A theoretical framework for practical partial fingerprint identification. Fingerprints captured from a crime scene are often partial and poor quality which makes it difficult to identify the criminal suspects from large databases. This project will find mathematical models which can estimate the missing information located in the blank areas of a partial fingerprint and effectively identify it.
Efficient structure search over large graphs. The project aims to develop advanced search technology to support large-scale graph applications. The success of the project not only brings a breakthrough in technology development but also provides training for high quality personnel in this important and growing area, and brings considerable economic and social benefits to Australia.
