Composing without forgetting

In this project, we propose a modular continual learning approach to face the problem of catastrophic forgetting and transfer in learning from evolving task distributions. Concretely, we propose a model that learns how to select most relevant modules based on a local decision rule for a given task to form a deep learning model for […]

Developpement d’un modele de classification probabiliste pour la cartographie du couvert nival dans les bassins versants d’Hydro-Quebec a l’aide des donnees de micro-ondes passives

Chaque jour, des decisions doivent etre prises quant a la quantite d’hydroelectricite produite au Quebec. Ces decisions reposent sur la prevision des apports en eau dans les bassins versants produite a l’aide de modeles hydrologiques. Ces modeles, qui transforment les precipitations en debits, prennent en compte plusieurs facteurs, dont notamment la presence ou l’absence de […]

Cultural Diversity and the Persistence of the BIPOC Community in the Chemical Sciences

The representation of the Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) community decreases at higher levels of education/academia. This phenomenon is proverbially referred to as the ‘leaky pipeline’ and has been studied extensively with various populations in multiple disciplines. However, despite scholars identifying some key factors that contribute to the persistence of the BIPOC community […]

Understanding Gene Model Maps

Researchers are often tasked with finding related works in their respective field, including journal entries and images that represent the work contributed, which allows researchers to summarize and expand previous contributions. Biological researchers often convey their contributions through visual illustrations, also considered gene model maps. These gene model maps are used to represent how contributions […]

Développement de nouveaux algorithms pour accroître la precision, la robustesse et la reproductibilité d’instruments intelligents en réponse aux exigence de l’industrie

Le monitoring en temps réel des bioprocédés permet d’augmenter les performances et de réduire les pertes. La principale difficulté provient de la quantité limitée d’information accessible en temps réel et des phénomènes complexes et fortement non-linéaires en présence. Ainsi, les algorithmes statistiques conventionnels ne permettent pas d’interpréter adéquatement et avec la précision requise en pharmaceutique […]

Anomaly Detection in Highly Noisy Signals from Electrical Rotating Machines

Equipment failure is the primary source of unplanned downtime in industries working with rotating electrical machines. Fault detection at the early stages is an essential solution for reducing this downtime. Condition monitoring of machinery is the process of capturing and monitoring parameters such as vibrations to identify a developing fault. This project uses the data […]

Modeling and optimization for designing smart freight platform

This research is motivated by the need to coordinate matching and pricing decisions in resource sharing platforms. In general, matching decisions can be seen from different standpoints of shippers, carriers, and the platform. We are particularly interested in investigating the matching problem considering all standpoints simultaneously, which has not received much attention in the literature […]
