This study proposes a new signal optimization technique that can help reduce crashes at intersections. Using data from sensors installed at the intersections, vehicle trajectories can be used to identify near-misses that would provide insight into crash-risk. By quantifying the crash-risk using extreme value models, a crash-risk metric is derived that can be used to […]

En Colombie, il existe un système cadastral composé de 5 différents cadastres, qui se chevauchent dans leurs compétences et leurs territoires. Il n’y a pas de lien entre les cartes produites pour les cadastres et le bureau de registre foncier. On constate de la confusion dans l’information. Ceci engendre une situation d’insécurité juridique de la […]

Dans le contexte international où les risques sont de plus en plus interconnectés, divers types d’entreprises se trouvent particulièrement exposées aux crises. Pour éviter des impacts, par exemple, sur le plan économique ou de la sécurité du personnel, de nombreuses entreprises développent des outils d’analyse et de gestion des risques. C’est dans ce contexte que […]

This project is focused on the design of patterned metallic claddings for transmissive electromagnetic metasurfaces. These are thin devices that are composed of sub-wavelength unit cells. Metasurfaces can synthesize electromagnetic radiation patterns; thus, they can offer various applications in wireless communications, satellite communications, electromagnetic imaging and remote sensing. The properties of their unit cells are […]

The healthcare sector generates an enormous amount of sensitive data, ranging from patient medical records to billing information. The mishandling or unauthorized access to such data can lead to significant legal, financial, and ethical consequences. Despite increasing awareness of the importance of data security, healthcare institutions often still employ outdated or inadequate encryption methods, posing […]

This project aims to enhance the work with technical drawings in manufacturing is done by using advanced computer techniques to automatically identify and read text within these drawings. This means turning detailed plans and sketches into digital data quickly and accurately, without manual input. For the partner organization, this innovation promises to greatly speed up […]

This project makes it possible for Canadian researchers to share secure and traceable datasets between large computing systems in Canada. These traceable datasets can be used to further reproducible science by allowing everyone in the scientific community to know where the dataset used for experiments is from and that it has not been altered. Traceable […]

Computational electromagnetics (CEM) is a field of research devoted to simulating the complicated electromagnetic systems foundational in our technology, security, and exploration. Historically, problems have been solved by breaking them into many small pieces that can be solved by a computer; an approach that makes it difficult to solve very complicated problems. Today, a new […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

This research project investigates the design of an all-digital transmitter that is suitable for low earth orbit satellite (LEO) networks. Important requirements for the satellite application include a transmit system that has a software reconfigurable hardware platform that is power efficient and can generate modulated output signals at the carrier frequency. The architecture also needs […]

This project develops and benchmarks novel offline training algorithms for AI navigation in gaming environments. As such, it is intended to be a self-contained project. Traditional video game navigation heavily relies on navigation meshes (navmeshes) for pathfinding. Navmeshes offer a simplified representation of complex environments but face limitations in portraying nuanced navigation abilities, such as […]

The First Nations Health Atlas aims to comprehensively analyze diverse administrative datasets from Alberta Health and Alberta Health Services to produce holistic analytics for First Nations health in the province. The initiative’s core objectives include establishing a comprehensive roster of First Nations individuals from Bigstone, Siksika, and Maskwacis nations, analyzing disease incidence and prevalence, scrutinizing […]
