Indexes Allowing Fast and Efficient Text Search. Since the arrival of search engines such as Google, it has become an expectation that we can find a few words in a very large amount of text very quickly. This is also true of biologists, who expect to be able to submit protein sequences for matching against a massive database and retrieve and answer in seconds. If successful, this project will invent fundamental software that will allow the discovery of words in text much more quickly, and using ....Indexes Allowing Fast and Efficient Text Search.

This is also true of biologists, who expect to be able to submit protein sequences for matching against a massive database and retrieve and answer in seconds. If successful, this project will invent fundamental software that will allow the discovery of words in text much more quickly, and using less computing resources than current methods. The benefits of this technology to the searching public, scientists, and industry will be immediate as productivity will be improved and costs reduced.Read moreRead less

Summary
International data exchange for global gravitational wave astronomy. The aim is to develop software tools to efficiently combine and share large gravitational wave datasets from around the world, leveraging existing data grid and replication technologies (Globus and LDR). This will greatly improve the access of Australian scientists to gravitational wave data, thereby facilitating gravitational wave science in this country.
New approaches to interactive sessional search for complex tasks. This project aims to develop new tools and techniques to improve the accuracy and speed of search and data analytics for complex information tasks. There are currently no publicly available search engines which support users engaged in complex interactive search, or that allow searchers to fully control their own data and privacy. Fundamental research advances, based on understanding real user behaviour and search needs will have ....New approaches to interactive sessional search for complex tasks. This project aims to develop new tools and techniques to improve the accuracy and speed of search and data analytics for complex information tasks. There are currently no publicly available search engines which support users engaged in complex interactive search, or that allow searchers to fully control their own data and privacy. Fundamental research advances, based on understanding real user behaviour and search needs will have an impact on important academic, industrial, and government domains, including virtual assistants, health care (clinical decision support), precision medicine, eDiscovery, crime prevention, and detailed socio-economic evaluations.Read moreRead less
Efficient Techniques for Mining Exceptional Patterns. This research will develop totally new techniques for exceptional pattern discovery that are useful for deeper understanding data mining and capturing the hidden interactions (class-bridge rules and out-expectation patterns) within data. This will enable Australian data marketers to access valuable implicit information that is contained in their data, but not currently accessible. The outcomes will keep Australia in the international leading ....Efficient Techniques for Mining Exceptional Patterns. This research will develop totally new techniques for exceptional pattern discovery that are useful for deeper understanding data mining and capturing the hidden interactions (class-bridge rules and out-expectation patterns) within data. This will enable Australian data marketers to access valuable implicit information that is contained in their data, but not currently accessible. The outcomes will keep Australia in the international leading edge and preserve its competitive status in preemptively defining the information market of tomorrow. To 'Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries', discovering new exceptional patterns within data will lead to increased efficiency in Australian Industries.Read moreRead less
Efficient Strategies for Mining Negative Association Rules. Negative association rules (NAR) catch mutually-exclusive correlations
among items. They play important roles just as traditional association
rules (TAR) do. For example, in stock market surveillance based on alert logs, NARs detect which alerts are false. There are essential differences between mining TARs and NARs because NARs are hidden in infrequent itemsets. This research will develop efficient strategies for mining NARs in datab ....Efficient Strategies for Mining Negative Association Rules.

rules (TAR) do. For example, in stock market surveillance based on alert logs, NARs detect which alerts are false. There are essential differences between mining TARs and NARs because NARs are hidden in infrequent itemsets. This research will develop efficient strategies for mining NARs in databases. These strategies are expected to be about ten times faster than existing ones. This project will deliver database-independent and high-performance mining algorithms for decision-making. The results can benefit Australian marketing and financial companies as well as health and security departments for smart information use.Read moreRead less
Multiple Data Source Discovery: Group Interaction Approach. This project will develop new technology and theory to identify and evaluate incomplete data. It will deliver a high-performance group-interaction based global pattern discovery system that enables decision-makers (like doctors) to access valuable implicit information that is contained in their data but not currently accessible. Mining group interactions will greatly extend the scope of pattern discovery and new product evaluation. The ....Multiple Data Source Discovery: Group Interaction Approach.

Effective Techniques and Methodologies for Multi-Database Mining. This project develops a high-performance multi-database mining system. This project is significant because (1) it is imperative due to a great deal of multi-databases widely used in organizations; (2) it is difficult due to essential differences between mono- and multi-databases; (3) existing multi-database mining techniques are inadequate; and (4) the new mining strategies in this project can make a vast improvement of the abilit ....Effective Techniques and Methodologies for Multi-Database Mining.

This project is significant because (1) it is imperative due to a great deal of multi-databases widely used in organizations; (2) it is difficult due to essential differences between mono- and multi-databases; (3) existing multi-database mining techniques are inadequate; and (4) the new mining strategies in this project can make a vast improvement of the ability and performance of multi-database mining systems. The expected outcomes are: an application-independent database classification, a local instance analysis and a prototype system. These proposed techniques are innovative, effective and efficient in identifying novel patterns from multi-databases.Read moreRead less
