A Prototype for a Privacy-Aware Health Sharing App

Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are validated questionnaires with which respondents self-report their health status. This may include symptom severity, functional status, and quality-of-life data. PROMS are an increasingly important part of the communication between a patient and their healthcare team. Beyond the individual encounter, PROMs data is also critical to healthcare systems providing more personalized […]

Characterization of KPI Outliers from Logs Using Data Mining

Ubisoft records the interaction between its customers and its servers in large execution logs (also called traces). Any failure of the system is thus recorded therein. However, the considerable size of these logs considerably hinders their effective use by analysts and developers. We propose an automated method to detect failing executions, and furthermore to characterize […]

Advanced Nystagmus System (ANSTM) as objective diagnostic tool for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and concussion: A validation study using structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging

Annually, 2 million individuals in North America suffer mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) or concussion (cost: $75 billion), with 200,000 in Canada. An objective tool is required to distinguish concussed subjects acutely from ontrols, and to predict who will develop chronic symptoms. The frontal lobes, the corpus callosum, and the thalamus play key roles in […]

OPTIMIZATION FOR BUSINESS SYSTEMS AND CONVERSATIONAL ANALYTICS (Retail Personal Store Manager)

State-of-the-art forecasting: Demand planning is a critical part of a business’ operations. Traditional approaches to forecasting use statistical methods to predict future demand from past transactions, but do not take into account contextual data. However, there are good reasons to believe that contextual data – such as weather, events, product descriptions, sentiment analysis (from reviews, […]

Privacy Guarantees and Risk Identification: Statistical Framework and Methodology

A risk-based approach to anonymization includes an assessment of the risk that an attack to reveal or uncover personal information will be realized, known as threat modelling, against the risk that an attack on the data will be successful (e.g., a re-identification). We wish to incorporate the provable guarantees of differential privacy into this assessment […]
