Small teams of mobile robots provide nowadays the ability to assist wireless sensor networks in many threatening scenarios that unexpectedly arise during their operational lifetime. The perceived risk or vulnerability that the network is exposed to triggers an immediate, corporate action from the robotic agents (actuators). We focus on a sort of robots which are […]

To evaluate the content of free texts is a challenging task for human. Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) can be used to automate this process. The main idea behind the LSA technology is to extract the close relationship between the meaning of a text and the words that are present in that text. ShirWin Knowledge and […]

  The purpose of the project is to provide the partner with a detailed understanding of a strategy to  set payout profiles within a model where the expected payout of the game is tied to the level of skill reached in the game. Additionally, the project will create a strategy for viral marketing of the […]

Develop a software module for real-time data acquisition, visualization and analysis of data extracted during real time 3D physical simulation allowing to perform regression testing comparison of different Vortex versions, to find differences in system parameterization of similar mechanical system or to compare results from other simulation platform like Matlab. The result of the project […]

  Skin-tone detection has received considerable attention in recent years and applied in wide range of image processing and computer vision applications. The objective of this research project is to develop a real-time skin-tone detection solution optimized for consumer devices, allows for a deliverance of high detection performance at minimal computational costs. The proposed solution […]

  In this research, we propose a framework for performance management in virtual organizations (VOs) equipped with service oriented architecture (SOA). This framework enables networks of organizations to evaluate and manage their collaboration performance and also to align and coordinate their various goals and objectives. Distributed management of VO will be enhanced to reduce the […]

  The intern and organizational partner are looking for unique and interesting ways of using mobile devices to help authenticate users and methods of cooperation between a mobile device and another device, a PC for example. The intern will research and implement different authentication techniques on mobile devices. Additionally, it is prudent to study and […]

This research project involves the design and implementation of an anxiety management application for transmission on the iPhone. The application employs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) methodology and is designed for the 16 to 25 year old demographic. Normally used in face to face therapeutic interactions, the use of a mobile application is unique in that […]

  This project pertains to the modeling, detection, and monitoring of crises in geopolitical dynamic environments. As risks are inherent to crises, we need tools to cope with the uncertainty factors involved in these situations. The objective of this project is to conduct research activities to support the understanding of crisis situations and to model […]

  Text mining is the process of automatically extracting knowledge from unstructured, natural language documents. It aims to support users in dealing with large amount of textual information. Examples for specific text mining tasks are entity detection, summarization, and opinion mining. Due to the complexity and ambiguity of natural language, this analysis is broken down […]

  This project will explore the control of sound transformations applied to complex sounds such as: explosions with debris, glass breaking, various object impacts and bounces, etc. These complex sounds will be decomposed into multiple individual collisions components. Based on a database of simple collisions gathered from the analysis of one or several complex impact […]

  The project aims to establish new design methods and digital signal processing techniques allowing robust and efficient universal navigation and communication equipment in the fields of aeronautics and aerospace. New avionic standards are under study and strong arguments exist for the adoption of software defined radios at this point of time. The project anticipates […]
