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.

Applying Natural Language processing (NLP) techniques to industrial text data
987898
This research project will investigate Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques from the consumer and academic sectors, experiment with diverse sets of industrial text data, and leverage findings to build new data processing and modeling techniques that will improve the Razor product.
These improvements will enhance Razor’s ability identify incidents, identify root causes, and describe corrective actions and provide an additional competitive edge in Industrial Data Analytics and AI space.

Automatic Contextualization of Discrete Event Data
918651
The next step along Praemo’s AI machine learning technology roadmap is the development of Reinforcement Learning. The project focuses on building tools to automate the process of contextualizing data from discrete event processes, such as manufacturing. Once implemented this will significantly reduce the amount of human intervention in the machine learning process by directly detecting correlations with inputs to provide actionable insights..
