pour de nombreux enfants présentant des troubles neurodéveloppementaux (TDAH, TSA). Plusieurs outils d’intervention traditionnels proposés pour soutenir les parents dans la réalisation des routines familiales impliquent un investissement de temps important pour les parents et ces stratégies ne sont pas efficaces pour tous les enfants. Les technologies […]

Full characterization of Drug-Drug interactions using deep learning methods

Better understanding Drug-Drug interactions (DDIs) is crucial for planning therapies and drugs co-administration. While, considerable efforts are spent in labor-intensive in vivo experiments and time-consuming clinical trials, understanding the pharmacological implications and adverse side-effects for some drug combinations is challenging. The majority of interactions remains undetected until therapies are prescribed to patients. We propose to […]

Assessment of deep learning for analyzing radar signals in maritime environment

The proposed internships aim at investigating the relevance of deep learning (DL) techniques for target detection in radar data processing. More specifically, we are looking to demonstrate the feasibility of DL techniques to deal with unusual types of data (i.e., radar data) in situations where an well performing processing with classical techniques is a challenge […]
