Scalable subgraph representation learning through simplification
(2023-06-01)
Link prediction on graphs is a fundamental problem. Subgraph representation learning approaches (SGRLs), by transforming link prediction to graph classification on the subgraphs around the links, have achieved state-of-the-art ...
Magic Pen: automatic pen-mode switching for document annotation
(2022-08-01)
Traditional digital pen interfaces use menu buttons to change pen modes, resulting in time and cognitive load spent on round-trips and potential errors from tapping small mode selection buttons. This thesis presents Magic ...
Multi-scale local explanation approach for image analysis using model-agnostic explainable artificial intelligence (XAI)
(2022-08-01)
The recent success of deep neural networks has generated a remarkable growth in Artificial Intelligence (AI) research, and it received much interest over the past few years. However, one of the main challenges for the broad ...
Single magnetic resonance image super-resolution using generative adversarial network
(2022-08-01)
Super-Resolution is the process of converting given low-resolution images into corresponding high-resolution ones. The resolution enhancement process applied to medical images can potentially improve diagnostic accuracy ...
Simulation and modelling to develop a nanopore-based device for ricin detection
(2022-08-01)
Nanopore-based protein detection represents an exciting opportunity to develop ultrasensitive diagnostic devices that are both portable and affordable. Aptamer-encoded nanopores detect target molecules by binding to them ...
Development of upper limb customized non- isomorphic VR interact ions for reaching, grabbing, and placing objects
(2022-08-01)
Virtual Reality (VR) is becoming adopted in education, training, and entertainment due to its growing affordability. The variability of user preferences and physical capabilities in VR requires configurable settings in ...
Investigating proteomic profiles of skin mucus and blood plasma of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exposed to low concentrations of waterborne nickel
(2022-08-01)
The Ontario Ring of Fire located in the James Bay Lowlands is a nickel rich ore with ongoing mining proposals. This raises the possibility of nickel contamination in one of Ontario’s most precious freshwater regions and ...
Aiding the experts: how artificial intelligence can augment expert evaluation with PathOS+
(2022-07-01)
Within games user research (GUR) predictive methods like expert evaluation are good for getting easy insights on a game in development but may not accurately reflect the player experience. On the other hand, experimental ...
An optimization-based approach to image fusion using structural similarity
(2023-05-01)
This thesis examines a framework for solving optimization problems involving structural similarity index measure Mean. Image fusion involves combining multiple images to preserve their most desirable characteristics. The ...
Error estimation for single-image human body mesh reconstruction
(2023-05-01)
Human pose and shape estimation methods continue to suffer in situations where one or more parts of the body are occluded. More importantly, these methods cannot express when their predicted pose is incorrect. This has ...
