The project provides a valuable opportunity to make significant impact on water resource management and create community partnerships that will go well beyond the lifetime of the project. The project is expected to contribute to improved water quality and healthier ecosystems. In turn, the scientifically rich research environment will benefit all involved. It will demonstrate the capability of the Australian researchers in addressing complex problems in data integration and quality. In particular there will be far reaching benefits of research training for associated PhD students and staff.Read moreRead less
Monitoring online topic evolvements with near-duplicate videos. This project will make a major impact on social media mining, and open up a new research direction for topic discovery. The project's advances will bring economic/social benefits to Australia, where collaborative access of large amount of Web/media information is vital, for example, data sharing and management, broadcasting, advertising, opinion gathering, etc.
Real-time and self-adaptive stream data analyser for intensive care management. The clinical benefit of this project will be in improved success rates and reduced mortality and risk in surgery and intensive care units. The Information and communication technology (ICT) benefit of this project is associated with the novel online algorithms and models aligned with the stream data research, and will be enhanced by our stream compression techniques. The stream data analyser developed in this projec ....Real-time and self-adaptive stream data analyser for intensive care management. The clinical benefit of this project will be in improved success rates and reduced mortality and risk in surgery and intensive care units. The Information and communication technology (ICT) benefit of this project is associated with the novel online algorithms and models aligned with the stream data research, and will be enhanced by our stream compression techniques. The stream data analyser developed in this project will be suitable for more than medical surveillance data; it will also improve the processing of other kinds of massive stream data (for example data from remote sensors, communication networks and other dynamic environments). The project involves a scientifically rich collaboration that will enhance the skills of PhD students and staff and drive the field forward.Read moreRead less

The research outcome of this project will directly benefit the following sectors: telecommunications, transportation, supply chain management, logistics, mobile computing, mobile e-commerce and marketing, air traffic control, defence, and so on, where efficient access to large amounts of highly mobile and distributed information is vital.Read moreRead less
Approaching the limits in Data Quality Management. The impact of data quality has acquired new heights in the current climate of global information systems, triggering the attention of researchers and software vendors. However, some fundamental questions are neglected in current solutions, allowing us to avail an opportunity to promote Australia's capability in developing cutting edge technologies that have the capacity to make dramatic impact on success of technology solutions. Focus on explori ....Approaching the limits in Data Quality Management. The impact of data quality has acquired new heights in the current climate of global information systems, triggering the attention of researchers and software vendors. However, some fundamental questions are neglected in current solutions, allowing us to avail an opportunity to promote Australia's capability in developing cutting edge technologies that have the capacity to make dramatic impact on success of technology solutions. Focus on exploring the limitations and providing a grounded understanding of data quality management has potential to significantly add to Australia's research profile. The project will also provide a conducive environment for students to gain high quality research experience. Read moreRead less
Learning human activities through low cost, unobtrusive RFID technology. A rapidly growing aged population presents many challenges to Australia's health and aged care services. The outcomes of this project will help aging Australians live in their own homes longer, with greater independence and safety by providing an automated, unobtrusive means for health professionals to monitor activity and intervene as required.
Detection of location significance from quality enhanced trajectory data. This project aims to develop effective and efficient methods to utilise large scale Global Positioning System, route and location data to provide individuals, business, government and social groups, the ability to assess the relative significance of locations and associated services, for use in applications such as transportation, logistics, public safety, tourism and utilities.
In-memory moving objects analytics for real-time business applications. This project aims to develop a novel computing foundation based on in-memory technologies to address significant challenges of big data and location-based business intelligence, building upon the well-recognised research excellence in spatiotemporal data management at the University of Queensland, and HANA, SAP's (Systems, Applications, Products in data processing) new in-memory analytics platform.
Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement and Provenance: The DEEP Approach to Data Quality Management Systems. The project proposes the Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement, Provenance (DEEP) approach to data quality management. The approach adopts a whole-of-data-cycle view towards addressing complex and emerging problems in data quality management and aims to develop novel and comprehensive mechanisms to improve data quality measurement, enforcement and monitoring. Due to the application-centric ....Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement and Provenance: The DEEP Approach to Data Quality Management Systems. The project proposes the Declaration, Exploration, Enhancement, Provenance (DEEP) approach to data quality management. The approach adopts a whole-of-data-cycle view towards addressing complex and emerging problems in data quality management and aims to develop novel and comprehensive mechanisms to improve data quality measurement, enforcement and monitoring. Due to the application-centric nature of DEEP, the outcomes from the project are expected to increase user understanding of data characteristics, improve interpretability of information derived from large, multi-source data sets and contribute to enhancement of data literacy levels in involved user communities.
