This project aims to enhance discovery, productivity and translation within and between disciplines in Australian research through better utilisation of big data. Advances in our ability to capture, store, process and analyse large data sets are transforming many parts of society, including the research sector. Machine learning, for example, will allow data-driven analysis of massive, unstructured data sets such as social media archives or financial records in ways that will shed new light on many complex research questions. This project will map existing capability and infrastructure within and across disciplines, identify common and discipline-specific practices, challenges and opportunities, and assess technology, infrastructure, training and collaboration priorities for Australia.
