OrbMedic, an Ottawa-based company, is developing the OrbMedic ADPT system, an advanced technological solution designed to detect and address early indicators of mental health challenges by analyzing physiological signals such as heart rate and skin conductance. Recognizing that individual physiological responses can vary widely, this research project seeks to refine the OrbMedic ADPT’s analytical capabilities […]

Favorable propagation studies for massive MIMO systems: mMIMO is a key technology for 5G and beyond, due to its ability to deliver high spectral efficiency/rate in multi-user environments using simplified (linear) processing. Its advantages can be fully exploited under certain conditions known compactly as “favorable propagation” (FP). Unlike the known methods, which rely on sophisticated […]

This project aims to develop a user-friendly visualization system for Thrive Health, a digital health solutions company. The visualization interface will be designed to effectively present a person’s health journey. This will be particularly helpful for patients with complex health conditions, as it will enable them to communicate their situation more clearly to their healthcare […]

The communications lead project for Dicerra includes responding to and engaging with stakeholders in healthcare at the executive and ministerial level. Dicerra aims to reduce medical errors and their associated harm and costs. This involves high level discussions with stakeholders to socialize our concept and advance the roll out and adoption of our web and […]

This project aims to edit and publish a work authored by Elizabeth English entitled Arkhitektura and Mnimosti (the Imaginary) : The Origins of Soviet Avant-Garde Rationalist Architecture in the Russian Mystical-Philosophical and Mathematical Intellectual Tradition. . The project will study a series of architects and support understanding of the revolutionary physical, intellectual, and cultural Russian […]

My project for the Elevate Fellowship aimed to develop the “Narreme Engine” application to assess the validity of “Narreme Theory” — a concept I devised during my PhD, positing that stories consist of atomic narrative units called Narremes, which combine into more complex “Compounds” to convey narratives over time. The Narreme Engine sought to apply […]

Scoring essays is important for learning and business. With AI and machine learning, we can save time and resources by automating the process. This project looks at automatic essay grading from three angles. First, we generate more data using automatic methods called data programming. This helps improve the machine learning models. Then, we refine the […]

Au Québec, le processus de conception d’un pont allant de l’avant-projet préliminaire jusqu’à sa réalisation peut prendre plusieurs années. Durant ce processus, plusieurs hypothèses sont utilisées afin d’établir un dimensionnement sommaire des divers éléments. Lors du dimensionnement final, le concepteur utilisera habituellement les dimensions établies préalablement et fera de petits ajustements afin de s’assurer que […]

This project aims to integrate a chat interface into the UpBeing app to allow users to engage more deeply with their insights. It consists of informing a large language model (LLM) of a user’s most recent insights, which will give it real time ground truth a users’ recent experience, thereby empowering the LLM to provide […]

The research project will test how nature based solutions (NbS) could be integrated into real projects for climate change adaptation in Canada. The research project will provide a guideline for professionals to understand, justify, and measure the financial and non-financial value of NbS in adaptation work. This project will robustly translate theory into practice, considering […]

In this research project, we aim to explore the role of the bacteria living within the urinary tract, or the urinary microbiome, during kidney transplantation. Using urine samples from human kidney transplant recipients and donors, we will use bacterial gene sequencing to determine how the urinary microbiome changes over time and during rejection of the […]

Cloud computing is gaining traction during this last decade through its offering of almost unlimited computer resources accessible from anywhere with minimal management efforts. However, one of its less favorable aspects is security. Currently, the flexibility and elasticity of the cloud are not adequately used to put in place a more efficient defense. This project […]
