Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Robust and Resilient Machine Learning for Connected Health-Care Systems
984858
The Project focuses on building resilient and secure machine learning (ML)
techniques for connected health-care systems. With the advent of
connected medical devices, there is immense potential for continuous onsite
data gathering and analysis. Recent advances in ML techniques have
unlocked significant potential for automated detection and diagnosis of
medical conditions and disease monitoring, especially for remote and vulnerable populations. Unfortunately, this has also opened the doors to many kinds of malicious security attacks, especially those targeting the ML algorithms via adversarial attacks (i.e., evasion and poisoning attacks). The Project will investigate systematic techniques for making ML algorithms used in the healthcare domain robust and resilient to different kinds of attacks, and to provide early warning of attacks on the medical devices so that suitable actions can be taken. The team will leverage its collective expertise in the domains of cyber-security, dependability, and machine learning, to develop fundamental innovations in this area.
