Joint optimization of transmit beamforming and base station cache allocation in multi-cell C-RAN
(2021-11-01)
Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with wireless backhaul has been considered as a possible solution for small cell deployment. Limited capacity of wireless backhaul encourages people to equip the base stations (BSs) with ...
A novel spatiotemporal framework for efficient traffic prediction and visualization
(2021-12-01)
This thesis proposes an efficient traffic prediction framework to estimate congestion at intersections depending on neighboring road links. The framework encompasses three major components, data extraction, Bayesian Linear ...
Health and safety enhancement of lithium-ion batteries for fast-charging
(2021-08-01)
With the ever-increasing demand for battery electric vehicles, the expectation of safety, range, and fast charging has become a major focus for industry players and researchers. The research presented herein sought to ...
Changes in cannabis consumption behaviors in relation to policy and public health developments and respiratory health of emerging adults in Canada
(2021-07-01)
Cannabis use appears to be more common among emerging adults (EA) compared to other age groups in Canada. Substance use or misuse peaks during emerging adulthood and may be influenced by political and public health deviations. ...
Physiological responses to pedal-assist e-bike use in older adults
(2021-12-01)
Pedal-assist electric bicycles (pedelecs) have been found to elicit moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in younger adults, however, it is unknown if pedelec riding elicits MVPA in older adults or if ...
A systematic review of the literature examining the use and application of robots and artificial intelligence for assisted living for persons living with dementia
(2021)
Introduction: This review aims to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic technologies can enhance quality of life (QOL) outcomes in persons living with dementia (PLD).
Methods: A systematic literature search ...
Deep learning for islanding detection of grid-connected photovoltaic systems
(2021-01-01)
Over the past decade, the integration of renewable-based distribution energy resources within the smart distribution system has been steadily growing. Despite the numerous advantages of integrating these renewable energy ...
The social determinants of health related to the increased prevalence and risk of diabetes among South Asians in Canada
(2021-11-01)
There continues to be a high prevalence and risk for diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes (T2D) among South Asians in Canada compared to the general population. Majority of current research continues to take biomedical and ...
Monolayer terpyridyl metal complexes for high-efficiency electrochromic materials
(2021-08-01)
Electrochromic materials (ECMs) can change their color with changes of applied electrochemical potential. Currently, the use of ECMs in the industry is limited to mainly inorganic metal oxides, conjugated conducting polymers, ...
Towards molecular reconstruction in Coulomb explosion imaging
(2021-02-01)
The interaction of a fast laser with molecules at the femtosecond time scale, leads to the latter losing most of its valence electrons and become positively charged. The molecule which was initially in an equilibrium state, ...
