5G, cloud and IoT confederation vision is to revolutionize the internet by fostering billions of interconnected mobile and embedded devices, sensors, and services, exchanging information in order to build smart, self-conscious autonomous environments. Yet, the ubiquity and value of connected devices and their applications cannot hide their security and privacy challenges. The enormous amount of […]

Factoring large polynomials is one of the main tools provided by mathematical software packages like Maple. It is used by scientists, engineers and mathematicians directly to simplify and study large formulas. It is also used inside Maple to do other tasks such as solving systems of polynomial equations. This project proposes to dramatically improve the […]

Cited is a multimedia knowledge mobilization project that tells stories about research and academia to a general audience. It is experimenting with a unique co-creative approach that puts students, journalists, and researchers together on the same team. Mitacs interns will work with Cited media partners to conduct original research that builds interviews, documentaries, and other […]

L’entreprise StreamScan Inc. produit un « système de détection de compromission » ou (compromize detection system ou CDS), une solution de sécurité innovante, de nouvelle génération qui permet d’identifier l’ensemble des systèmes informatiques (serveurs, équipements réseau, etc.) piratés dans une infrastructure TIC. Ce projet a pour objectif d’adapter le produit CDS au contexte de l’Internet […]

Quantification of human standing balance provides unique insight into the integrity of the human sensorimotor system, including the identification of balance deficits in conditions such as mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), stroke, and aging. While a number of high-cost instrumented balance quantification systems are available, they are primarily geared towards research settings. Novel technologies using […]

The proposed solution will address IoT security challenges by using the blockchain technology to create feasible trust mechanisms. We will develop a solution by which exchanged information remains trusted and confidential to be handled efficiently at different places, and we will apply it to a smart transport use case.

The on-line dating industry currently has over 1400 different sites, including known sites such as eHarmony, Match.com and LavaLife, however, research indicates a general dissatisfaction in the quality of relationship matches generated by these sites. The research proposal will investigate the use of rule based semantic technologies in providing accurate and higher quality matching service. […]

Les tests utilisateurs de nouvelles générations ont recours à des technologies de pointe comme l’occulométrie, l’analyse faciale et de l’activité célébrale et capturent de précieuses informations quant à l’ergonomie et l’usage des interfaces logicielles. Ces pratiques exigent une rigueur et une précision qui obligent les différentes industries à repenser leur méthodologie de développement de produits […]

Deep Learning is the new, and fast growing bread of systems based on artificial neural networks. These are phenomenal at learning patterns and generating new pattern that have the characteristics of the data the system was trained on. One of the main artistic and creative use of Deep Learning is to process images, pictures video. […]

2012 marked a pivotal milestone in the field of neural networks. The intersection of general purpose computing using Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), labelled big datasets, and very large neural networks (called deep neural networks) enabled a break-through in machine learning that has led to impressive results in many fields and applications, such as self-driving vehicles […]

Bassetti offre à ses clients la solution Teexma®, un outil collaboratif permettant de faire la gestion des données techniques des entreprises industrielles. Cet outil permet de structurer, capitaliser et diffuser les données techniques, mais il n’offre pas de fonctions pour faciliter le recoupement de données provenant de sources différentes. Or il s’agit d’un facteur crucial […]

Histopathology is the study and examination of tissue slides under magnification and is the definitive diagnosis for many diseases including cancer. With the advent of whole-slide scanners and image management software systems, computational pathology tools can be created to measure disease in an efficient and objective manner. This is in contrast to the labourious and […]
