Uncertainty quantification using type-2 fuzzy systems. This project will develop new interval type-2 fuzzy logic system-based tools for quantifying uncertainties present in complex systems. The outcome of this project will greatly help all Australian industries and organisations that directly or indirectly use model-based estimation for prediction and forecasting purposes.
Quantification, optimisation, and application of deep uncertainty. This project aims to develop a framework for deep uncertainty quantification. There is currently a fundamental gap between deep learning research and the methods required to quantify and manage uncertainties. The research will propose a novel distribution-free methodology to generate deep predictive uncertainty estimates to avoid the assumptions of existing methods. The quality of estimates will be enhanced by applying an interva ....Quantification, optimisation, and application of deep uncertainty. This project aims to develop a framework for deep uncertainty quantification. There is currently a fundamental gap between deep learning research and the methods required to quantify and manage uncertainties. The research will propose a novel distribution-free methodology to generate deep predictive uncertainty estimates to avoid the assumptions of existing methods. The quality of estimates will be enhanced by applying an interval-based adversarial training step. The project is expected to help data-driven Australian organisations and industries to better quantify and manage forecasting uncertainties. This project will provide them with significant cost savings through better decision making and more robust planning.Read moreRead less
Personalised public transport. This project aims to address urban congestion by utilising people’s travel plans to coordinate journeys. The project expects to generate new knowledge in scalable optimisation, based on innovative modelling of urban transport, and tested on historical data from Melbourne. The expected outcomes of the project are an active transport database and optimised mode choice and routing system, with predicted reductions in congestion based on simulation of its use. This pro ....Personalised public transport. This project aims to address urban congestion by utilising people’s travel plans to coordinate journeys. The project expects to generate new knowledge in scalable optimisation, based on innovative modelling of urban transport, and tested on historical data from Melbourne. The expected outcomes of the project are an active transport database and optimised mode choice and routing system, with predicted reductions in congestion based on simulation of its use. This project aims to design an urban trip advisory system that could be followed by automated vehicles as well as human drivers, to reduce the financial and environmental cost of current urban congestion.Read moreRead less

Summary
A virtual platform for animal–human inhalation toxicity extrapolation. This project aims to remove the long-lasting barrier in extrapolating data from animals to humans by developing an integrated virtual platform. This project expects to fully resolve inhalation exposure differences in nasal airways between commonly used animal surrogates and humans, which could lay scientific underpinnings in developing rigorous interspecies data conversion schemes. Expected outcomes include a versatile inhala ....A virtual platform for animal–human inhalation toxicity extrapolation. This project aims to remove the long-lasting barrier in extrapolating data from animals to humans by developing an integrated virtual platform. This project expects to fully resolve inhalation exposure differences in nasal airways between commonly used animal surrogates and humans, which could lay scientific underpinnings in developing rigorous interspecies data conversion schemes. Expected outcomes include a versatile inhalation exposure risk assessment tool that can be implemented for any airway compartment, enhanced reliability of animal tests, reduced number of animals for testing. This should provide significant benefits in improving occupational health and safety and promoting National/International regulatory changes. Read moreRead less

Summary
A multi-scale risk assessment platform for inhaled carbon nanotubes. This project aims to develop a coherent risk assessment platform to evaluate human respiratory exposure to carbon nanotubes. Compared to the exponential growth of carbon nanotubes technology, capability of inhalation risk assessment is lagging. The project expects to generate new knowledge on the unique role and risk of carbon nanotube geometry. It will develop a new transport model and create a unified risk assessment.

Compared to the exponential growth of carbon nanotubes technology, capability of inhalation risk assessment is lagging. The project expects to generate new knowledge on the unique role and risk of carbon nanotube geometry. It will develop a new transport model and create a unified risk assessment. The expected outcome is the enhanced risk assessment capability of human exposure to carbon nanotubes, which will provide a significant benefit to the nanotechnology industry through ensuring safety in developing an emergent technology.Read moreRead less
