Crisis management services using traditional methods like phone calls can be easily delayed due to limited communication ability in the disaster area. This project aims to help users make smart decision in critical situations by using big social media data to detect complex social events, receive recommendations, and observe event summaries. We will invent advanced social data models, efficient indices and query techniques for situation awareness in big media. We expect to develop a system to evaluate the proposed situation awareness framework. The outcomes of the project will benefit social media analysis and big data fields. It will also improve the government services by enabling the real time situation awareness in crisis.Read moreRead less
Increasing data quality with group associations in outsourcing environments. Outsourcing of data storage is increasingly common, but poses major problems for data utility and confidentiality. This project aims to discover how tuples (data structures) in fragments can be grouped to increase the utility of queries executed over fragments.

Outsourcing of data storage is increasingly common, but poses major problems for data utility and confidentiality. This project aims to discover how tuples (data structures) in fragments can be grouped to increase the utility of queries executed over fragments. The project will create a framework that satisfies information protection goals while achieving utility for queries. The developed algorithms and techniques will formally specify and develop a model to validate loose association rules while minimising data leakage risks. The outcomes will benefit Australians through enabling sharing and linking increasingly large datasets securely and cheaply.Read moreRead less
Data mining complex transactional and criminal networks. Money laundering, if undetected, poses a major concern for governments and communities. The software system platform for detecting money laundering networks from this project will be the first that can assist intelligence data analysts to detect unknown money laundering networks faster and more accurately, helping fight crimes more efficiently.

This project aims to develop a breakthrough framework for decision-focused learning by integrating explainable graph neural networks and efficient computational methods. It expects to create new methodologies of graph representation learning for unlocking data insight with spatiotemporal knowledge while to build new accelerated optimisation theories for speeding up decision-focused learning model. The expected outcomes will advance big spatiotemporal data analytics and nonlinear optimisation theory for solving decision-making tasks towards a future energy system. This should promote the Australian power industry transition to a sustainable future grid based on a digitalisation approach to efficient energy management against climate changes.Read moreRead less
Concept Drift Detection and Reaction for Data-driven Decision Making. Unforeseeable changes to patterns that underlie data (concept drift) occur in all organisational data, and in unstructured data, making subsequent data-driven prediction less accurate as time passes, which leads to poor decision outcomes. To solve these problems, this project aims to develop novel fuzzy competence models to reflect concept drift, with methods to detect and react to changes, and integrate them into Decision Sup ....Concept Drift Detection and Reaction for Data-driven Decision Making. Unforeseeable changes to patterns that underlie data (concept drift) occur in all organisational data, and in unstructured data, making subsequent data-driven prediction less accurate as time passes, which leads to poor decision outcomes. To solve these problems, this project aims to develop novel fuzzy competence models to reflect concept drift, with methods to detect and react to changes, and integrate them into Decision Support Systems (DSS) to provide adaptivity for ever-changing environments. These cutting-edge results are intended to be directly used to enhance organisational real-time data analytics and dynamic decision making, and are expected to significantly contribute to information science by introducing a new research field, adaptive data-driven DSS.Read moreRead less

A data science framework for modelling disease patterns from medical images. This project aims to extract models of disease patterns from medical imaging data, using deep learning, smart image processing, machine learning, and statistical modelling to quantify and model patterns conventional methods cannot detect. These disease models are expected to improve understanding of particular diseases and enable precision medicine, which recognises that there are important differences between individuals with a particular disease, and that when patients are separated into sub-populations with similar disease patterns, treatment can be tailored to these sub-populations.Read moreRead less
Omni-modality medical image analysis and visualisation. The term ‘Omni’-modality imaging (OMI) has been coined to describe the integration of multiple, complementary medical imaging modalities. However, there is currently a lack of an appropriate means to assimilate and derive maximum benefit from these integrated data. This project aims to provide a new approach to OMI data analysis and visualisation, by deriving a novel ‘level of relevance’ from the overlapping anatomical and pathological stru ....Omni-modality medical image analysis and visualisation. The term ‘Omni’-modality imaging (OMI) has been coined to describe the integration of multiple, complementary medical imaging modalities. However, there is currently a lack of an appropriate means to assimilate and derive maximum benefit from these integrated data. This project aims to provide a new approach to OMI data analysis and visualisation, by deriving a novel ‘level of relevance’ from the overlapping anatomical and pathological structures in the data which will be used to suppress superfluous data and highlight the most relevant data to maximise the information gained from the OMI data. Further, OMI visualisation is proposed to efficiently navigate through the overlapping data.Read moreRead less

This project seeks to advance the development of new biomedical image recognition and analysis solutions by associating biomedical images with biomedical knowledge and personalised data. The provision of accurate and robust multi-object recognition and analysis from biomedical image data is a fundamental requirement for biomedical imaging applications. This project aims to improve the recognition and analysis of anatomical and functional structures from biomedical images with ‘holistic ontology’ modelling that represents a multi-level biological, physiological, and anatomical knowledge base. The project will potentially have application in many health care areas, such as computer aided diagnosis, image-guided surgery planning, and image-based disease modelling.Read moreRead less
