Diagnosis and prediction of business process deviances. This project aims to develop an innovative approach based on process execution semantics, to analyse event data logged by IT systems in order to diagnose and predict business process deviance. Anticipated outcomes include novel business intelligence algorithms producing deviance diagnostics, predictions and recommendations and exposing results via interactive visual analytics. The outcomes are expected to aid process workers in steering bus ....Diagnosis and prediction of business process deviances. This project aims to develop an innovative approach based on process execution semantics, to analyse event data logged by IT systems in order to diagnose and predict business process deviance. Anticipated outcomes include novel business intelligence algorithms producing deviance diagnostics, predictions and recommendations and exposing results via interactive visual analytics. The outcomes are expected to aid process workers in steering business operations towards consistent and compliant outcomes and higher performance, and assist analysts and auditors to explain deviant operations. This should significantly benefit industries such as healthcare, insurance, retail and the government where compliance and integrity management are imperative.Read moreRead less
Developing Adversary-Aware Classifiers for Android Malware Detection. Smartphones have become increasingly ubiquitous in people’s everyday life. However, it was reported that one in every five Android applications were actually malware, considering that Android has taken 88% market share of mobile phones. As an effective technique, machine learning has been widely adopted to detect Android malware. However, recent work suggests that deliberately-crafted malware makes machine learning ineffective ....Developing Adversary-Aware Classifiers for Android Malware Detection. Smartphones have become increasingly ubiquitous in people’s everyday life. However, it was reported that one in every five Android applications were actually malware, considering that Android has taken 88% market share of mobile phones. As an effective technique, machine learning has been widely adopted to detect Android malware. However, recent work suggests that deliberately-crafted malware makes machine learning ineffective. In this project, we propose to develop a series of new techniques, such as 1) Android contextual analysis, 2) wrapper-based hill climbing algorithm, and 3) ensemble learning, to solve this problem. The outcomes will help Australia gain cutting edge technologies in adversarial machine learning and mobile security.Read moreRead less
Stream Data Classification in the Age of 5G Networks. This project aims to develop a novel stream data classification model to handle the challenges in the era of 5G networks, such as the scope of the stream data, the complexity of their relationship, the diversity of contained information and the incorrect readings of numerous sensors. The project addresses a significant knowledge gap by exploring and modelling the stronger correlation between data instances in the streams. The outcome is a sys ....Stream Data Classification in the Age of 5G Networks. This project aims to develop a novel stream data classification model to handle the challenges in the era of 5G networks, such as the scope of the stream data, the complexity of their relationship, the diversity of contained information and the incorrect readings of numerous sensors. The project addresses a significant knowledge gap by exploring and modelling the stronger correlation between data instances in the streams. The outcome is a system that is highly efficient, accurate and corrupted-data-tolerant classification solutions for individual stream data as well as multiple stream data. The expected benefits will be far-ranging and adaptable to many domains, such as smart home, medical and healthcare, transportation and manufacturing. Read moreRead less
