One purpose of the proposed research project is to contribute to the My Normative (MyN) app development by increasing the number of users on the app and maintaining long-term app usage. The second purpose is to verify the accuracy of the app’s menstrual cycle prediction in female persons of varying cycles less than or greater […]

In the era of big data, software based on artificial intelligence has greatly improved the quality of people’s lives. Although data is not a scarce resource, the data we collected are usually incomplete due to many reasons, i.e. they contain some missing values. Simply deleting these missing data will not only cause great waste, but […]

Additive manufacturing is rapidly employing the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems to facilitate its reliability and relieve human supervision. However, with 5G network and cloud computing intertwining with the physical machines placed locally, the service is vulnerable to prospective cyberattacks. Various researchers have already stressed the urgent need to ensure the users’ and businesses’ […]

The industry partner, Metafor is developing a new class of IT system management solution. As part of this project, Metafor is building a product feature that monitors computer and network activities and looks for signs of anomalies. This is an important problem as anomalies are usually associated with abnormal user or system behaviors that can […]

Several de-icing systems have been developed to reduce economic losses and safety hazards due to ice and snow accretion on home pathways. These de-icing systems need to be energy-efficient, and therefore, must be accompanied by high-performance sensors capable of accurately detecting ice and snow to control the de-icing system. In addition to this application, recent […]

This project investigates whether a user’s entered information in e-commerce sites is fake or real. In order to achieve the goal of understanding and identifying fake users, data are to be collected, managed, and analyzed. In addition to using existing data from the e-commerce partner organization and some third-party data if available, the two major […]

This project will develop a loss of balance detection system to enhance the iMD Research Vital Zenzer, which monitors vital user biometrics. Accelerometer signals from both waist and wrist-worn body locations will be analyzed to obtain key inputs for Machine Learning and AI algorithms. Such algorithms will be developed to adapt to changing user conditions […]

Scientific research papers are complex, dense, and filled with jargon, so traditionally the valuable knowledge they contain has been accessible to only a handful of experts. SAGE publishing, one of the world’s largest academic publishers, and Dr. Adam Frost, a cognitive neuroscientist, independently created video formats that help scientists directly communicate their discoveries and practices […]

This project will engage seniors, family members, and care staff, a total of 53 participants in a long-term care home to adopt a new technolopgydevice, Tochie for familyconnection. Participants will use the assistive audio speakers named Tochie over one month. Ongoing support and assistance will be provided to all participants during the one month to […]

Korbit Technologies Inc. is developing an e-learning platform to teach artificial intelligence (AI), data science and coding skills. The student interacts with a virtual, personalized AI tutor, through a web-based chat interface. The main objective of this research project is to investigate how a personalized, data-driven learning experience based on the student’s profile, needs, and […]

The company is eliminating the pain of manually going through document and quickly providing relevant information to support data-driven strategic decisions. Presently XLScout hosts a data vault of over […]

Chronic pain (CP) is a prevalent, disabling, and costly disorder. The gold standard treatment for chronic pain is care from an interdisciplinary pain clinic (IPC) – a rare resource in Canada that is often associated with long wait times (up to five years). These long wait times increase the risk of physical and mental deterioration […]
