Fast, practical and effective algorithms for clustering with advice. To maintain a safe and healthy society, government and industry need high quality immunization and national security databases. Since we cannot afford to have duplicate, incomplete and conflicting records that refer to the same person, we unify them by identifying clusters of related records.
In the emerging field of functional genomics, diagnosis of certain diseases is enhanced by determining which genes act together.

To maintain a safe and healthy society, government and industry need high quality immunization and national security databases. Since we cannot afford to have duplicate, incomplete and conflicting records that refer to the same person, we unify them by identifying clusters of related records.
In the emerging field of functional genomics, diagnosis of certain diseases is enhanced by determining which genes act together. Different experimental runs might result in different clusterings of genes: we need one consensus clustering that summarizes the experimental outcomes.
Cleaning databases and combining clusterings by hand would require vast amounts of time. This project will result in faster and more accurate computational procedures.Read moreRead less

Optimal Deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks. Wireless sensor networks consist of coordinated sensing devices that offer us new ways to understand and interact with the physical world. Australia is a leading player in developing such networks. For a given technology, the key to both optimising the quality of area monitoring and minimising the cost of a sensor network lies in deciding how best to deploy the sensors. We aim to develop powerful new methods to get the best performance from a plann ....Optimal Deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks. Wireless sensor networks consist of coordinated sensing devices that offer us new ways to understand and interact with the physical world. Australia is a leading player in developing such networks. For a given technology, the key to both optimising the quality of area monitoring and minimising the cost of a sensor network lies in deciding how best to deploy the sensors. We aim to develop powerful new methods to get the best performance from a planned sensor network. This will enhance Australia's research role in this area and directly benefit applications such as national security and environmental monitoring.

Research on the generalized information fusion will lead to better surveillance,monitoring & situational awareness technologies that will significantly enhance our national security and contribute to the strategic directions set by the Nation. It will deliver generic integrated uncertainty reasoning models, algorithms and implementations and will lead to enhanced interoperation capability across multiple collaborating organizations that have surveillance and situational awareness as their prime responsibilities (defence, police and the road transport authority). It will position the nation to use its relatively small defence force to maximum effectiveness in combating terrorism, crime and natural disasters like Tsunami & Earth quakes.
