Summary
Genetic Programming for Big Data Analytics. The project aims to extend a powerful machine learning method, called genetic programming and also developing a new concept called Alpha program, for big data analytics. This project expects to generate a new approach by finding a systematic approach to develop gene structures using information theory. By borrowing the best genes from the population of programs, the Alpha program concept will be developed for the first time. The proposed approach aims ....Genetic Programming for Big Data Analytics. The project aims to extend a powerful machine learning method, called genetic programming and also developing a new concept called Alpha program, for big data analytics. This project expects to generate a new approach by finding a systematic approach to develop gene structures using information theory. By borrowing the best genes from the population of programs, the Alpha program concept will be developed for the first time. The proposed approach aims to enhance genetic programming for many practical problems. I contend that not only finding better tools for big data analytics is in the best interest of machine learning and big data communities, it also provides significant benefits for other communities and industries in Australia.Read moreRead less
Modelling graph-of-graphs for solving document categorisation problems. Documents in the World Wide Web, such as scientific documents, exhibit a referencing structure as well as being structured objects themselves. This project addresses some inherent limitations of existing modelling techniques in order to improve on the quality of results, and to allow the addressing of some unsolved problems involving documents.
Estimating the Topology of Low-Dimensional Data Using Deep Neural Networks. This project will expand on the superhuman visual capabilities of deep neural networks to allow us to analyse the topology of 3- and 4-dimensional manifolds. While these spaces still count as low-dimensional, 4-dimensional manifolds typically are beyond human visual comprehension. The topology of a manifold describes its essential properties such as the number of connected components, holes, tunnels and cavities of vario ....Estimating the Topology of Low-Dimensional Data Using Deep Neural Networks. This project will expand on the superhuman visual capabilities of deep neural networks to allow us to analyse the topology of 3- and 4-dimensional manifolds. While these spaces still count as low-dimensional, 4-dimensional manifolds typically are beyond human visual comprehension. The topology of a manifold describes its essential properties such as the number of connected components, holes, tunnels and cavities of various dimensions. Traditional methods from computational topology fail in large practical applications due to computational restrictions. We propose an approximation that overcomes previous limitations and can open new doors to data analysis in material science, medical imaging, dynamical systems and other applications.

Transforming data assets into organisational knowledge assets sits in the hands of a few, highly specialised, data scientists. The aim of this research is to design educational instruments to support non-experts to teach artificial intelligence (AI) systems in a similar way to educating human teachers to teach human learners. The significance of the project lies in affording the wider smart, but not necessarily AI expert, community the ability to contribute to growing our knowledge-based society in a safe, transparent and trustworthy manner. Outcomes will include innovative instruments to teach machines, novel knowledge creation, trusted and transparent AI systems, and a new generation of human teachers specialised in educating AI systems.Read moreRead less
Cross-domain knowledge transfer for data-driven decision making. This project aims to develop a set of cross-domain knowledge transfer methodologies to support Data-Driven Decision-Making (D3M) systems. D3M is essential in business, particularly for ever-changing environments in today’s big data era, but D3Ms for solving new problems may face in-domain data insufficiency. The challenge is to effectively transfer knowledge from multiple heterogeneous source domains. The outcomes are expected to t ....Cross-domain knowledge transfer for data-driven decision making. This project aims to develop a set of cross-domain knowledge transfer methodologies to support Data-Driven Decision-Making (D3M) systems. D3M is essential in business, particularly for ever-changing environments in today’s big data era, but D3Ms for solving new problems may face in-domain data insufficiency. The challenge is to effectively transfer knowledge from multiple heterogeneous source domains. The outcomes are expected to transfer implicit and explicit knowledge, handle discrete and continuous outputs, and support business decision-making, which should advance the discipline of transfer learning and data-driven DSS in dynamically changing environments.Read moreRead less

AI-Human Empowered Team Decision-Making. This project aims to introduce machine intelligence into human team decision-making using the brain-to-brain synchrony that arises when people cooperate toward achieving a goal. The expected outcomes are models and indicators of this synchrony, and methods to fuse individual human decisions with autonomous machine agents, into collective decisions. This new knowledge is expected to greatly increase our understanding of cooperative decision-making by human ....AI-Human Empowered Team Decision-Making. This project aims to introduce machine intelligence into human team decision-making using the brain-to-brain synchrony that arises when people cooperate toward achieving a goal. The expected outcomes are models and indicators of this synchrony, and methods to fuse individual human decisions with autonomous machine agents, into collective decisions. This new knowledge is expected to greatly increase our understanding of cooperative decision-making by humans and machine agents. The tools produced are expected to provide a computational basis for human-autonomy teaming, the core of Industry 5.0, that software developers and end-users in various industries could further build upon to optimise complex decision-making to benefit humanity.Read moreRead less
Hardware Acceleration for Neural Systems. To really understand how brains work, we need to simulate neural networks of a size similar to that of the human brain (100 billion neurons, 100 trillion connections). Simulating such a network on standard computers in not possible because of its sheer size. Several groups are currently building very expensive and proprietary hardware to solve this, but the output from these projects will not be accessible to other researchers. In order to make real prog ....Hardware Acceleration for Neural Systems. To really understand how brains work, we need to simulate neural networks of a size similar to that of the human brain (100 billion neurons, 100 trillion connections). Simulating such a network on standard computers in not possible because of its sheer size. Several groups are currently building very expensive and proprietary hardware to solve this, but the output from these projects will not be accessible to other researchers. In order to make real progress in neuroscience, many more researchers need to be enabled to participate. To do this, the project will build a system from commercial hardware (FPGAs) that will cost only a few ten thousand dollars and it will make this design and software available for free.
