In this project, we will explore the new ways to design and implement a Low-Code Software Development platform that is easy to use, requires minimum software knowledge, is business logic oriented, and robust to dependency change. Specifically, we provide functional templates with detailed configuration flexibility to cover the high frequency requirements from the expected business […]

York University and Jazz Pharmaceuticals are undertaking a project to accelerate development of their Leukemia drug candidate. The project will take advantage of unique technologies developed at York by Drs. Wilson and Krylov, Millisecond Hydrogen Deuterium eXchange (msHDX) mass spectrometry and Kinetic Capillary Electrophoresis (KCE), to provide a high-detail picture of Jazz Pharmaceutical’s candidate, including […]

Adversarial perturbation of all the image pixels is computationally intensive and may not be realized in practice. In contrast, an adversarial patch attack where an adversary can choose to perturb a specific subset of pixels in an image, is more practical in fooling a trained image classifier or hiding a person from an object-detection model. […]

A low oxygen level can be life-threatening if not identified early. Many lung diseases, including the COVID-19 virus, can lead to oxygen deficiency. Currently, only a contact biomedical device is capable of measuring oxygen levels in the human body. This makes the measurement limited to people who can wear the device. Our goal is to […]

A new process to create greenhouse glazing using 3D Printing is prototyped and tested. Using the principle of layer height fusion of plastic, new glazing will be created to provide shading and diffused light. The 3D Printed glazing will also be changed through the 3D Printer to change the amount of shading and diffused light, […]

Canada is having a youth unemployment crisis that has only worsened post-COVID. At the same time, an untapped pool of young, diverse talent exists to fill entry-level positions. However, difficulties arise when trying to match youth with employers. In particular, youth have indicated that job postings can be unfamiliar or intimidating and ask for unrealistic […]

Cable systems play an important role in many large scale simulation applications. Examples include marine systems, mining machinery, and cranes. The high fidelity and efficient modelling and simulation of these systems can enhance the applications and usability dynamic modelling environments. In this project we particularly target to develop models and efficient algorithms based on nonlinear […]

In this project, a group of scholars in computer science and business proposes using state-of-the-art machine learning methods for secondary-data-based persona construction and preference prediction. Specifically, the researchers will use recent data dimension reduction methods to process the raw data, use new machine learning models to achieve better learning results, and use self-supervised technology and […]

Recent years have seen a wealth of clinical evidence accumulate in favor of the radiomics hypothesis, wherein standard-issue oncological medical images, such as CTs, PET-CTs and MRIs, exhibit reliable fingerprints of cancer tumor genetic makeup, enabling predictions of patient prognosis, treatment resistance and side effects to be made directly from an analysis of imaging data. […]

The goal of the project is to contribute to knowledge generation about mental health and addiction in rural Ontario by exploring the impacts of COVID-19 on the supply (employees) and demand (employers) of the labour market. In partnership with Gateway Rural Health this project will examine Huron and Perth Counties as case studies to explore […]

The general objective of the proposed activity is to increase the future productivity of Burrard Inlet and the contribution of seafood to the diet of Tsleil-Waututh Nation (TWN) members in support of the TWN Cumulative Effects Monitoring Initiative. Specifically, we propose to identify the primary environmental drivers of clam productivity and species composition in Burrard […]

La pollution de l’environnement par les hydrocarbures pétroliers (HP) devient une problématique majeure. Plusieurs traitements chimiques, thermiques, biologiques, etc. des eaux et sols contaminés aux HP sont utilisés, in situ ou par excavation. Cependant, pour les applications in situ, les traitements biologiques paraissent comme une meilleure solution, car ils sont plus écologiques et répondent aux […]
