Coupling Learning in Big Data. Big data features complex coupling relationships within and between diverse entities in various forms and layers. This fundamentally challenges existing learning theories, which usually assume that data is independent and identically distributed (IID). This indicates that such IID tools may either be inapplicable for big data or capture an incomplete or even biased picture of the ground truth in big data. Hence, this project aims to invent breakthrough theories and ....Coupling Learning in Big Data. Big data features complex coupling relationships within and between diverse entities in various forms and layers. This fundamentally challenges existing learning theories, which usually assume that data is independent and identically distributed (IID). This indicates that such IID tools may either be inapplicable for big data or capture an incomplete or even biased picture of the ground truth in big data. Hence, this project aims to invent breakthrough theories and effective tools for systematically modelling and learning sophisticated couplings embedded in big data applications. The outcomes are expected to enhance Australia's leading role in data science research and lift data intelligence-driven productivity and economic growth in a changing world.Read moreRead less
Active Management of Complex Non-self-finalising Behaviours through Deep Analytics. This project aims to build theoretical breakthroughs and novel tools for deep analytics and active management of non-self-finalising (NSF) individual and business behaviours, which are sophisticated and increasingly seen in public sectors such as taxation and business including banking and insurance. The challenging economic environment continues to make managing NSF behaviours difficult. To date, there are no su ....Active Management of Complex Non-self-finalising Behaviours through Deep Analytics. This project aims to build theoretical breakthroughs and novel tools for deep analytics and active management of non-self-finalising (NSF) individual and business behaviours, which are sophisticated and increasingly seen in public sectors such as taxation and business including banking and insurance. The challenging economic environment continues to make managing NSF behaviours difficult. To date, there are no sufficient theories or effective systems in data mining and behavioural science to systematically learn the intent, impact and patterns of NSF behaviours, and to suggest cost-effective responses to these behaviours. This project aims to ensure Australia’s leading role in innovation for evidence-driven enterprise behaviour analytics and management.Read moreRead less
Detecting significant changes in organisation-customer interactions leading to non-compliance. The instant detection of risky customer and/or group dynamics and business policy and/or process changes dispersed in normal interactions can avoid immense losses and inconsistent policies for Government and industries, such as preventing Centrelink customer debt. This project will deliver novel analytical techniques and smart information use to effectively detect the above-mentioned changes leading to ....Detecting significant changes in organisation-customer interactions leading to non-compliance. The instant detection of risky customer and/or group dynamics and business policy and/or process changes dispersed in normal interactions can avoid immense losses and inconsistent policies for Government and industries, such as preventing Centrelink customer debt. This project will deliver novel analytical techniques and smart information use to effectively detect the above-mentioned changes leading to non-compliance. It will enhance service quality, compliance, payment accuracy and policy design for the Australian Government and industries such as Centrelink, the Department of Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs (FaHCSIA), banking and insurance. The resulting systems, the researchers trained and resulting publications will significantly enhance Australia's leading role in tackling change-driven non-compliance.Read moreRead less

This project aims to reform superannuation investment practices in Australia. Using sophisticated data analytics and machine-learning techniques, combined with economic modelling and quantitative finance. The project will try to understand the broad characteristics of Australian superannuation investors and their practice from a ‘big data’ perspective. The expected outcomes of this project are the identification of key determinants for successful superannuation behaviour to inform decision-making for better superannuation practices and policies. It is expected that the insights arising from this project will contribute to safeguarding the future of Australia’s superannuation schemes, and to better financial security at retirement.Read moreRead less

Summary
Next generation acoustic sensor arrays for super resolution imaging. This project aims to develop a new type of acoustic lens that enhances incoherent sensing. This compressive acoustic sensing approach will achieve super-resolution imaging that is robust to noise. The technology has diverse applications including medical imaging, petroleum prospecting, sonar and acoustic holography and will lead to new technology for Australia.
Modelling graph-of-graphs for solving document categorisation problems. Documents in the World Wide Web, such as scientific documents, exhibit a referencing structure as well as being structured objects themselves. This project addresses some inherent limitations of existing modelling techniques in order to improve on the quality of results, and to allow the addressing of some unsolved problems involving documents.
