There are currently 18 retina specialists in the province of Alberta, approximately half in Calgary and half in Edmonton. Retinal diseases are common. For example, approximately 6.5 percent of people age 40 and older have some degree of macular degeneration. Diabetes retinopathy affects approximately 500,000 Canadians. Many retinal conditions are treatable when detected early, however […]

Biba is a company that creates interactive experiences for families on playgrounds and provides data for playground owners. This research project explores how can we leverage third party data sources and machine learning to confidently determine how many people are in a playground at a given time and how long they spent there. This kind […]

Reliable high speed wireless data transmission is the primary goal of future cellular systems. A key impediment towards that goal is interference on receivers from transmitters in adjacent cells. Coordinating transmissions between clusters of transmitters is one way of solving this problem. This coordination is more difficult when the types of transmitters and cell sizes […]

Genetic advances over the past 10 years have led to the development of several targeted therapies for lung, breast and colon cancer. However, there are a number of factors that limit the optimal use of these innovations, including the high cost of the organizational process associated with molecular testing, and their late use in the […]

COVID-19 has significantly impacted the world. Nucleic acid, CT, and fever tests are standard tests, but they suffer from various limitations. For instance, CT requires large & expensive equipment. The nucleic acid test is not portable and takes at least two days. As sensor technologies get more advanced, a portable, low-cost and fast diagnosis COVID-19 […]

This project is developed to leverage 3D printing to fabricate personnel protective equipment and other products that can help us navigate the COVID 19 pandemic. 3D printing can be used to quickly fabricate a design idea, but it is a slow process, and there is some inherent porosity, so using this process to make masks […]

Le plan d’intervention du réseau de l’éducation ou de santé ou de services sociaux consiste à définir un système de recommandation impliquant une planification d’actions visant à favoriser le développement et la réussite d’un jeune qui requiert, en raison d’une difficulté ou d’une déficience, la mise en place d’actions coordonnées. Cette planification, qui est réalisée […]

Aphasia is an impairment of language caused by an injury to the brain. Word finding difficulties often accompany aphasia and can persist even after intensive speech therapy, having a negative impact on the person’s social participation and quality of life. Today’s communication aids can improve the ability to effectively communicate but findings from focus groups […]

Two fundamental pillars of communications/communications networks are trust and truth; in particular, we must ensure that the message (or data) that a sender wishes to transmit does indeed reach the intended receiver without being altered or eavesdropped by an unwanted party. This project focuses on demonstrating one concept of the quantum internet. The quantum internet […]

Online multiplayer videogames are popular because most of their content is generated by interactions among players and thus extremely dynamic. Predicting players’ behaviour in these games is necessary to better design and maintain the game environment and to keep the players engaged in the game. These predictions are difficult because a player’s behaviour varies as […]

A true blind party is a service provider that does not have access to unencrypted data of its clients. We note that, in such an environment, the client must securely maintain the many keys that may be required for the files. In addition, if there are collaborating organizations, the client must securely deliver the appropriate […]
