Scalable Cross-Media Hashing for Searching Heterogeneous Data Sources. This project aims to use novel indexing and search approaches to realise the value of multimedia data. The ever-increasing availability and heterogeneity of multimedia data are calling for new approaches to search information across different media types and data sources. This project aims to enable accurate and real-time cross-media searches from billions of multimedia objects collected from various media sources by tackling ....Scalable Cross-Media Hashing for Searching Heterogeneous Data Sources. This project aims to use novel indexing and search approaches to realise the value of multimedia data. The ever-increasing availability and heterogeneity of multimedia data are calling for new approaches to search information across different media types and data sources. This project aims to enable accurate and real-time cross-media searches from billions of multimedia objects collected from various media sources by tackling the heterogeneity and scalability issues. Expected outcomes include scalable cross-media hashing techniques to capture implicit correlations existing in heterogeneous data and embed high-dimensional features into short binary codes; new binary code indexing and ranking schemes to further improve search speed and quality; and a large-scale cross-media system to evaluate methods and demonstrate the practical value.Read moreRead less
Realising the value of mobile videos with context awareness. Innovative approaches to analysing online video content and context will lead to new ways of interacting with video in the mobile world. This project will aim to develop real-time mobile systems for enabling rich and highly dynamic digital video experiences through context-aware indexing, retrieval and consumption of mobile videos.
Intelligent Image Retrieval from Distorted and Partial Queries for Rapid Mobile Identification of Pests Threatening Food and the Environment. Pests and diseases are major threats to the Australian food industry and environmental biosecurity. A rapid and mobile pest information retrieval system is critical to prevent a pest becoming established and devastating the region. However, automated insect image retrieval remains an unsolved challenge in the research community. This project addresses the ....Intelligent Image Retrieval from Distorted and Partial Queries for Rapid Mobile Identification of Pests Threatening Food and the Environment. Pests and diseases are major threats to the Australian food industry and environmental biosecurity. A rapid and mobile pest information retrieval system is critical to prevent a pest becoming established and devastating the region. However, automated insect image retrieval remains an unsolved challenge in the research community. This project addresses the fundamental problem of distorted and partial image query in cluttered background in order to achieve pest identification at a much earlier on-site stage. The success of this research will not only make a technical breakthrough towards retrieving objects with movable body parts, but also revolutionise the current pest detection and monitoring process.Read moreRead less

Summary
A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and ....A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and evaluation of IoT technologies and services. The project will also serve as a vehicle for the education and training of Australia’s next generation of scholars and engineers, and contribute to Australia’s scientific visibility.Read moreRead less
Single model irregular-region retrieval for rapid plant disease detection. This project aims to study the major technical barrier in plant disease image retrieval to build a pervasive rapid plant disease identification system. The techniques are designed to function on one or very few sample images, thus enabling on-line in field disease identification linked to authoritative plant disease image libraries. The success of this project will not only make significant contributions to fundamental th ....Single model irregular-region retrieval for rapid plant disease detection. This project aims to study the major technical barrier in plant disease image retrieval to build a pervasive rapid plant disease identification system. The techniques are designed to function on one or very few sample images, thus enabling on-line in field disease identification linked to authoritative plant disease image libraries. The success of this project will not only make significant contributions to fundamental theory in single model image retrieval, but also create a revolution in plant disease early detection for effective and efficient crop protection.Read moreRead less
