Understanding the role of aquatic plants in stormwater management pond performance in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
(2020-05-01)
Stormwater Management Ponds (SMPs) are engineered to receive, store, and treat stormwater runoff before it enters receiving waters in urbanizing landscapes. While these systems are not considered natural, they are typically ...
Radiation response and optical characterization of carbon based thin-films prepared by saddle field plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition
(2020-09-01)
Carbon based thin-film materials have been attracting a lot of attention in many research fields due to their unique material properties. Detection of ionizing radiation is an important application that carbon and diamond ...
JoVA-hinge: joint variational autoencoders for personalized recommendation with implicit feedback
(2020-12-01)
Recently, Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) have shown remarkable performance in collaborative filtering (CF) with implicit feedback. These existing recommendation models learn user representations to reconstruct or predict ...
An in-depth analysis of guesser behavior
(2020-11-01)
We propose a methodology to perform an in-depth analysis on different password guessers and their guessing abilities. We devise new metrics and statistics that directly compare the types of passwords each guesser generates, ...
Polymorphic Adversarial DDoS attack on IDS using GAN
(2020-12-01)
IDS are essential components in preventing malicious traffic from penetrating networks. IDS have been rapidly enhancing their detection ability using ML algorithms. As a result, attackers look for new methods to evade the ...
Comparative analysis of deep learning and graph cut algorithms for cell image segmentation
(2020-08-01)
Image segmentation is a commonly used technique in digital image processing with many applications in the area of computer vision and medical image analysis. The goal of image segmentation is to partition an image into ...
Group representation learning for group recommendation
(2021-01-01)
Group recommender systems facilitate group decision making for a set of individuals (e.g., a group of friends, a team, a corporation, etc.). Existing group recommendation methods mostly learn group members' individual ...
Evolutionary multi-objective design of autoencoder for compact representation of histopathology images
(2021-08-01)
Deep learning can cope with complex tasks; however, it suffers from the crucial problem of high dimensionality which makes it intractable to learn the patterns and classify the data. Importantly, having a fixed model cannot ...
Echo: reconstructing gameplay sessions for analysis
(2021-04-01)
We created Echo, a tool designed to help bridge the gap between game analytics and video footage analysis. Echo reconstructs gameplay sessions from recorded data and presents them with their original graphics. A comparative ...
Material properties and mechanical behaviour of large-scale additively manufactured multi-layered steels
(2020-03-01)
Metal Big Area Additive Manufacturing is an additive manufacturing technique based on gas metal arc welding. The systems’ dual nozzle design prints two steels simultaneously; in this study, the test samples are made from ...
