We are an interdisciplinary initiative at Queen’s University focused on combining Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Human Machine Interaction to create future intelligent systems and robotic machines that enhance human productivity, safety, performance, and quality of life.
Congratulations goes to researchers Eduardo Gasca Cervantes and Dr. Wai-Yip Geoffrey Chan on receiving best paper at the IEEE Canadian Conference of electrical and Computer Engineering (CCECE) Conference 2021. Their paper LIME-Enabled Investigation of Convolutional Neural Network Performances in Covid-19 Chest X-Ray Detection was selected as the best paper, among 84 accepted.
As a Major in the Canadian Armed Forces, Dr. Paul Hungler oversaw the delivery of Augmented (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) training for military personnel. Now as an Assistant Professor in Chemical Engineering and Ingenuity Labs, he’s hoping that VR/AR can similarly revolutionize the way we educate future generations of engineers. “Getting access to things …
Dr. Ali Etemad, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and PhD candidate Pritam Sarkar created a machine-learning model that could give cheap wearable tech the ability to measure a user’s cardiovascular health. The technology is available for licensing through the Queen’s Partnerships and Innovation office. For more information about Dr. …
We are very proud to announce Xiaoyu Yang as one of the recipients of the Borealis AI 2021 Fellow. Xiaoyu is a PhD candidate working with researcher, Dr. Xiaodan Zhu, in the area of Natural language reasoning and incorporating external knowledge into neural networks. The Borealis AI Fellowship recipients, supported by Canada’s top researchers and …
Walking just might get easier thanks to researchers at Queen’s University. They’ve designed an exoskeleton prototype that’s meant to help people walk farther, while using less energy. This device is a subject of a new study in the world-leading academic journal, “Science.” Click to read Article Dr. Michael Shepertycky and Dr. Qingguo Li, two minds …
A technological environment is a built environment. Dr. Josh Woods is rethinking how we can sense and measure how buildings “feel” – and reinvent how we relate to the structures we live and work in. He’s a faculty member in our Civil Engineering department; using AI and new ways of measuring materials, his work will …
Better language algorithms mean better AI and better machines. Dr. Xiaodan Zhu is at the forefront of this movement. As announced in January 2021, the Mitchell Professors are five engineering researchers, funded by a gift from Bruce Mitchell, Sc’68, DSc’20, to explore the frontiers of how humanity and machines coexist. The Mitchell Professors reside in …
Integrating nature and robotics, from slithering to swarms. Dr. Matt Robertson is the Mitchell Professor reinventing robots via the natural world. As announced in January 2021, the Mitchell Professors are five engineering researchers, funded by a gift from Bruce Mitchell, Sc’68, DSc’20, to explore the frontiers of how humanity and machines coexist. The Mitchell Professors …
Queen’s Engineering is reinventing our understanding of machines; from how they think, to how they move, to how they – and we – feel. As announced in January 2021, the Mitchell Professors are five engineering researchers, funded by a gift from Bruce Mitchell, Sc’68, DSc’20, to explore the frontiers of how humanity and machines coexist. …
