Currently, energy audits at Dillon Consulting Limited take 2 to 3 days to generate comprehensive reports, consuming significant auditor time due to the manual process. This inefficiency diverts auditors from critical tasks and introduces inconsistencies, especially in buildings with multiple facilities. It limits Dillon Consulting’s ability to meet increasing demand for energy management practices. There […]

Severe sepsis strikes young and old alike with an increasing incidence of >75,000 per year in Canada at a cost of $40,000 per patient. In 40% sepsis is complicated by low blood pressure and organ failure with a mortality rate of 30-60%. The number of deaths due to severe sepsis and septic shock is greater […]

We are currently facing challenges in managing and organizing a growing amount of data. Our existing database structure is becoming increasingly inefficient, leading to difficulties in accessing, analyzing, and utilizing critical information. Additionally, we have identified a need for more thorough research and data analysis to support strategic decision-making. Due to the amount of research […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to explore applications of frequency combs, for which laboratory applications have already been demonstrated, in an industrial setting. The research will be mainly focused on chemical sensing of stack emissions for monitoring purposes. As a secondary objective, the use of frequency combs in vibrometric measurements for structural […]

This study proposes to evaluate the quality of movement in patients with low back pain using a novel device. We are going to measure and compare the movement of people with back pain to that of healthy people. In addition, we plan on correlating the psychological factors associated with low back pain to tissue pathology. […]

Catheter-associated infections (CAIs) pose a significant healthcare challenge in Canada and worldwide. CAIs contribute to increased patient morbidity, prolonged hospital stays, and a significant burden on the healthcare system.

In the age of artificial intelligence, machines learn from vast amounts of data to make predictions and decisions. But what happens when we need them to “unlearn” something—whether to protect privacy, correct biases, or comply with regulations? Existing approaches to machine unlearning can be effective at removing specific data from a model’s memory, but they […]

The number of biomedical scientific publications available in multiple repositories is huge and rapidly growing. As of April 2014, PubMed, the largest knowledge source for biomedical and life science literature, comprises more than 23 million citations. Querying PubMed with the keyword HIV provides a list of almost three hundred thousand citations. Retrieving data of particular […]

Les athlètes d’endurance ont recours à l’entraînement par intervalles de haute intensité afin de maximiser l’éventail des adaptations physiologiques qui sous-tendent la performance aérobie. Cependant, il existe une grande variabilité de réponses à l’entraînement selon les caractéristiques physiologiques des athlètes et de leur sexe, et l’identification des séances d’entraînement bénéfiques à toutes et tous est […]
