Malgré la présence de ressources de soutien dans les organismes sportifs, les recherches effectuées auprès d’athlètes de haut niveau suggèrent la présence de barrières au recours aux services. L’objectif de cette recherche est d’étudier la prévalence et la prise en charge de la santé mentale des athlètes en développement selon l’environnement sportif afin de pouvoir […]

Ce projet va analyser la gouvernance démocratique (GD) des organisations d’économie sociale (OES) au Québec en vue d’illustrer une diversité de situations où cette pratique incarne la spécificité des OES mais aussi de leur complexité. Au Québec, l’économie sociale regroupe plus de 11200 coopératives, mutuelles et associations à but non lucratif, actives dans tous les […]

The Etobicoke Creek watershed is heavily urbanized with significant water quality issues. As part of the development of a watershed plan, scenario analysis allows for modelling different future land use and climate conditions to understand how watershed conditions will change. The purpose of this research is to establish and utilize an appropriate water quality model […]

Emerald ash borer (EAB) is an invasive insect from Asia that was detected in Ontario in 2002 and has caused severe declines in ash trees. EAB is able to kill a healthy ash tree in 3-4 years and has caused declines of up to 99% in some areas 8-10 years after arriving. Although there is […]

The proposed research will take place in the City of Mississauga. A recent study by Gro?mann et al. concluded that heavy levels of tree pruning leads to an increased number of microhabitats, compared to trees pruned less often (2020). These trees are often called ‘veteran trees’ in North America, and are very important for urban […]

The critically endangered North Atlantic Right Whale resides in waters with busy shipping lanes in the Bay of Fundy and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where incidents of ship strikes have proven to be a primary cause of whale death, resulting in their numbers dwindling to less than 400. Though the implementation of speed limits […]

BC’s rainbow trout fishery consists of over 800 lakes, fished by hundreds of thousands of anglers across the province. It provides some of Canada’s best fishing, but there are key processes occurring that fishery managers can not account for with current approaches. Researchers and managers have created a new management tool that would allow decision […]

We are bringing together modern techniques in Bayesian machine learning to optimize process parameters for a state-of-the-art semiconductor fabrication process. The challenge is that while the process contains complex underlying dynamics and some degree of stochasticity, there are a large number of process parameters and a small number of samples to use for model training […]

Jumio is constantly facing fraudulent attacks of repeated nature when a series of similar images with minor changes are submitted. To be able to respond effectively it is necessary to be able to learn previously seen fraudulent data. At the same time we have to deal with very sensitive private data and therefore it’s becoming […]

Searching for parking has many terrible impacts, such as wasted time, fuel, and emissions, overpaying for parking etc. To ease the pain of parking, the goal of this project is to develop a method of collecting information from multiple sources (crowd-sourced information from parkers, active paid session information from managers/parking enforcement, and availability information from […]

La demande pour les produits de consommation sans médicament est en croissance constante. Cependant, certaines infections communes chez le poulet de chair affectent la santé et la production, exigeant l’utilisation d’alternatives aux médicaments. Parmi ces infections communes, la coccidiose aviaire engendre des pertes économiques considérables pour les producteurs. Pour l’instant, les alternatives efficaces aux anticoccidiens […]
