Advancing Human Perception: Countering Evolving Malicious Fake Visual Data. The aim of this project is to provide new effective and generalisable deepfake detection methods for automatically detecting maliciously manipulated visual data generated by misused artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. It will present innovative computer vision and image processing knowledge and techniques, enabling the developed methods to advance human perception in recognising fake data, enhance cybersecurity, and ....Advancing Human Perception: Countering Evolving Malicious Fake Visual Data. The aim of this project is to provide new effective and generalisable deepfake detection methods for automatically detecting maliciously manipulated visual data generated by misused artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. It will present innovative computer vision and image processing knowledge and techniques, enabling the developed methods to advance human perception in recognising fake data, enhance cybersecurity, and protect privacy in AI applications. The anticipated outcomes should provide significant benefits to a wide range of applications, such as providing timely alerts to the media, government organisations, and the industry about misleading fake visual data, and preventing financial crimes on synthetic identity fraud.Read moreRead less
Exploiting Geometries of Learning for Fast, Adaptive and Robust AI. This project aims to uniquely exploit geometric manifolds in deep learning to advance the frontier of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research and applications in cybersecurity and general cognitive tasks. It expects to develop new theories, algorithms, tools, and technologies for machine learning systems that are fast, adaptive, lifelong and robust, even with limited supervision. Expected outcomes will enhance Australia's capabili ....Exploiting Geometries of Learning for Fast, Adaptive and Robust AI. This project aims to uniquely exploit geometric manifolds in deep learning to advance the frontier of Artificial Intelligence (AI) research and applications in cybersecurity and general cognitive tasks. It expects to develop new theories, algorithms, tools, and technologies for machine learning systems that are fast, adaptive, lifelong and robust, even with limited supervision. Expected outcomes will enhance Australia's capability and competitiveness in AI, and deliver robust and trustworthy learning technology. The project should provide significant benefits not only in advancing scientific and translational knowledge but also in accelerating AI innovations, safeguarding cyberspace, and reducing the burden on defence expenses in Australia.Read moreRead less

Summary
Glass-box Deep Machine Perception for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. Explainability and Transparency are the key values for development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Australia’s AI Ethics Framework for industry and governments. This project aims to build new tools to make the central technology of AI - deep learning - transparent and explainable. Its expected outputs are novel theory-driven algorithms and unconventional foundational blocks for deep learning that will al ....Glass-box Deep Machine Perception for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. Explainability and Transparency are the key values for development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Australia’s AI Ethics Framework for industry and governments. This project aims to build new tools to make the central technology of AI - deep learning - transparent and explainable. Its expected outputs are novel theory-driven algorithms and unconventional foundational blocks for deep learning that will allow humans to clearly interpret the reasoning process of this technology, which is currently not possible. It is expected to significantly advance our knowledge in machine intelligence and perception. Due to their fundamental nature, the project outcomes are likely to benefit industry and scientific frontiers alike.Read moreRead less
