Transport, technologie et handicap à l’ère du numérique: Analyse comparée de l’accès inclusif à Tokyo et à Québec

L’objectif général de ce stage Globalink – d’une durée prévue de 12 semaines – est de réaliser une analyse comparée de l’évolution de l’accès inclusif à Tokyo et à Québec. L’analyse se concentre sur les facilitateurs et les obstacles rencontrés par des personnes ayant une incapacité motrice dans l’accès et l’utilisation d’écosystèmes de mobilité urbaine. […]

Development of field-ready AI model for estimation of compressive strength of concrete using non-destructive testing methods

The proposed project aims to apply artificial intelligence methods to augment in-place non-destructive testing technologies in order to reduce or eliminate the need for intrusive methods (i.e. concrete core extraction) for concrete strength estimation. The proposed approach is based on the SonReb method, which combines two non-destructive testing technologies, namely ultrasonic pulse velocity and rebound […]

Decolonizing knowledge mobilization to advance Indigenous led conservation and reconciliation

The objective of this research project is to build capacity among Indigenous Nations and the conservation sector to catalyze reconciliation through the establishment of Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs). To do so, this we will investigate how knowledge and evidence-based research can be effectively communicated in cross-cultural and Indigenous contexts. While the field of […]

Knowledge translation tools to promote health behaviour change

Canada is a multi-cultural nation that welcomes immigrants from around the world, many of whom present a high prevalence of chronic medical conditions and its risk factors. To minimize this burden, it is essential that individuals at risk of such diseases are connected to evidence-based health information. Therefore, there is a need for strategies that […]

Développement de méthodes de criblage haut-débit par l’utilisation de cocktails d’aptazymes pour une sélection multi-paramétrée de clones ou souches microbiennes

Les aptazymes sont des molécules d’ADN ou ARN capables de prendre des conformations très particulières afin d’interagir spécifiquement avec des cibles moléculaires précises, de la même manière qu’un anticorps interagit avec son antigène. Additionnellement à ceci, les aptazymes sont capables, subséquemment à la reconnaissance de leur cible, de réguler l’expression de gènes. Avec ces puissants […]

Implementation of Tensor Neural Networks

Tensor networks are a quantum inspired technique that provide useful mechanisms for solving hard problems, usually in the realm of quantum mechanics and many-body systems, through the manipulation and operation of tensors. The main challenge underlying this project is the productionalization of a quantum-inspired deep learning algorithm which currently exists as a proof of concept […]

Field Assessment of Infrastructure Carrying Capacity

Over the last five years, it has become possible to estimate the capacity of existing, sometimes damaged, utilities and other infrastructure systems to support the local population in war zones. This estimation currently relies on satellite data to provide a basic map of what infrastructure is where. However, it is often difficult o get access […]

Purification and Trapping of Biohydrogen

Solarvest has developed a cutting-edge technology that enables algae to produce hydrogen in a continuous cycle in a single vessel. The hydrogen is released along with carbon dioxide and water, and intermittently the algae needs to be permitted to carry out photosynthesis, which generates oxygen. This project entails the construction, installation and testing of a […]

Automated curation of credible online health information

Eight out of 10 people use the web to find health information, so online health information for the public must be reliable and trustworthy. The“Infodemic” of misinformation (which includes disinformation), is a term coined by the World Health Organization to show the magnitude of the problem and its ‘contagion’, that makes it difficult for the […]

Development of a Multi-User XR-based Ground Control Station

In this project, we would like to develop an enhanced Multi-User Extended Reality Ground Control Station (MXR-GCS) to control an aerial vehicle using a virtual/actual controller defined within the virtual environment. Such an advanced portable MXR-GCS system is important to lower pilot workload and increase situational awareness. In the first place, a virtual ground control […]
