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.

Adaptable AI tools for safe and reliable remote-operation of aerial manipulators interacting with their environment
961569
This project proposes the development of AI-based tools for the identification and monitoring of environment dynamics, their effect on a remote robotic platform behavior, and the adaptation of the latter to maintain stability and performance. The AI tools that will be developed during this project will contribute to increasing the level of autonomy of aerial cargo systems by providing adaptability to unknown and changing environment conditions (related to both remote site and human operator). By monitoring system behavior, these AI tools will also contribute to optimizing the dynamic response of these cargo systems during operation, thereby maximizing safety and reliability. The implementation and validation of these tools using digital twins and virtual environments will also bring the capacity for planning new operations, training and system robustness evaluation in the presence of unknown and changing conditions.
