Robust Preference Inference from Spatial-Temporal Interaction Networks. This project aims to develop innovative techniques for effectively and efficiently managing user preference profiles from less labelled, sparse and noisy interaction data. A unified novel learning framework along with a set of data analysis techniques are expected to be developed from this project, which will provide a non-intrusive way of conducting predictive analysis on user preference profiling via discovering human expl ....Robust Preference Inference from Spatial-Temporal Interaction Networks. This project aims to develop innovative techniques for effectively and efficiently managing user preference profiles from less labelled, sparse and noisy interaction data. A unified novel learning framework along with a set of data analysis techniques are expected to be developed from this project, which will provide a non-intrusive way of conducting predictive analysis on user preference profiling via discovering human explicit and implicit interest domains. The expected results of this application will not only maintain Australia's leadership in this frontier research area, but also support many important applications that safeguard Australian people and economy such as cyber security, healthcare, and e-Commerce.Read moreRead less

Preventing railway suicide: An open-systems perspective. This project aims to develop an automated suicide risk detection system to reduce the incidence and impact of railway suicide, which has a devastating effect on victims’ families, station staff, train drivers, emergency workers, and bystanders. This project will use open-systems theory to develop two complementary information systems for more effective detection and reporting of suicide risk; use these systems to investigate how different situational factors interact with different combinations of service interventions to influence suicide risk; and share the findings to reduce railway suicide in Australia and overseas.Read moreRead less
