This project will involve developing tools and conducting analyses to improve the efficiency and quality of a quantitative ultrasound (QUS)-based machine learning pipeline. The student will work within a company that uses raw ultrasound image data captured on mobile devices to produce liver health scores (measured in kPa). These scores are used to assess liver […]

Procurement Intern: Norsat International Inc. aims to improve its procurement operations by streamlining supplier relationships, managing inventory more effectively, and ensuring that product deliveries align with the company’s operational goals. The challenge is to enhance the efficiency of supplier communication and ensure timely product deliveries to meet production needs without delay. This requires gathering detailed […]

Le projet vise à développer un pipeline pour l’apprentissage automatique pour aider à la gestion d’ensembles de données, des caractéristiques, des modèles, des hyperparamètres, des métriques, des logiciels, des configurations et des journaux. De plus, diverses méthodes d’optimisation des hyperparamètres seront comparées pour augmenter le nombre de modèles testés sans nécessiter davantage de ressources, en […]

The research project focuses on developing a new type of filter material, called charge-switchable ion exchange resin, that can effectively remove harmful chemicals known as PFAS from water. Unlike traditional filters that require harsh chemicals to clean and regenerate, this new material can be easily regenerated for reuse by simply adjusting the water’s pH, making […]

Thermal comfort can be broadly defined as a scenario where an individual expresses satisfaction with their thermal environment. However, our thermal environment is rarely constant, and these changes in our thermal environment can negatively affect our thermal comfort. Additionally, a certain thermal environment can be comfortable for one person but uncomfortable for another, because our […]

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a challenge for many as the world’s population ages. Pain is a common problem for people with PD, and usual pain treatments often have side effects. Some PD patients find relief in singing, which also helps with voice difficulties related to PD. There’s evidence suggesting that group singing might even reduce […]

This project focuses on advancing sustainability in the HVAC industry by completing an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Delta M’s innovative recyclable air filters. These filters are designed to reduce waste, enhance energy efficiency, and lower operational and health-related costs compared to traditional cardboard filters. By conducting a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and aligning with […]

Nickel Bros, a leading structural moving company in North America, faces the challenge of efficiently estimating and coordinating complex structural moving projects. As the industry evolves, the demand for precise and competitive bidding has intensified, requiring the company to enhance its estimating processes and improve communication with suppliers and subcontractors. This project’s primary activities involve […]

UV light is known for its antimicrobial properties. In this project, we expect to use a proprietary lamp that will provide a specific light that will target bacterial, fungal, and viral strains commonly found in healthcare facilities. The project’s results will have a direct impact on sterilizing areas with a high number of healthcare providers. […]

This research project, a partnership between UQTR and TecScan, focuses on developing a flexible, multi-element eddy current sensor array that can adapt to complex geometries to improve the accuracy of non-destructive testing. This sensor is designed to scan surfaces with varied shapes, addressing the requirements of the aerospace sector. TecScan, specializing in non-destructive testing technologies, […]

Networks are pervasive in our world. From migrating birds flying in formation, to social groups, wireless networks, world-wide web, the examples are endless. Migrating birds, such as the Canada goose, are a good example of a network between agents where information is communicated based on real-time musical (acoustic) signals. Inspired by this example, the research […]

Axonal Networks and Concordia University are working together to develop low-power, high-throughput optical transceivers using linear drive techniques. This technique avoids extensive in-transceiver digital signal processing and clock/data recovery in favour of modest equalization, relying on the linearity of the channel and the equalization capabilities of the host chips at the ends of the optical […]
