Raman spectroscopy is a compound identification technique that can be used for real-time identification of cancerous tissues during surgery. The development and clinical translation of an intraoperative surgical-guidance instrument based on this technique is the main objective of ODS Medical, a Canadian startup. However, Raman signals are intrinsically very weak thereby requiring the measurements to […]

We are in the process of creating and growing a team of researchers, expert in the field of machine learning and data-mining. Ultimately, our aim is to create solutions to eliminate the need to manually define personalization strategies. We are in the process of signing partnership agreements with retailers capable of collecting large-scale datasets of […]

The objective of this proposed project is to develop a prototype numerical simulation software that can simulate the physical processes inside semiconductor lasers and exchange information with a simplified compact model. The combination of these two models can better balance the trade-off between accuracy and simulation performance. The resulting integration will be suitable for studying […]

The objective of this project is to develop an analytics platform that will give us an understanding of sensory data in predicting trends and relationships between sales and wine sensory data. The wine sensory data we will use in this project is entered by reviewers and consumers rating various attributes such as Aroma, Appearance and […]

La première expérience de jeu (les premières 60 à 90 minutes) est déterminante, car c’est durant cette période que le joueur décide s’il aime le jeu, s’il désire continuer à jouer, et s’il peut le maîtriser. Relativement à l’apprentissage du jeu, le jeu propose un tutoriel visant à habileté le joueur au regard des principales […]

Canoe kayak athletes use difficult body movements to move their boats at fast speeds. It has been hard to measure body movements that are needed to win paddling races in the past. Wearable devices are now able to measure athlete’s body movements when they are paddling. The goal of this research is to learn new […]

A laser-optics vehicle profiling system will be designed and developed in this project. The image of a laser line projected onto the surface of a vehicle from a vantage point will be used to make metric measurements on the vehicle and to develop a 3D model of it. It is conjectured that this setup would […]

Les travailleurs qui ne sont pas dans un véhicule mais directement sur la chaussée constituent un sous-groupe plus à risque lorsqu’il est question d’accident routier au travail (ART). Nous proposons d’étudier les relations entre les environnements de travail (dans la rue), le risque d’accident routier et les niveaux de stress que les travailleurs piétons expérimentent […]

The main objective of this project is using deep learning algorithm to enhance the current state of the art tooth wear monitoring system used in mining shovels. Unlike the current approach, the proposed deep learning method operates by building a model from input images in order to make data-driven predictions. We use deep learning approach […]

The goal of this proposal is to make the most advantage of the recently developed technique of Frequency domain Optical Parametric Amplification (FOPA) by pushing this technology to unprecedented levels. The IP has been protected by the group of prof. François Légaré from INRS_EMT. The main inventor, Bruno Schmidt, has founded few-cycle Inc. to commercialize […]

Les principaux défis de la cybersécurité sont la protection des données sensibles, des renseignements disponibles sur Internet, et la lutte contre les actions de piratage numérique. Pour une banque coopérative comme le Mouvement Desjardins, le risque lié à la cybersécurité est important, puisqu’il peut remettre en cause la relation de service basée sur la confiance […]

We are all well aware of the spectacular improvement in life-expectancy around the world since the 1990’s. While most people would agree that living longer is a good thing, it nonetheless increases the risk of having people outlive their assets so that they become forced to accept lower standards of living in old age. People […]
