Approximate authentication systems for digital information. Assurance about the origin and integrity of digital content is crucial not only in high security applications but also in everyday life scenarios such as providing proof that an X-ray image presented as part of an insurance claim is authentic, or a news clip is not tampered with. The outcomes of this project will significantly enhance trustworthiness of multimedia information systems which are increasingly used in areas such as surveil ....Approximate authentication systems for digital information. Assurance about the origin and integrity of digital content is crucial not only in high security applications but also in everyday life scenarios such as providing proof that an X-ray image presented as part of an insurance claim is authentic, or a news clip is not tampered with. The outcomes of this project will significantly enhance trustworthiness of multimedia information systems which are increasingly used in areas such as surveillance (traffic control), health, digital content production and distribution, tourism and journalism. It will also result in the development of secure biometric authentication systems which are critical in securing cyber space.Read moreRead less
Trustworthy Sensor Networks: Theory and Implementation. The fundamental importance of this project is that we are developing algorithms for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that provide accurate and trustworthy data to Australian researchers and users, so that they have confidence in the analysis of their data. The algorithms developed in this proposal will become essential for any large scale WSN. The research significantly leverages the resources of our international partners who complement our ....Trustworthy Sensor Networks: Theory and Implementation. The fundamental importance of this project is that we are developing algorithms for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that provide accurate and trustworthy data to Australian researchers and users, so that they have confidence in the analysis of their data. The algorithms developed in this proposal will become essential for any large scale WSN. The research significantly leverages the resources of our international partners who complement our work with several million dollars of investment. The result will put Australia on the international stage as a significant contributor to WSN technologies. By training PhD students, the project will also enrich local expertise in the technologies.Read moreRead less
