This project aims to design and develop a data driven paradigm for service-oriented system engineering that allows system engineers and domain experts in different domains to build software systems easily in order to enable fast technology transfer within and across domain boundaries. This model integrates and automates a suite of efficient approaches for system structure determination, validation and recommendation based on keyword search, subgraph isomorphism and substructure query techniques. This project is expected to significantly accelerate the application of new technologies, for example, big data analytics and Internet of Things, in many of Australia's critical domains such as e-Health, smart cities, and cybersecurity.Read moreRead less

A hardware accellerated platform for high-fidelity, high speed simulation of infrared scenes. Missiles present a major military and terrorist threat to aircraft and ships. A possible method to detect them is an infrared imaging system which is sensitive to a missile's spectrally unique rocket propulsion exhaust. It is both dangerous and expensive to conduct field trials; so simulation is used extensively.

Missiles present a major military and terrorist threat to aircraft and ships. A possible method to detect them is an infrared imaging system which is sensitive to a missile's spectrally unique rocket propulsion exhaust. It is both dangerous and expensive to conduct field trials; so simulation is used extensively. This project aims to use high performance computing to accelerate the slowest parts of the industrial partner's existing simulations: the generation of simulated infrared images.
This project will improve the competitiveness of the manufacturer of infrared threat and warning systems and provide research training in an area of high performance computing.

Simulation and verification of system-level specifications of requirements and constraints using Rosetta. Modern computer-based systems comprise a mixture of electronic hardware and embedded computer software that interacts with mechanical and other non-electrical subsystems. Future design capability will depend on being able to model the requirements and constraints of heterogeneous systems, so that they can be simulated and formally verified before being manufactured and deployed.

Modern computer-based systems comprise a mixture of electronic hardware and embedded computer software that interacts with mechanical and other non-electrical subsystems. Future design capability will depend on being able to model the requirements and constraints of heterogeneous systems, so that they can be simulated and formally verified before being manufactured and deployed. This project will develop techniques and software tools for simulation and verification based on the new Rosetta system-level design language. These tools will make the design of complex computer-based systems faster, more reliable and less costly by minimizing design errors early in the design flow.Read moreRead less
Learning to see in 3D. The project aims to endow machine vision with an ability we, as humans, use almost constantly: to judge 3D properties from a 2D image. This extremely useful ability will be applied to digital images to obtain 3D measurements and aid in automating tasks such as mining, surveying, medical diagnosis, and visual effects in movies.
Recognising and reconstructing objects in real time from a moving camera. This project will use a moving camera to estimate the three-dimensional shape and identity of objects and surfaces it can see. This ability, which we humans use all the time, has wide application in automation including driver assistance, exploring hazardous environments, robotics, remote collaboration, and the creation of three-dimensional models for entertainment.
Optimal Robust Fitting under the Framework of LP-Type Problems. The project aims to develop algorithms to support the development of robust and accurate computer vision systems. Real-world visual data (images, videos) is inherently noisy and outlier prone.

The project aims to develop algorithms to support the development of robust and accurate computer vision systems. Real-world visual data (images, videos) is inherently noisy and outlier prone. To build computer vision systems that work reliably in the real world, it is necessary to ensure that the underlying algorithms are robust and efficient. The project aims to devise novel algorithms that can compute the best possible result given the input data in a short amount of time. The expected outcomes would support the construction of reliable and accurate computer vision-based systems, such as large-scale 3-D reconstruction from photo collections, self-driving cars and domestic robots.Read moreRead less

Summary
Lifelong computer vision systems. This project will create a computer vision system that can produce a detailed environmental map in real time, turning standard video cameras into sensors that 'understand' a scene with basic semantic tools. This high-level sensing will unlock a wide range of applications for autonomous systems.
Whole image understanding by convolutions on graphs. This project seeks to develop technologies that will help computer vision interpret the whole visible scene, rather than just some of the objects therein. Existing automated methods for understanding images perform well at recognising specific objects in canonical poses, but the problem of whole image interpretation is far more challenging. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have underpinned recent progress in object recognition, but whole-im ....Whole image understanding by convolutions on graphs. This project seeks to develop technologies that will help computer vision interpret the whole visible scene, rather than just some of the objects therein. Existing automated methods for understanding images perform well at recognising specific objects in canonical poses, but the problem of whole image interpretation is far more challenging. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have underpinned recent progress in object recognition, but whole-image understanding cannot be tackled similarly because the number of possible combinations of objects is too large. The project thus proposes a graph-based generalisation of the CNN approach which allows scene structure to be learned explicitly. This would represent an important step towards providing computers with robust vision, allowing them to interact with their environment.Read moreRead less
