Based on the user’s geo-location, timestamp and other attributes (eg. time of day, past visit history and app behavior categories, etc.), a machine learning algorithm can be developed to find which cluster the users belong to. Overall, the data of geo-location and timestamp are used to roughly locate the potential clusters. This project will involve […]

Opioids have received much attention in the media, public and government because of the risks associated with them, including fatalities. Concurrent use of BZRAs (benzodiazepines used for treating anxiety and insomnia) and opioids is of particular concern because this is a recognized risk factor for fatal opioid overdoses. Despite this warning, concurrent use is still […]

This project is intended to further the videogame industry’s understanding of user presence and immersive game design, where the player feels that they exist in a virtual space and can control a virtual environment with their physical body. Rather than trying to achieve immersion in a virtual world by escaping from the body, this project […]

Progress monitoring is an essential task in all construction projects. A proper progress monitoring can minimize the level of project overruns, which is very common among construction projects but incurring significant loss to public and private funds annually. Manual methods of progress tracking are too infrequent to represent continuous and live insights about the workplace. […]

La rotation de personnel est un problème majeur dans l’industrie des soins de santé à domicile. Dans un contexte où le travail des intervenants est particulièrement basé sur une relation de confiance avec les patients, la prévention de la rotation est déterminante pour le continuum et la qualité des soins prodigués. Perdre un infirmier ou […]

Analytical applications in large organizations across even intermediate time ranges are often made complex, costly or even impractical due to temporal inconsistencies in the available data. The ever-changing nature of organizations causes categorical labels in data to change over time. This is particularly true for HR data, as the organization adjusts to changes in skillsets, […]

Game-based learning tools often make use of questions to measure and encourage learning, but generating questions can be challenging, especially at the scale that companies like Axonify are required to do. In this project, the intern will design, implement, and evaluate a system that can apply machine-learning on a corpus of text (e.g., a textbook) […]

Qubits are fundamental units for quantum computation. Photonics is a promising physical medium to realize large-scale quantum computation. One proposal to realize photonic qubits was proposed by Gottesman, Kitaev and Preskill (GKP). Here, the logical qubit is encoded into states of a bosonic mode or a quantum harmonic oscillator. It is expected that such a […]

The purpose of this study is to develop a structural model that enhance the effectiveness of the financial advisory services. The primary value proposition Betterworth wants to demonstrate to the financial institution is how the betterworth platform will make financial advisors’ more efficient, enabling them to attend to more clients, cut their operational costs, target […]

Different groups of people like to find and use different kinds of information. This is true of First Nations as their information and knowledge needs extend beyond the walls of libraries or archives and into museums and the communities themselves. The collaboration between tribal and nontribal Archives can be mutually beneficial but first it is […]

The emerging technology company is in a dynamic environment where everything is changing turbulently, not only the actors but also the environment itself. For such emerging companies it is crucial to rely on local innovation communities in order to build and maintain a competitive advantage while balancing a number of paradoxes relater to their involvement […]

Shopify has a well-developed partnership with universities for a work-integrated Bachelor of Computer Science degree. It is in their best interest to see their student interns successfully transition to the work place. In the application part of this study, we will use a fuzzy cognitive map (that is, a special type of a graph) to […]
