The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Bayesian learning for decision making in the big data era: This fellowship project aims to develop new techniques in evidence-based learning and decision-making in the big data era. Big data has arrived, and with it a huge global demand for statistical knowledge and skills to analyse these data for improved learning and decision-making. This project will seek to address this need by creating a step-change in knowledge in Bayesian statistics and translating this knowledge to real-world challenges in industry, environment and health. The new big data statistical analysts trained through the project could also create much needed capacity at national and international levels.Read moreRead less

Funding Amount
$1,814,346.00
Summary
New directions, new problems and new data types in statistical science. Statistically challenging problems today involve answering many more questions than we have data. Solving them will elucidate the causes of diseases such as cancer, and provide better security for the community. The project will develop new methods for tackling these challenging problems, taking statistical science in new directions.

Summary
New stochastic models for Science, Economics, Social Science and Engineering. Stochastic, or random, phenomena abound in society. This project will combine advancement of the theory of stochastic models at a deep level with application to problems arising in science, economics, social science and engineering, and outreach to educate members of the public about random processes of significance in their lives.

This project aims to develop a new paradigm in algorithm testing, creating novel test instances and tools to elicit insights into algorithm strengths and weaknesses. Such advances are urgently needed to support good research practice in academia, and to avoid disasters when deploying algorithms in practice. Extending our recent work in algorithm testing for combinatorial optimisation, described as 'ground-breaking,' this project aims to tackle the challenges needed to generalise the paradigm to other fields such as machine learning, forecasting, software testing, and other branches of optimisation. An online repository of test instances and tools aim to provide a valuable resource to improve research practice and support new insights into algorithm performance.Read moreRead less

Summary
Large-scale statistical machine learning. This research program aims to develop the science behind statistical decision problems as varied as web retrieval, genomic data analysis and financial portfolio optimisation. Advances will have a very significant practical impact in the many areas of science and technology that need to make sense of large, complex data streams.
