Enhancing Air Traffic Control Communication: Integrating AI and Visual Aids to Improve Pilot Performance and Safety

This project aims to improve communication between pilots and air traffic control (ATC) by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and visual aids with traditional voice communication. By using AI to generate real-time visual cues (like text and icons), we hope to reduce misunderstandings and improve situational awareness for pilots. This will help make flying safer and more efficient. The project will benefit the participating institutions by advancing research in AI and communication technologies, enhancing pilot training programs, and fostering international collaboration.

Étude du comportement en flambement des cornières en carton

Les cornières en carton sont des produits d’emballage. L’entreprise Abzac et l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières travaillent conjointement à rendre ces produits plus écoresponsables et à développer des essais pour évaluer leur performance. La norme actuelle pour évaluer les cornières en compression présente une lacune majeure en négligeant le flambement, sous-estimant ainsi la performance réelle des cornières. Afin de remédier à ce problème, le comportement en flambement des cornières en carton sera étudié par des méthodes analytiques, numériques et expérimentales. Une compréhension approfondie permettra de restreindre le flambement lors des essais de compression, favorisant une évaluation précise. Cette approche facilitera la sélection d’une géométrie adaptée, réduisant les risques liés à l’utilisation de cornières sous ou surdimensionnées pour des applications spécifiques.

Determination of appropriate time of start of follow-up to ascertain depressive disorder outcomes in youths and adolescents of pregnant people with or without depressive disorders

Prevalence of major depressive disorders have been on the rise over the last few decades. Depression is an important public health problem that touch pregnant people. Depression during pregnancy has been associated with many negative outcomes, such as cognitive impairment and childhood psychopathology in the offspring. Many pregnant women take antidepressants, such as Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, which cross the placenta into the foetus or are present in milk while breastfeeding. Few studies focused on the long-term effect of SSRI. One of the main limitations is the unavailability of large databases with long enough follow-up time in order to detect these effects. In fact, it is unclear when the time of the follow-up should start. This project aims to address these limitations using large databases with long follow-ups in order to evaluate the association between depression and SSRIs use in pregnancy and children/adolescents’ depression. This project aims to fill in the gaps present in the literature due to methodological constraints through an international collaboration. The objective is to compare results between the Danish and Quebecois populations, to evaluate how the effect of the exposure varies across populations, databases, and to obtain robust conclusions.

Illégalismes et production urbaine aux Philippines

Le projet de doctorat porte sur les liens entre illégalité et développement urbain aux Philippines. De manière à mener le terrain adéquatement aux Philippines (à l’hiver 2025), une session de recherche à Turin en Italie sera entreprise durant l’automne 2024. Cette session a pour but de me former aux sujets reliant illégalité et ville que ce soit d’un point de vue théorique ou méthodologique. Plus encore, cette session me permettra de rencontrer divers experts en la matière ainsi que de m’aider à rédiger les premières parties de la thèse de doctorat.

Consistent Colourings of Polytopes Facets

The project I will be working on involves colouring the faces or facets of regular symmetric polytopes (generalizations of polygons and polyhedrons) and how colourings change under automorphism transformations like reflections and rotations. I intend to develop as comprehensive an understand as possible of these colourings

Urban Heat Island Investigation: An Extreme Gradient Boosting Approach to Unravelling Nexus Between Satellite Surface Temperature and Ground-Level Ambient Air Temperature

The proposed research project focuses on studying the urban heat island effect, which is a phenomenon where urban areas experience higher temperatures in urban areas than their surroundings. This effect can impact public health, energy usage, and urban planning. The research will use advanced analysis techniques to understand how different factors like building characteristics and vegetation type influence temperature variations in cities. Specifically, the project will be conducted in Calgary, utilizing its diverse urban features as a case study. The expected benefits for the partner organization, which includes the City of Calgary, involve gaining valuable insights that can help in developing strategies to manage heat effectively within the city. This could lead to better urban planning and improved public health by mitigating the effects of excessive heat. Additionally, the research aims to create a model that can be applied to other cities, which means the findings could have a broader impact beyond just Calgary.
