Advancing Human Perception: Countering Evolving Malicious Fake Visual Data. The aim of this project is to provide new effective and generalisable deepfake detection methods for automatically detecting maliciously manipulated visual data generated by misused artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. It will present innovative computer vision and image processing knowledge and techniques, enabling the developed methods to advance human perception in recognising fake data, enhance cybersecurity, and ....Advancing Human Perception: Countering Evolving Malicious Fake Visual Data. The aim of this project is to provide new effective and generalisable deepfake detection methods for automatically detecting maliciously manipulated visual data generated by misused artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. It will present innovative computer vision and image processing knowledge and techniques, enabling the developed methods to advance human perception in recognising fake data, enhance cybersecurity, and protect privacy in AI applications. The anticipated outcomes should provide significant benefits to a wide range of applications, such as providing timely alerts to the media, government organisations, and the industry about misleading fake visual data, and preventing financial crimes on synthetic identity fraud.Read moreRead less

Summary
Glass-box Deep Machine Perception for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. Explainability and Transparency are the key values for development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Australia’s AI Ethics Framework for industry and governments. This project aims to build new tools to make the central technology of AI - deep learning - transparent and explainable. Its expected outputs are novel theory-driven algorithms and unconventional foundational blocks for deep learning that will al ....Glass-box Deep Machine Perception for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. Explainability and Transparency are the key values for development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Australia’s AI Ethics Framework for industry and governments. This project aims to build new tools to make the central technology of AI - deep learning - transparent and explainable. Its expected outputs are novel theory-driven algorithms and unconventional foundational blocks for deep learning that will allow humans to clearly interpret the reasoning process of this technology, which is currently not possible. It is expected to significantly advance our knowledge in machine intelligence and perception. Due to their fundamental nature, the project outcomes are likely to benefit industry and scientific frontiers alike.Read moreRead less
Responsible modelling respecting privacy, data quality, and green computing. With the unprecedented growing impact of data on science, the economy and society, there comes the need for responsible data science practices which are accountable for the social good.

With the unprecedented growing impact of data on science, the economy and society, there comes the need for responsible data science practices which are accountable for the social good. This project aims to investigate the challenging problem of how to provide responsible data management, spanning across privacy-aware data exploration, resilient modelling to cope with imperfect data, and efficient model architectures for resource-constrained environments. This will be achieved by developing theories and techniques for complex real-world multi-modal data retrieval throughout the data life-cycle. The expected outcomes will significantly contribute to building capability in emerging technologies in the context of responsible data science. Read moreRead less
