Making Meta-learning Generalised . This project aims to develop novel machine learning techniques, termed generalised meta-learning, to make machines better utilise past experience to solve new tasks with few data. It expects to reduce the undesirable dependence of current machine learning on labelled data and significantly expand its application scope. Expected outcomes of the project consist of new theoretical results on meta-learning and a set of innovative algorithms that can support the bui ....Making Meta-learning Generalised . This project aims to develop novel machine learning techniques, termed generalised meta-learning, to make machines better utilise past experience to solve new tasks with few data. It expects to reduce the undesirable dependence of current machine learning on labelled data and significantly expand its application scope. Expected outcomes of the project consist of new theoretical results on meta-learning and a set of innovative algorithms that can support the building of next generation of computer vision systems to work in open and dynamic environments. This should be able to produce solid benefits to the science, society, and economy of Australian via the application of these advanced intelligent systems.Read moreRead less
Advancing the visualisation and quantification of nephrons with MRI. . This project aims to characterise key components of nephrons, the glomeruli and tubules, using magnetic resonance imaging without contrast agents, in combination with Deep Learning and super-resolution techniques. Nephrons, the basic functional unit of the kidney, are critical to the maintenance of the body’s homeostasis. Their number and architecture are critical determinants of kidney function. The expected outcomes are inn ....Advancing the visualisation and quantification of nephrons with MRI. . This project aims to characterise key components of nephrons, the glomeruli and tubules, using magnetic resonance imaging without contrast agents, in combination with Deep Learning and super-resolution techniques. Nephrons, the basic functional unit of the kidney, are critical to the maintenance of the body’s homeostasis. Their number and architecture are critical determinants of kidney function. The expected outcomes are innovative semi-automated nephron visualisation and quantitation tools that enable efficient renal phenotyping. Techniques tailored to widely accessible preclinical research scanners are expected to accelerate research into genetic and environmental factors affecting kidney microstructure in embryonic and post-natal life.Read moreRead less
