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.

Isolation of Facial Thermographic Images in Cluttered Environments.
980503
The firm has patent-pending technology that makes it possible to identify intoxicated persons from a thermographic image of their face. For practical applications, the face will be part of an image that contains background items and other faces giving thermal returns. This background “clutter” must be identified and removed, and the subject’s face isolated before the analysis and subsequent determination of intoxication status can begin.
The background clutter is to be expected in real world application settings. Therefore, it must be addressed before the commercial benefits of the intoxication detection can be realized. The firm proposes to use various machine learning techniques to implement the required functionality.
