New digital deep-time exploration tools for a low-emissions economy. Demand for critical minerals will soar as renewable energy generation increases, but exploration companies currently cannot take full advantage of available exploration data in an Earth evolution context. This project will generate new knowledge in big and complex geodata analysis using an innovative data mining approach. It will enable Lithodat, a small enterprise, to perform cloud-based plate tectonic reconstruction, visualis ....New digital deep-time exploration tools for a low-emissions economy. Demand for critical minerals will soar as renewable energy generation increases, but exploration companies currently cannot take full advantage of available exploration data in an Earth evolution context. This project will generate new knowledge in big and complex geodata analysis using an innovative data mining approach. It will enable Lithodat, a small enterprise, to perform cloud-based plate tectonic reconstruction, visualisation and spatio-temporal analysis of geodata for resource exploration. The outcomes include an enhanced capacity to generate ore prospectivity maps and an improved understanding of their tectonic, geochemical, and geophysical signatures, benefiting Lithodat and their clients in the search for new mineral deposits.Read moreRead less
A personalised social network based location search and recommender system. Inspired by the advance and popularity of social networks, this project will investigate new personalised recommendation techniques in social networks. Mobile services will be developed for users to search and obtain recommendations as they wish based on their social relationships and behaviour in the social group.
Enriching digital history: new approaches to content development and delivery using the Dictionary of Sydney. The project will maximise the value of public investment in digital history resources by developing new methods of sharing and re-using content between systems and inviting and managing community participation. It will develop methods of preserving the community's investment in history exhibitions after they are taken down, and promote engagement with Sydney's history through delivery of ....Enriching digital history: new approaches to content development and delivery using the Dictionary of Sydney. The project will maximise the value of public investment in digital history resources by developing new methods of sharing and re-using content between systems and inviting and managing community participation. It will develop methods of preserving the community's investment in history exhibitions after they are taken down, and promote engagement with Sydney's history through delivery of historical information on “smartphones” in situ within the city. It will generate new content for, and reduce content development costs for a major public resource, the Dictionary of Sydney, and showcase Australian Humanities eResearch by delivering new approaches to content creation and delivery which will be of value to the international research community.Read moreRead less
Mining multi-typed and dynamic graphs. Large volumes of data collected nowadays from real-world applications are often represented as graphs. The nodes and the edges of such graphs represent different types of entities and interactions, and they have time information. This project will develop algorithms that mine efficiently such multi-typed and dynamic graphs.
Virtual Galleries: new media technologies to influence livelihood and arts participation in remote communities of the Northern Territory, Australia. The Virtual Galleries project addresses the issue of limited economic development in remote communities by introducing a user-controlled webcam and interactive 3-D (three-dimensional) Art Galleries into remote art centres to help people in remote communities to secure an income and create wealth and social wellbeing for themselves, their families an ....Virtual Galleries: new media technologies to influence livelihood and arts participation in remote communities of the Northern Territory, Australia.

Developing an effective defence to cyber-reputation manipulation attacks. This project will develop new technologies for businesses to accurately identify fake internet reviews. Fake reviews, paid for and/or written with malicious intent, can cause irreparable damage to businesses resulting in revenue loss, consumer dissatisfaction or even closure of businesses. However they are difficult to identify, as they continuously evolve to avoid detection and the volume of Internet reviews makes analysi ....Developing an effective defence to cyber-reputation manipulation attacks. This project will develop new technologies for businesses to accurately identify fake internet reviews. Fake reviews, paid for and/or written with malicious intent, can cause irreparable damage to businesses resulting in revenue loss, consumer dissatisfaction or even closure of businesses. However they are difficult to identify, as they continuously evolve to avoid detection and the volume of Internet reviews makes analysis a monumental task. This project will provide advanced tools to detect fake website reviews and a cybersecurity system prototype ready to be used by industry, making Australia a leader in this field and resulting in a safer internet environment for all.Read moreRead less
