New technique could be used to choose best therapies for patients and measure their effectiveness
Evaluating the effectiveness of therapies for neurodegenerative diseases is often difficult because each patient鈥檚 progression is different. A new study shows artificial intelligence (AI) analysis of blood samples can predict and explain disease progression, which could one day help doctors choose more appropriate and effective treatments for patients.
Congratulations to Professors聽Tal Arbel听补苍诲听 Christophe Dubach who has just been named as two of the outstanding researchers to join the聽prestigious CIFAR AI Program, the goal of which is to "recruit and retain in Canada some of the world's leading researchers in AI and provide them with long-term, dedicated research funding to support their research programs, and to help them train the next generation of AI leaders" (
CIFAR today announced its newest cohort of Canada CIFAR AI Chairs, which includes nine researchers from 缅北强奸, bringing the total number of 缅北强奸 researchers named to the program to 17. These top academic researchers are part of the $125 million Pan-Canadian AI Strategy, the world鈥檚 first national strategy of its kind. The Canada CIFAR AI Chair Program represents an investment of $30 million at nine universities, and mobilizes over 150 researchers across the country.
ECE Professor Tal Arbel recently presented research at the 鈥�AI and the Future of Cancer Research鈥� (From the Goodman Cancer Research Centre鈥檚 Public Lecture Series).
Professor Arbel spoke about Artificial Intelligence (AI) and specifically her research focus on computer vision, already showing clinical success in the fields of brain tumours and multiple sclerosis.
Professor Tal Arbel of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering spoke to the plenary session at the聽International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine Conference (ISMRM 2019).聽 Erik L. Ridley (AuntMinnie Staff writer) wrote that "In her talk ... Arbel shared her group's work in developing machine-learning techniques for medical image analysis of large clinical trial MRI datasets, specifically for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS)."

Congratulations to 缅北强奸 graduate聽Yoshua Bengio, BEng鈥�86, MSc鈥�88, PhD鈥�91, on being named a co-recipient of the 2018聽A.M. Turing Award. Frequently referred to as the 鈥淣obel Prize of Computing,鈥� the Turing Award, presented by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), recognizes individuals for major contributions of lasting importance to computing.聽
Mila 鈥� Quebec Institute of Artificial Intelligence officially inaugurated its new premises at the O Mile-Ex complex this week, in the presence of the Minister of Economy and Innovation for the government of Quebec, Pierre Fitzgibbon, and more than 200 partners and players in the Quebec artificial intelligence ecosystem.
A team of scientists has successfully trained a new artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to make accurate predictions regarding cognitive decline leading to Alzheimer鈥檚 disease.

[鈥 AI is also finding use in helping physicians detect early signs of Alzheimer鈥檚 in the brain and understand how those physical changes unfold in different people. 鈥淲hen a radiologist reads a scan, it鈥檚 impossible to tell whether a person will progress to Alzheimer鈥檚 disease,鈥� says Pedro Rosa-Neto, a neurologist at 缅北强奸 in Montreal.
Thanks to the hard work and determination of James J. Clark, a professor at the 缅北强奸 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Director of its Centre for Intelligent Machines, and of Marc-Andr茅 Gemme, a member of the Palais des congr猫s de Montr茅al鈥檚 business development team, 6,000 delegates will be converging in Montr茅al in October 2021 for the (ICCV).
An article for The Globe and Mail examines the emerging trend among investment firms to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) in their daily operations.
These new systems can identify various patterns and then make increasingly accurate predictions based on this information.
As this shift suggests uncertainty in the job market, Professor Sebastien Betermier comments on further implications of the rise of AI in the financial domain.
To help spur artificial-intelligence research in Montreal, Microsoft will provide a gift of $1 million to 缅北强奸.
