This project aims to develop a framework on energy big data analytics from security and privacy perspectives. Unlike other big data analytics such as social network big data analytics, energy big data analytics involve research challenges on how to cope with real-time tight cyber-physical couplings, and security/safety of the smart grid system. This project will develop advanced data-driven algorithms that are capable of detecting coordinated cyber-attacks that will potentially lead to catastrophic cascaded failures; and develop new solutions in detecting the false data-injection attacks that are conventionally considered as unobservable. This project will provide the benefit of enhancing our national critical infrastructure's security.Read moreRead less

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
