Kernel and Margin Based Machine Learning Algorithms. Certain machine learning algorithms, such as support vector machines, utilizing
the ideas of large margins and kernels have attracted much attention lately
because of their impressive performance on real world problems such as optical
character recognition. We plan to refine and extend such algorithms to a wide
range of different machine learning problems such as gene sequence analysis,
image processing and text classification. Expected ....Kernel and Margin Based Machine Learning Algorithms. Certain machine learning algorithms, such as support vector machines, utilizing
the ideas of large margins and kernels have attracted much attention lately
because of their impressive performance on real world problems such as optical
character recognition. We plan to refine and extend such algorithms to a wide
range of different machine learning problems such as gene sequence analysis,
image processing and text classification. Expected outcomes include the
development of software that allows the solution of hitherto unsolved machine
learning problems, and the ability to solve problems larger than those solvable
by the current generation of machine learning tools.Read moreRead less
Spatial Cognition—Expressive Representation Formalisms and Effective Reasoning Mechanisms. The project will contribute significantly to the advancement of knowledge in breakthrough science in qualitative spatial reasoning and smart information use in geographic information systems. Expressive spatial languages are important in organising spatial knowledge, defining spatial query languages and guiding spatial data mining. Effective spatial reasoning mechanisms bring theory closer to applications ....Spatial Cognition—Expressive Representation Formalisms and Effective Reasoning Mechanisms. The project will contribute significantly to the advancement of knowledge in breakthrough science in qualitative spatial reasoning and smart information use in geographic information systems. Expressive spatial languages are important in organising spatial knowledge, defining spatial query languages and guiding spatial data mining. Effective spatial reasoning mechanisms bring theory closer to applications including consistency checking and spatial query pre-processing. The project will help in extracting knowledge from massive spatial databases, meeting the growing needs of naive users for spatial information and establishing Australia as a major player in spatial cognition research and in the development of geo-location services.Read moreRead less

Summary
Network for Australian security technologies integration. The frontline of community safety is security technologies which include sensors to track movements and conversations of suspects; signal processing techniques for extracting information; intelligent search/audit techniques to track financial transactions; analysis techniques for predicting the spread of epidemic; and above all human factors in security operations. The aim of this initiative is to establish a network for "safeguarding Aus ....Network for Australian security technologies integration. The frontline of community safety is security technologies which include sensors to track movements and conversations of suspects; signal processing techniques for extracting information; intelligent search/audit techniques to track financial transactions; analysis techniques for predicting the spread of epidemic; and above all human factors in security operations. The aim of this initiative is to establish a network for "safeguarding Australia". This network, built on the concept of "network of networks", draws on the expertise of researchers and practitioners from diverse fields to provide an integrated approach towards development and use of security technologies for the safety of the community.Read moreRead less
