Computational infrastructure for developing deep machine learning models:
The computational infrastructure for developing deep machine learning models aims to enable new developments in machine learning of deep neural network models by providing the specialised computing necessary to train and evaluate the networks. In the last three years, deep networks have smashed previous performance ceilings for tasks such as object recognition in images, speech recognition and automatic translation, bringing the prospect of machine intelligence closer than ever. Modern machine learning techniques have had huge impact in the last decade in fields such as robotics, computer vision and data analytics. The facility would enable Australian researchers to develop, learn and apply deep networks to problems of national importance in robotic vision and big data analytics. Read moreRead less

Artificial intelligence (AI), as it continues to grow and evolve, is taking an increasingly leading role in strategic plans of the world’s leading economies, IT companies, and universities, with the promise to be a key driver in innovation, science, education, and society. This project will establish a whopping Volta graphical processing unit Cluster (wVGC) with the aim of smashing current impediments to compute-intensive AI research. The wVGC features a contemporary HPC system equipped with 120 most advanced NVIDIA Volta GPUs distributed in 30 high capable nodes. The wVGC will transform AI research in Australia, putting us on the same footing as leading research groups around the globe, and at the forefront of the world’s AI revolution.Read moreRead less

Summary
The AustLit resource: supporting research in studies of Australian literary and narrative cultures. AustLit traces the history of Australia’s engagement with the art of story by creating an innovative web-based environment where all aspects of literary history can be explored, analysed and shared. The 2013 program will broaden AustLit’s information base in areas ranging from contemporary multi-lingual publishing to publishing in the colonial era.
