De nos jours, l’analyse des données est au coeur de plusieurs nouvelles technologies, surtout avec l’arrivée de l’ère du « big data » et l’essor du « deep learning ». En effet, les réseaux de neurones profonds appliqués à des données massives révolutionnent certains domaines comme la vision, le traitement de la langue naturelle et […]

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) offer a unique immersive video experience by providing 360-degree video in a panoramic view. Limited bandwidth, demanding high quality, encoder delay, network latency and lack of standards are the main problems to deliver true VR immersive experience. To address these challenges, in this research, we intend to design […]

Bandages have been used to provide compression therapy to manage chronic venous disorders such as leg ulcers and other muscle related orthopedic issues. They have several major problems such as pressure loss over time, no external pressure control, and no massage benefit which make inefficient treatment. There is an imperious need of any innovation which […]

EMBED (Enhanced Measurement-Based Care Effectiveness for Depression) is a multistage collaboration between mental health researchers and advocates based in Canada, China, USA, and Australia. Jointly funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, this 5-year program is the first major research initiative of the APEC Digital Hub […]

Osteoarthritis is an extremely common, extremely costly disease that will become more prevalent as the population ages. Treatment delivered in primary care settings does not always reflect ‘best practice’ care for the disease. In particular, non-surgical and non-drug interventions such as exercise, weight loss and education regarding self management are underutilized. One reason that clinicians […]
