Stochastic Geometry for Multi-sensor Data Fusion System. The aim of this project is to develop efficient algorithms for tracking and sensor management in a multi-sensor multi-target environment. Finite random set theory provides a natural way of representing a random number of (random) object states, an issue that has been largely ignored in the tracking literature until recently. Although a satisfactory foundation for multiple object filtering has been provided by random set theory, in this ear ....Stochastic Geometry for Multi-sensor Data Fusion System. The aim of this project is to develop efficient algorithms for tracking and sensor management in a multi-sensor multi-target environment. Finite random set theory provides a natural way of representing a random number of (random) object states, an issue that has been largely ignored in the tracking literature until recently. Although a satisfactory foundation for multiple object filtering has been provided by random set theory, in this early stage no algorithm capable of tracking many targets has emerged from this framework. We are confident that efficient algorithms can be developed by exploiting the insights and mathematical tools of stochastic geometryRead moreRead less

This project aims to shape the next generation of efficient randomised algorithms in the field of group theory, the mathematics of symmetry. Fundamental mathematics underpins modern technological tasks such as web searches, sorting and data compression. This project aims to determine characteristic statistical fingerprints of key building-block groups. These group statistics lead to much faster procedures to essentially factor huge groups into smaller building-block groups in a manner akin to factoring an integer into its prime factors. The anticipated goal is to include the outcomes in publicly available symbolic algebra computer packages. As the theory of symmetry has broad applications in the mathematical and physical sciences, there is the potential for far reaching benefits.Read moreRead less

Exact structure in graphs and matroids. One of the main goals of mathematics is to understand and describe the structure of the mathematical world. This project will contribute to this goal, and deepen our understanding of the fundamental mathematical structures called graphs and matroids, by providing exact structural descriptions of a number of important minor-closed classes.
Real chromatic roots of graphs and matroids. This project will develop the theory of real chromatic roots of graphs, especially as it applies to minor-closed classes of graphs, with the aim of extending this theory to minor-closed classes of matroids. One of the fundamental results from the study of real chromatic roots in graph theory is that any minor-closed class of graphs has an absolute upper bound on its chromatic roots. However, while many results on minor-closed classes on graphs have cl ....Real chromatic roots of graphs and matroids. This project will develop the theory of real chromatic roots of graphs, especially as it applies to minor-closed classes of graphs, with the aim of extending this theory to minor-closed classes of matroids. One of the fundamental results from the study of real chromatic roots in graph theory is that any minor-closed class of graphs has an absolute upper bound on its chromatic roots. However, while many results on minor-closed classes on graphs have close analogues or mild variants for minor-closed classes of matroids, this upper bound on real chromatic roots appears, somewhat mysteriously, to apply only to graphs. By studying the upper root-free intervals of minor-closed classes of matroids, this project aims to shed light on this phenomenon.Read moreRead less
