This project focuses on designing and developing solar-powered HVAC systems optimized for tropical climates. The objective is to integrate renewable energy into building energy systems, improving energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions. By leveraging advanced modeling tools and real-world data from Vietnam, the research aims to create scalable solutions that support sustainable urban development.

This internship supports the creation of a comprehensive 80-100 page guide titled “Playing with Nostalgia” by a PhD student intern working in the field of game studies and sociology. The guide has one question: how can we use videogames to inspire people to feel nostalgic for, and thus work to preserve, the future? Research suggests […]

In this project, the intern student is expected to develop develop a data collection tool that can collect data traffic from IoT devices and label them accordingly. The intern student will then use the tool to collect and label traffic from over 100 IoT devices.

The features of optical fibers and the fascinating properties of nanomaterials can be combined to result in an attractive new platform for chemical sensing. Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP) has distinct advantages for the assembly of chemoresistive gas sensors compared to their traditional synthesis methods. Modern photonic sensing devices such as tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) […]

Popular content-driven websites like YouTube, Vimeo and Soundcloud receive a large amount of content annually and are visited by billions of users world-wide. However, the majority of the content on these sites has little to no structure. For example, many videos on YouTube are only found in the personal playlists and have virtually no user […]

Patients referred for thyroid nodule (TN) assessment will be invited to participate in the study. Patients will undergo screening using infrared thermography (IT) and ultrasound (US) with needle insertion. Neck IT thermograms will be captured using the FLIR TS865 for all patients’ frontal and lateral norms. With the IT camera software, the regions of interest […]

The growing demand for high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud applications is pushing traditional semiconductor technologies to their limits. This project advances silicon photonics, which uses light for faster, more efficient, and scalable data transmission, making it critical for next-generation computing and communication systems. Focusing on hybrid quantum light sources and nonlinear optical […]

Près de 98 % de l’énergie électrique québécoise provient de l’hydro-électricité, une source d’énergie propre et renouvelable. Il apparaît donc important d’utiliser au mieux cette énergie. Dans cette optique, le Québec devrait favoriser l’utilisation de pompes à chaleur qui possèdent des performances supérieures à celles des plinthes électriques. Leurs performances sont toutefois affectées à mesure […]

This project explores the emotional and cultural dynamics of artificial intelligence (AI) development across four global sites—Canada, the UK, India, and the US—by examining how emotions shape decision-making, productivity, and well-being within distributed teams. Focusing on the workplace processes of a leading transnational AI firm, the research addresses critical industry challenges in managing intercultural collaboration […]

Le projet de recherche Ergocycle S2M vise à créer une version embarquée de l’Ergocycle S2M, un dispositif destiné à la rééducation des personnes à mobilité réduite. Ce système inclut un vélo à bras instrumenté et utilise la stimulation électrique fonctionnelle, qui envoie des impulsions électriques pour activer les muscles paralysés ou faibles, facilitant ainsi le […]

L’objectif de cette recherche est de développer un modèle capable d’analyser automatiquement les vidéos d’angiographies coronaires pour générer un rapport textuel contenant la gravité des sténoses ainsi que la fonction du ventricule gauche et du ventricule droit (VG / VD). Ce modèle repose sur l’intégration d’un encodeur vidéo pour extraire des caractéristiques spatio-temporelles, un tokenizer […]

The seafaring industry, responsible for transporting over 90% of the world’s goods, faces critical issues with organized money laundering and human trafficking. The International Labor Organization estimates that 24.9 million people are victims of human trafficking, many of whom are trafficked via maritime routes. Additionally, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) reports that […]
