The relationship between multifaceted diversity and functioning of Canadian forests under global environmental change
(2024)
Human activities have caused biodiversity simplification at local and global scales and raised
concerns about potential effects on ecosystem functions and biodiversity conservation. In the
past decades, there have been ...
Distributed cooperative state estimation and control for multi-agent autonomous systems
(2024)
This dissertation addresses several problems related to distributed cooperative state
estimation and control design for multi-agent rigid-body autonomous systems, namely
bearing-based distributed pose estimation, distributed ...
Weaving perspectives in environmental justice and socio-spatial mapping tools: using key-informant interviews and an arts-integrated approach
(2024)
Environmental justice (EJ) is an ever-evolving term with multiple definitions,
applications, and practices across geographies and disciplines. With a strong history in the
United States, it is a growing field in Canada ...
Towards accessible healthcare: machine learning-enabled diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease
(2024)
Alzheimer’s disease poses a critical challenge to public health with an increasing prevalence among the aging population worldwide. The research question is whether machine
learning-based solutions could be a reliable, ...
Does acute heat stress modulate human milk production in lactating postpartum women?
(2024)
Introduction: With rising ambient temperatures globally, heat-vulnerable populations are at greater risk
of negative health consequences. Of increasing concern is the potential impact on human milk production
and potential ...
Impact of hardware impairments on the physical layer security of cell-free massive MIMO
(2024)
The development of new technologies and applications such as virtual reality, ultra-highdefinition video conferencing, and Internet of Things (IoT) has caused a substantial increase
in the demand for higher data rate in ...
Digital twin-assisted multi-layer network: resource optimization for low-latency and energy-efficiency
(2024)
The sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks are expected to provide ubiquitous connectivity, high
data rate, low latency, energy efficiency, and edge intelligence for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. However, effective ...

The silence that followed Indian Residential Schools: sharing our stories and reconnecting oral history among Omushkego Cree family members in Ontario
(2024)
For many Indian Residential School (IRS) survivors, there is a pervasive silence
surrounding their childhood experiences. The first research question, what childhood
stories pre-existed Indian Residential Schools for ...
Indirect minimization of common-mode voltage with finite control-set model predictive control in a five-level inverter
(2024)
Multilevel inverters (MLIs) are counted as the crucial part of the electric drive systems
(EDSs) primarily due to their ability to handle higher operating powers and voltages, to
provide high-quality output waveform, and ...
