View and shape invariant modeling of human actions for smart surveillance. This project aims to enable surveillance cameras to interpret videos and detect unexpected activity in real time. Existing surveillance cameras are unable to interpret videos. Because most are not monitored in real time, they play no role in improving security response time. The project plans to develop algorithms to detect actions from any camera viewpoint in continuous videos, a capability that is imperative for smart s ....View and shape invariant modeling of human actions for smart surveillance. This project aims to enable surveillance cameras to interpret videos and detect unexpected activity in real time. Existing surveillance cameras are unable to interpret videos. Because most are not monitored in real time, they play no role in improving security response time. The project plans to develop algorithms to detect actions from any camera viewpoint in continuous videos, a capability that is imperative for smart surveillance yet missing in current techniques. This would improve security and safety response time to events that need immediate attention, such as crimes and medical emergencies, and offer autonomous aids to elderly care, smart homes, child minding, patient monitoring and post-trauma rehabilitation.Read moreRead less

Summary
From Bayesian filtering to smoothing and prediction for multiple object systems. This project will develop new and improved algorithms for tracking multiple targets, such as tanks, submarines or planes, using the state of the art in mathematical and computational design. These will enable more efficient and accurate technologies for defence related applications including intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance.
Parameter estimation for multi-object systems. Parameter estimation in multi-object system is essential to the application of multi-object filtering to a wider range of practical problems with social and commercial benefits. This project develops the necessary parameter estimation techniques for complete 'plug-and-play' multi-object filtering solutions that facilitates widespread applications.
Online violent extremist audiences in Australia and the United Kingdom. This project aims to develop an understanding of the role and influence of the internet on violent extremism. It plans to use mixed methods to investigate the ways in which online messages are received and interpreted and the contexts within which this occurs. It plans to apply an innovative research framework using media theories and concepts to the study of online violent extremism.

This project aims to develop an understanding of the role and influence of the internet on violent extremism. It plans to use mixed methods to investigate the ways in which online messages are received and interpreted and the contexts within which this occurs. It plans to apply an innovative research framework using media theories and concepts to the study of online violent extremism. The project aims to contribute to the development of measures to counter violent extremism by addressing assumptions about the relationship between online violent extremist content and violent extremist behaviour; and developing understanding of how violent extremist messaging is received and interpreted.Read moreRead less
