This project aims to develop a novel framework to detect content and privacy malpractices perpetrated by thousands of mobile apps. It will use innovative models and algorithms to achieve unprecedented levels of automation and scalability, making it possible for the first time to identify compliance violations across the global app ecosystem. Outcomes will include a knowledge base of prevalent app malpractices, detection algorithms, and a software framework for scalable app analysis. New evidence and tools will benefit both Australian and global policymakers and regulators in combating malpractices, users in identifying safe mobile apps for themselves, and local and global app market stakeholders in being more diligent about compliance.Read moreRead less
Edge-Accelerated Deep Learning. Implementing deep learning (DL) applications usually requires a large amount of collected data and powerful computing resources in the cloud. However, this centralised approach has issues of high latency, large bandwidth usage, and possible privacy violation for many practical applications. Without properly addressing these issues, the wider application of DL in practice will seriously be hindered. This project aims to solve several key challenging problems in eff ....Edge-Accelerated Deep Learning. Implementing deep learning (DL) applications usually requires a large amount of collected data and powerful computing resources in the cloud. However, this centralised approach has issues of high latency, large bandwidth usage, and possible privacy violation for many practical applications. Without properly addressing these issues, the wider application of DL in practice will seriously be hindered. This project aims to solve several key challenging problems in effective deployment and efficient execution of DL applications in a distributed edge-computing environment. Several innovative edge-computing methods will be developed for DL training, inference and implementation to achieve high performance with low latency and enhanced privacy.Read moreRead less

Summary
Structured Codes: Harnessing Interference to Improve Communication Networks. Interference occurs when a device involuntarily receives signals from unintended transmitters. Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes. Developing ....Structured Codes: Harnessing Interference to Improve Communication Networks. Interference occurs when a device involuntarily receives signals from unintended transmitters. Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes. Developing theory and novel coding techniques, this project expects to deepen our understanding of interference, and significantly increase the network bandwidth efficiency. Expected outcomes will benefit a wide range of applications such as next-generation mobile systems, sensor networks, and cyber-physical systems.Read moreRead less
