The forest industry is going through a transformation worldwide. Competitive limitations faced by companies starting with the newsprint demand decline have required process modernization and portfolio diversification. As a result, the forest biorefinery emerged – facilities for the production of biofuels, biochemicals, and biomaterials. The forest sector has adopted the biorefinery concept globally because it […]

Cancer develops from the accumulation of mutations in key genes, which drive disease progression in individual patients. Currently, cancer genomic analysis results in the reporting of dozens to hundreds of mutations and other genomic alterations, without providing any indication of which genes are the most functional, and relevant for the survival of the cancer cell. […]

Due to the rapid growth of consumer grade devices and corresponding application market, the incorporation of vision capabilities into embedded systems has gained significant attention from researchers lately. Similarly to the human visual system, embedded computer vision systems analyze and extract information from visual content in a wide variety of products. Face recognition has been […]

The Laurentian Great Lakes and many Canadian inland waters have experienced a resurgence of cyanobacteria-dominated harmful algal blooms (cHABs), which negatively impact recreational uses, aesthetics, taste and odor in drinking water. The presence of toxins can also have dire repercussions on aquatic wildlife and human health. The factors that influence the occurrence and magnitude of […]
