Monitoring online topic evolvements with near-duplicate videos. This project will make a major impact on social media mining, and open up a new research direction for topic discovery. The project's advances will bring economic/social benefits to Australia, where collaborative access of large amount of Web/media information is vital, for example, data sharing and management, broadcasting, advertising, opinion gathering, etc.
Managing data with high redundancy and low value density. This project aims to develop a database for data storage, cleaning, compression, hierarchal summarisation, indexing and query processing for machination data.Database management systems are needed to support stream query processing and manage historical data to support complex data analytics, data mining and data-driven decision making. Machination data, often found in sensor networks, GPS and RFID applications, vehicle on-board devices a ....Managing data with high redundancy and low value density. This project aims to develop a database for data storage, cleaning, compression, hierarchal summarisation, indexing and query processing for machination data.Database management systems are needed to support stream query processing and manage historical data to support complex data analytics, data mining and data-driven decision making. Machination data, often found in sensor networks, GPS and RFID applications, vehicle on-board devices and medical monitoring devices are difficult to manage and process because of large volumes and streaming, high redundancy and low value density. This project is expected to stream machination data management to support scalable query processing and data analytics.Read moreRead less
Real-time Analytics on Urban Trajectory Data for Road Traffic Management. This project aims to develop real-time analytics and data management capabilities that leverage large-scale urban trajectory data to provide road operators with real-time insights into population movements and enable data-driven, customer-centric network operations. Current traffic management practices rely heavily on aggregate vehicle count data from fixed road sensors, which have limitations in accurately measuring traff ....Real-time Analytics on Urban Trajectory Data for Road Traffic Management. This project aims to develop real-time analytics and data management capabilities that leverage large-scale urban trajectory data to provide road operators with real-time insights into population movements and enable data-driven, customer-centric network operations. Current traffic management practices rely heavily on aggregate vehicle count data from fixed road sensors, which have limitations in accurately measuring traffic demand and network congestion propagation. This project seeks to develop innovative technologies to use a wide variety of data sources, especially massive trajectories of vehicles moving across the network, to better understand people's travel demands and road usage patterns and thus better manage the transport system.

Monitoring social events for user online behaviour analytics. This project aims to investigate the influence of public attention on steering user online behaviour. The exponential growth of online behaviour data makes online behaviour analytics increasingly important in social, commercial and political environments, but existing methods rely on user profiles only. The project will unify external social events with user profiles for behaviour analytics, and develop approaches for event database i ....Monitoring social events for user online behaviour analytics. This project aims to investigate the influence of public attention on steering user online behaviour. The exponential growth of online behaviour data makes online behaviour analytics increasingly important in social, commercial and political environments, but existing methods rely on user profiles only. The project will unify external social events with user profiles for behaviour analytics, and develop approaches for event database indexing, event-influenced behaviour modelling and prediction. The success of this project is expected to enhance users’ online experience and improve e-commerce’s market value.Read moreRead less
Taming the uncertainty in trajectory data. This project aims to develop effective and efficient methods to manage large scale uncertain trajectory data. It provides individuals, business, government and social groups the ability to explore significant uncertain trajectories and their patterns, for important usages in location based services, logistic, transportation and tourism.
Deep attribute-aware hashing for cross retrieval. This project aims to enable individuals, industries and governments, to freely access vital and linked information carried in different media types from different sources by developing a deep attribute-aware framework that embeds heterogeneous features into a shared data space to achieve effective and efficient cross system information retrieval. With the proliferation of heterogeneous data sources, there is an urgent need to enable search and re ....Deep attribute-aware hashing for cross retrieval. This project aims to enable individuals, industries and governments, to freely access vital and linked information carried in different media types from different sources by developing a deep attribute-aware framework that embeds heterogeneous features into a shared data space to achieve effective and efficient cross system information retrieval. With the proliferation of heterogeneous data sources, there is an urgent need to enable search and retrieval across different media types and domains. The framework developed by the project uses deep learning methods to develop meaningful image attributes to positively bridge the modality gap and the domain gap when hash functions are affixed to data. This project will significantly advance the research of multimedia retrieval, and benefit a series of related research problems whenever heterogeneous multimedia data are involved in their applications.Read moreRead less
Synergising multimedia content understanding with social data analysis. This project aims to develop novel approaches to explore synergies within big social multimedia data from both social and multimedia perspective. It provides individuals, groups, and businesses the ability to tap into the wisdom of crowds to enlarge knowledge base, enhance user experience, understand the pulse of crowds and make informed decision.
Detection of location significance from quality enhanced trajectory data. This project aims to develop effective and efficient methods to utilise large scale Global Positioning System, route and location data to provide individuals, business, government and social groups, the ability to assess the relative significance of locations and associated services, for use in applications such as transportation, logistics, public safety, tourism and utilities.
In-memory moving objects analytics for real-time business applications. This project aims to develop a novel computing foundation based on in-memory technologies to address significant challenges of big data and location-based business intelligence, building upon the well-recognised research excellence in spatiotemporal data management at the University of Queensland, and HANA, SAP's (Systems, Applications, Products in data processing) new in-memory analytics platform.
