Bayesian learning for decision making in the big data era: This fellowship project aims to develop new techniques in evidence-based learning and decision-making in the big data era. Big data has arrived, and with it a huge global demand for statistical knowledge and skills to analyse these data for improved learning and decision-making. This project will seek to address this need by creating a step-change in knowledge in Bayesian statistics and translating this knowledge to real-world challenges in industry, environment and health. The new big data statistical analysts trained through the project could also create much needed capacity at national and international levels.Read moreRead less

Summary
New stochastic models for Science, Economics, Social Science and Engineering. Stochastic, or random, phenomena abound in society. This project will combine advancement of the theory of stochastic models at a deep level with application to problems arising in science, economics, social science and engineering, and outreach to educate members of the public about random processes of significance in their lives.

Summary
New directions, new problems and new data types in statistical science. Statistically challenging problems today involve answering many more questions than we have data. Solving them will elucidate the causes of diseases such as cancer, and provide better security for the community. The project will develop new methods for tackling these challenging problems, taking statistical science in new directions.
