Les problèmes de santé mentale (anxiété, dépression, etc.) touchent aujourd’hui plus de 650 millions de personnes à travers le monde. Les premiers symptômes apparaissent habituellement entre 14 et 24 ans. Bien que les solutions humaines et technologiques existent, il est difficile de trouver la bonne solution au bon moment. Le projet est de proposer un […]

Réaliser une animation réaliste d’un visage dans l’industrie du jeu vidéo est un défi technique. Il est extrêmement complexe, y compris pour les meilleurs animateurs 3D, de produire une animation faciale réaliste. Une manière de résoudre ce problème est de le voir d’un autre angle : pourquoi simuler une chose que l’on peut capturer ? […]

Dans l’industrie du jeu vidéo l’innovation est la règle et les investissements sont donc importants et fréquents. Conséquemment, les enjeux concernent le support à l’innovation et la capacité d’attirer et de garder les meilleurs employés. Dans les deux cas, la réponse passe par l’environnement physique, social et technologique des équipes de développement. L’objectif de cette […]

PUBLIC is an innovative art journal published by Public Access exploring the intersection between art, technology and contemporary culture.

The project involves conducting a study to evaluate human performance in executing simple drawing tasks like drawing curves and lines from various directions. The study will help ascertain the accuracy and ergonomic aspects of 3D drawing. We will then use the results of the study to design a 3D sketching system combining augmented reality glasses […]

Item-to-item and user-to-item recommendations are prevalent on most ecommerce websites and digital content related mobile applications. At Kobo, we strive to constantly improve our recommendation system, which is based on co-purchase patterns on Kobo’s website or through Kobo eReaders and mobile apps. This internship is to explore improving the system along several dimensions: incorporating additional […]

Companies usually use private forums to share sensitive information and discuss strategies. Valuable business knowledge is hidden inside the user generated content in these forums and waiting to be extracted and reused. Knox Community Forum, a thriving private forum inside Samsung where employers from all around the world post content like win notices of deals, […]

Online discussion forums are examples of social media that are becoming popular. The goal is to develop efficient and scalable techniques that work on large amounts of conversational text to separate the posts that truly matter from irrelevant ones, as well as techniques that are easily adaptable to new domains and forums. VerticalScope, Inc. is […]

Automated human body pose estimation and activity recognition in videos is still one of the challenging problems in computer vision. Generally, it is becomes a significantly difficult task in real world applications due to camera motion, cluttered background, occlusion, and scale/viewpoint/perspective variations. Moreover, the same action performed by two persons can appear to be very […]

This project will investigate and develop advanced algorithms for high dynamic range projection using caustic image formation. These algorithms dynamically redirect light from dark image regions to bright regions, which addresses the problems of low peak luminance and poor black levels in current projectors. The algorithms will improve upon existing lensing methods by increasing computational […]

Depuis quinze ans, Hydro-Québec organise des formations sur l’Initiation au code de sécurité des travaux Postes et centrales et Initiation aux risques d’induction, mise à la terre et foudre. Ces formations de trois jours s’adressent à toute personne appelée à intervenir chez Hydro-Québec. Visant un meilleur coût d’opportunité, Hydro-Québec a choisi d’intégrer une nouvelle modalité […]
