Decentralized Electric Microgrid Optimization by Reinforcement learning

The goal of this project is to improve the management of electric community microgrids. In contrast to traditional power grids with large centralized power plants that provide energy in a top down fashion to consumers, the introduction of renewable energy such as solar has given rise to bottom-up electric microgrids of prosumers (i.e., consumers that […]

A high throughput mass spectrometry-based screening test for early-stage colon cancer

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cancer-related cause of death in Canada. This high mortality rate is largely due to the lack of a cost-effective, patient-accepted and sensitive screening tool. Metabolomic Technologies Inc. (MTI) has developed a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based urinary diagnostic test for detecting colonic polyps (PolypDx™). Identification of adenomatous polyps […]
