The project aims to develop algorithms to support the development of robust and accurate computer vision systems. Real-world visual data (images, videos) is inherently noisy and outlier prone. To build computer vision systems that work reliably in the real world, it is necessary to ensure that the underlying algorithms are robust and efficient. The project aims to devise novel algorithms that can compute the best possible result given the input data in a short amount of time. The expected outcomes would support the construction of reliable and accurate computer vision-based systems, such as large-scale 3-D reconstruction from photo collections, self-driving cars and domestic robots.Read moreRead less

Space-based space surveillance with robust computer vision algorithms. This project aims to develop computer vision algorithms to detect man-made objects in space. These algorithms function on nanosatellite platforms, enabling space-based space surveillance. This technology is expected to provide always-on monitoring of the Earth's orbit to enhance existing defence infrastructure and protect vital space assets, including communications and navigational satellites, in Earth’s orbit from collisions and covert sabotage. Increased space use by government and civilian agencies opens up opportunities for the space industry. This project is expected to develop Australia’s space surveillance capabilities, protect space assets and capture a growing market.Read moreRead less

Summary
Revocable multi-dimensional shape-based multimodal hand biometrics for personal identification and verification. This project will investigate a new personal verification system based on hand biometrics. It will make significant improvements by thwarting identity frauds; creating trust in ebanking and epayments; providing social acceptance of biometrics; helping immigration and passport control; and reducing use of plastic cards to safeguard the environment.
Effective computational methods for nonlinear cone optimisation with industrial applications. This project brings together a number of national and international researchers whose combined expertise will focus on solving optimisation problems arising in a range of industries. The work will result in new cutting edge optimisation technology that can benefit industry and the community.
Developing smart embedded host-based intrusion detection systems. Computer intrusion is a major concern in many places. It is estimated that cybercrime cost firms US$1 trillion globally in 2008. Many serious cyber attacks, including cyber espionage, do not generate significant network traffic and can easily penetrate network-based intrusion detection systems (NIDS). Such attacks often attempt to compromise individual hosts and hence they are best detected at the host level. We aim to design i ....Developing smart embedded host-based intrusion detection systems. Computer intrusion is a major concern in many places. It is estimated that cybercrime cost firms US$1 trillion globally in 2008. Many serious cyber attacks, including cyber espionage, do not generate significant network traffic and can easily penetrate network-based intrusion detection systems (NIDS). Such attacks often attempt to compromise individual hosts and hence they are best detected at the host level. We aim to design innovative host-based IDS, as a complement to the NIDS, to address this issue. The outcomes of this project will strengthen the national capability to resist attacks by criminals and terrorists on Australian networked critical infrastructures and also enhance the global competitiveness of Australia’s information technology industry.Read moreRead less
A theoretical framework for practical partial fingerprint identification. Fingerprints captured from a crime scene are often partial and poor quality which makes it difficult to identify the criminal suspects from large databases. This project will find mathematical models which can estimate the missing information located in the blank areas of a partial fingerprint and effectively identify it.

The outcome of the Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) concept learning system will help mitigate the impact of Adverse Drug Events hence directly contribute to the National Research Priority promoting and maintaining good health. It will tailor SNOMED knowledge to different clinical settings and provide evidence-based preventative health care. The enabling methodology from this project for building computerised cognitive learning systems will be a frontier technology to enhance smart information use in clinical decision support. It will also contribute to the development of knowledge-based systems. A network version of the developed system will assist doctors working in rural and remote areas with their clinical decision making and prescribing practice.Read moreRead less
