This project will enhance information security, which is absolutely crucial for rapidly growing e-commerce, e-government services and for national security (Priority 4 -Safeguarding Australia - Protection against Terrorism and Crime). The project will strengthen international collaboration by reciprocal exchange of researchers and postgraduate students leading to more attractive and productive research environment. At the same time, the project will help to maintain high research profile of Australian researchers, to increase the capacity for consultancy and contract work, and provide a cutting-edge information technology for the Australian telecommunications industry, business and government (Priority 3 - Frontier Technologies).

Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficie ....Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficient algorithms and data structures for gathering high-quality approximations of the full proximity information, and will use these innovations as the basis for new, practical tools for visualization, and clustering in data mining.Read moreRead less
