Rapid urban growth challenges cities with rising populations, infrastructure demands, and environmental sustainability. Traditional urban planning, based on outdated models and fragmented data, struggles to address these complexities. Digital Twin (DT) technology offers a solution by creating dynamic virtual models of real-world environments using real-time data. By integrating sources like geographic information systems (GIS), sensors, […]

This project explores the challenges women entrepreneurs face when starting and growing their businesses, focusing on structural barriers such as access to funding, networking opportunities, and business support. By identifying practical solutions and best practices, the research will provide valuable insights to help women succeed in entrepreneurship. Expertise Hub Cooperative (EHC) will benefit from this […]

Layer 6 is a machine learning research and engineering company owned by The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Most of TD’s transactional data is stored in relational database management systems in the form of tabular datasets, structured as rows and columns. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized the handling of unstructured data (such as text, audio, and […]

The parental rights movement, which gained traction in the 1930s (largely in reaction to child labour reforms), has long resisted progressive reform. By the 1990s, the movement found renewed momentum amid heated debates over charter schools, further embedding the rhetoric of government overreach, privatization, and ethnonationalism into its public messaging4. Although considerable scholarship was produced […]

Ce projet vise à améliorer notre compréhension des interactions océan-atmosphère dans le golfe et l’estuaire du Saint-Laurent, afin de mieux comprendre, représenter, simuler et s’adapter aux conditions changeantes de l’atmosphère et des océans influençant le climat québécois. Une grande partie du climat du Québec est fortement affectée par les océans qui l’entourent, rendant essentielle la […]

Mastercard works with improving and securing payments of millions of cardholders and merchants. One of the primary objectives of Mastercard’s work is to detect and prevent fraudulent payments. There are several ways of committing such fraud, often such fraud can happen due to vulnerability of the merchant to such fraudulent threats and several other underlying […]

Le projet de recherche vise à exploiter la puissance des unités de traitement graphique (GPU) pour accélérer les simulations des transitoires électromagnétiques (Electromagnetic Transients : EMT) dans les réseaux électriques. Le projet comporte deux volets complémentaires. Dans le premier volet, l’accent est mis sur le développement de simulations EMT hautement performantes sur GPU. Nous explorons […]

Climate change is affecting agriculture in Canada in varied and complex ways. While northern areas may experience more favourable conditions for commodity crops, other regions face challenges such as increased temperature variability and extreme weather. Emerging agricultural technologies, including digital agriculture tools, controlled environment agriculture, and advances in agri-genomics, present promising solutions to enhance resilience […]

Ce projet vise à développer un outil pour aider les décideurs à suivre l’état de l’économie circulaire (ÉC) dans la région de Sorel-Tracy, au Québec. L’ÉC est un modèle économique qui cherche à réduire l’extraction de ressources, à optimiser leur usage, tout en minimisant leur impact sur l’environnement. Aujourd’hui, il existe peu d’outils pour mesurer […]

Titanium alloys are used to manufacture aerospace components that require high strength at high operating temperatures such as fan blades, heat shields and jet engine exhaust cones. Parts that have complex geometries are commonly formed at high temperature (around 900°C) so as to achieve maximum ductility during the forming process. By applying a small oscillating […]

This project aims to understand the impact of energy development activities on birdlife and support effective conservation measures. Alberta’s boreal forest plays a crucial role, serving as both a unique ecosystem for millions of breeding birds and a key resource for the oil and gas industry. By analyzing a decade of bird banding data, the […]

Target 2035 is an ambitious goal supported by the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) to develop pharmacological modulators of all proteins encoded within the human genome by the year 2035. These compounds, referred to as chemical probes, are made available to the public and enables researchers to investigate biological processes in a more effective manner. The […]
