The proposed project is to develop a bioaerosol sampler which will have minimal impact on the infectivity of captured viruses. Airborne viruses are subjected to environmental conditions which could affect their potential of infectivity as well as their capacity to resist the shearing forces and desiccating conditions during sampling procedures with standard sampling apparatuses. This […]

Research has shown that by monitoring the vibration of the heart using a simple sensor mounting on the human chest, the mechanical characteristics of heart can be measured. The purpose of this research is to design software that can automatically find some important points on the SCG signal. The software will be used to find […]

The project being undertaken by the intern will be to develop a sustainability strategy/plan in the form of a report for the host organization’s Okpik Arctic Village. This report will be developed by the intern as they gain important and relevant information though consultations with related stakeholders, conducting environmental impact assessments (based on fuel consumption, […]

Deep Learning (DL) is seen by many as “the” framework to solve complex problems involved in numerous applications that influence people’s lives. It is widely used in safety and security-critical environments such as self-driving cars as well as drones and robotics. This makes it highly essential to secure DL algorithms and systems from malicious actors. […]

NTWIST is a company based in Edmonton, Alberta. Since 2018, NTWIST has provided Artificial Intelligence solutions to the industrial sector to achieve Industrial Excellence. However, the company is under a transition period which response to its recently renewed purpose: to reduce 100 million tonnes of GHG while improving $1 billion in revenue for our industrial […]

Today, electronics manufacturing is one of the world’s largest industries, and it continues to expand with the advent of consumer electronics, from smartphones, wearables, electric vehicles, etc. With Industry 4.0 technologies, electronics manufacturers can transform their production capabilities so that they can be more flexible and responsive to dynamic market forces, and smart electronic factories […]

This research is to create a short experimental film which will facilitate intergenerational conversations between Black-Inuit youth and elders. As a creative expression and telling unknown stories, it aims to strengthen Inuit youth mental health, positive Black-Inuit identity and leadership based on learning what has come before. The outcome of this project, namely the film […]

Le Canada dénombre plus de 830 entreprises de serriculture maraîchère exploitant plus de 1500 hectares. La majorité des exploitations produisent la tomate, générant plusieurs tonnes de matières résiduelles de plastiques. Les types et les volumes de plastiques étant peu documentés, le potentiel de recyclage et de valorisation de ces gisements demeure obscur. Ce projet permettra […]

La production de biodiésel (et donc de glycérol) à partir des lipides devra être effectuée dans des usines de capacité relativement limitée, donc délocalisées. Une délocalisation similaire des usines de conversion du glycérol pourrait alors s’avérer avantageuse ce qui générerait la création d’activité économique nouvelle dans les régions qui comme le Québec ne bénéficient pas […]

We want to improve how we digitally reach our target markets, so that we can grow awareness and increase revenue. To achieve that, this project has several core elements (to be refined with a successful applicant): Audit: To examine our web, ecommerce and social media channels to understand who we are reaching and how they […]

Depuis les dernières années, différents modèles de réseaux de neurones furent développés afin d’améliorer l’apprentissage de connaissances, pour fin de recommandations et de répondre à des questions. Thales utilise présentement des modèles de Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) afin de créer des bases de connaissances de domaine techniques et faire ensuite des recommandations ou questions-réponses à […]

This project will facilitate the development and validation of a novel AI-based model that can improve the quality of PET images such that diagnostic-quality images can be reconstructed from administering a smaller radiopharmaceutical dose to the patient. The two main advantages of this are decreased radiation dose to the patient which decreases the chance of […]
