Fusion of digital microscopy and plain text reports for automated analysis. The project aims to develop advanced computer-aided analytics systems with the goal to improve the workflow and automation in the pathology industry. Improvements will be achieved by fusing information from both digital images and plain text medical reports.

The project aims to develop advanced computer-aided analytics systems with the goal to improve the workflow and automation in the pathology industry. Improvements will be achieved by fusing information from both digital images and plain text medical reports. In collaboration with a partner organisation, the project team will field trial the new analytics systems against traditional pathology tests to evaluate both efficacy and reliability. In addition, the project is also aimed to construct a large digital slide databank which will aid training and education. The expected outcome of the project is to perform existing tasks cheaper and more efficiently. Read moreRead less
ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision. Robots are vital to Australia's future prosperity in the face of high relative wages, low or decreasing productivity, and impending labour shortages. However the work and workplaces of our most important industries are unstructured and changeable and current robots are challenged by their inability to quickly, safely and reliably "see" and "understand" what is around them. The Centre's research will create the fundamental science and technologies th ....ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision. Robots are vital to Australia's future prosperity in the face of high relative wages, low or decreasing productivity, and impending labour shortages. However the work and workplaces of our most important industries are unstructured and changeable and current robots are challenged by their inability to quickly, safely and reliably "see" and "understand" what is around them. The Centre's research will create the fundamental science and technologies that will allow robots to see as we do, and overcome the last barrier to the ubiquitous deployment of robots into society for the benefit of all.Read moreRead less

ARC Research Hub for Driving Farming Productivity and Disease Prevention. The ARC Research Hub for Driving Farming Productivity and Disease Prevention aims to increase farm production and disease prevention through advancing and transferring new artificial intelligence technologies into industrial deployment. The Hub will combine machine vision, machine learning, software quality control, engineering, biology, and farming industries to develop technologies to build more intelligent systems. Thes ....ARC Research Hub for Driving Farming Productivity and Disease Prevention. The ARC Research Hub for Driving Farming Productivity and Disease Prevention aims to increase farm production and disease prevention through advancing and transferring new artificial intelligence technologies into industrial deployment. The Hub will combine machine vision, machine learning, software quality control, engineering, biology, and farming industries to develop technologies to build more intelligent systems. These dynamic systems will help determine what goal to achieve and the most efficient plan to achieve it. This Hub is expected to contribute to higher farming efficiency, lower production costs and fewer disease risks, giving the Australian industry new business opportunities and an international competitive advantage.Read moreRead less
Application of manifold-based image analysis to identify subtle changes in digitally-captured pathology samples. This project will research and develop advanced computer aided analytics for digital pathology with the aim of automating several common pathology tests. This project should not only greatly increase the speed of pathology tests but should also improve quality, lower costs and improve patient outcomes.
Precise recognition for automated harvesting and grading of strawberries. This project aims to improve automated strawberry harvesting to enable industrial harvesters to be deployed for commercial use and to lift the productivity of the Australian fruit industry. Precise recognition and grading of strawberries is a major obstacle in developing fully-automated commercial strawberry harvesting systems. Current colour-based fruit recognition techniques have intrinsic limitations in meeting the need ....Precise recognition for automated harvesting and grading of strawberries. This project aims to improve automated strawberry harvesting to enable industrial harvesters to be deployed for commercial use and to lift the productivity of the Australian fruit industry. Precise recognition and grading of strawberries is a major obstacle in developing fully-automated commercial strawberry harvesting systems. Current colour-based fruit recognition techniques have intrinsic limitations in meeting the needs of automatic strawberry harvesting. This project aims to investigate high-level syntactic recognition approaches that embed high-order texture patterns of ripe fruit and hyperspectral analysis techniques to achieve partially occluded fruit recognition and grading of fruit at the level required by commercial production.Read moreRead less
