Modelling and estimation methods for discrete multi-dimensional systems. Multi-dimensional signal processing plays a role in a variety of application areas, ranging from remote sensing for environmental monitoring and geological mapping, to medical imaging and the automatic control of industrial processes. The success of the project will provide mathematical tools for the advancement of the state-of-the-art in these broad areas.
A Computational Study of Nonconvex and Nonlinear Semi-infinite Optimisation Problems in Signal Processing. The operation of filtering is an important part of most modern communication engineering systems. Many important problems, which arise naturally from communications engineering applications, can be formulated as nonconvex optimization problems and nonlinear semi-infinite and/or semi-definite optimization problems. New optimization theory, in combination with novel computationally efficient ....A Computational Study of Nonconvex and Nonlinear Semi-infinite Optimisation Problems in Signal Processing. The operation of filtering is an important part of most modern communication engineering systems. Many important problems, which arise naturally from communications engineering applications, can be formulated as nonconvex optimization problems and nonlinear semi-infinite and/or semi-definite optimization problems. New optimization theory, in combination with novel computationally efficient solution methods, and efficient hardware implementation will be developed. The outcomes will enhance Australia's reputation in this cutting edge research and facilitate opportunity for international collaboration as well as commercial opportunity. The project will also provide an excellent environment for the training of junior researchers in the area.Read moreRead less
Multi-object Estimation for Live-Cell Microscopy. The objective of this project is to develop new tools for the inference of biological information from live-cell data to facilitate analysis of experiments and speed up discovery in cell biology. The new tools would provide reliable, consistent inference requiring no manual intervention and able to process large volumes of data in a timely manner. This would equip biologists with a vehicle that could move them closer to the goal of understanding ....Multi-object Estimation for Live-Cell Microscopy.

Signal separation and tracking for augmented hearables and wearables. This project aims to develop augmentation technology in hearables, via solutions for source separation and tracking. Hearing is one of the five human senses. Augmented hearables or wearable devices with augmented hearing would extend and enhance hearing. New hearables could enable clear and natural hearing aids, suppress a partner’s snores, alert the wearer to the sounds of pending danger, and even perform automatic in-ear lan ....Signal separation and tracking for augmented hearables and wearables.
