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.

Agreement:

Machine Learning for anomaly detection

Agreement Number:

1017557

Duration: from Apr 1, 2024 to Feb 28, 2025
Description:

This project develops machine-learning-based anomaly detection software modules as part of AutoMetrics’ solutions for real-time monitoring of industrial manufacturing processes. The new modules are expected to reduce the setup and calibration time of AutoMetrics’ current system by 70% while maintaining a high accuracy of above 96%. The project entails implementations of various analytical approaches for real-time anomaly detection and testing based on the AutoMetrics dataset of labeled industrial data.
