This project aims to develop novel efficient and effective models and techniques that enable record linkage of large dynamic databases while preserving the privacy of sensitive personal data. Social genomes are the digital footprints of our society. They are the basis of population informatics, which is revolutionising how researchers in various domains conduct studies, governments plan services and expenditures, and businesses advertise and interact with their customers. A core requirement of population informatics is the linking of large dynamic databases that contain details about people from diverse sources. The expected outcomes of this project will provide novel solutions to the challenges of population informatics faced by Australian organisations.Read moreRead less
Privacy-preserving record linkage on multiple large databases. Record linkage has been recognised as a crucial infrastructure component in many information systems, however privacy concerns commonly prevent the linking of databases that contain personal information. This project will develop techniques that will enable the linking of multiple large databases without revealing any private information.
Artificial intelligence meets wireless sensor networks: filling the gaps between sensors using spatial reasoning. Monitoring potential disaster regions and integrating available information with expert knowledge can prevent disasters and save many lives. The outcome of our project is one of the key components for intelligent systems that can autonomously monitor the environment, make the correct inferences and issue appropriate warnings and recommendations.
