A Data-Centric Mobile Edge Platform for Resilient Logistics & Supply Chain. This project aims to develop a secure mobile edge computing platform for resilient logistic and supply chain management. It consists of easy-used functions that help businesses realise low latency, high reliability, low cost, and high security in their logistics and supply chain system. To cope with the vast generated application data, we invent new data replication, placement, and deduplication techniques to optimise th ....A Data-Centric Mobile Edge Platform for Resilient Logistics & Supply Chain. This project aims to develop a secure mobile edge computing platform for resilient logistic and supply chain management. It consists of easy-used functions that help businesses realise low latency, high reliability, low cost, and high security in their logistics and supply chain system. To cope with the vast generated application data, we invent new data replication, placement, and deduplication techniques to optimise the mobile edge computing platform from the computation, storage, and network aspects. The invented mobile edge computing platform will enable more intelligent business applications for various industries, e.g., IT, manufacturing, and media, to appear, thus benefiting both the economy of Australia.Read moreRead less
Collaborative Sensing and Learning for Maritime Situational Awareness. We aim to demonstrate coordinated autonomous sensing of naval assets in dynamic maritime environments, reducing the operational load required to deliver a high quality maritime situational awareness. A realistic simulation based approach will help us develop novel artificial intelligence technology including: self-adaptive strategies for dynamic asset allocation, embedded smart sensing capabilities for naval observation syste ....Collaborative Sensing and Learning for Maritime Situational Awareness. We aim to demonstrate coordinated autonomous sensing of naval assets in dynamic maritime environments, reducing the operational load required to deliver a high quality maritime situational awareness. A realistic simulation based approach will help us develop novel artificial intelligence technology including: self-adaptive strategies for dynamic asset allocation, embedded smart sensing capabilities for naval observation systems and novel approaches to continuous collaborative learning from multi-spectral media. In addition to the emerging partnership between participants, the project will advance sovereign capability to develop maritime intelligence gathering technology for the Royal Australian Navy to underpin stability in our region.

Explainable machine learning for electrification of everything. The energy sector is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. "Electrification of Everything" combined with electricity generation from renewables is a key solution to decarbonise the energy and transport sectors. This project aims to develop an explainable machine learning based data-driven technology to accurately predict the impact of electrification on consumers energy consumption and cost. The expected outcome of th ....Explainable machine learning for electrification of everything. The energy sector is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. "Electrification of Everything" combined with electricity generation from renewables is a key solution to decarbonise the energy and transport sectors. This project aims to develop an explainable machine learning based data-driven technology to accurately predict the impact of electrification on consumers energy consumption and cost. The expected outcome of this project includes a data-informed decision support technology to help consumers choose the best electrification technologies and solutions. This should provide significant benefits, such as increasing community engagement with electrification, and thus reducing their carbon footprint.Read moreRead less
Machine learning techniques for fuel loss detection at service stations. This project aims to develop effective techniques to identify the sources of fuel losses, such as leaks and calibration errors in underground storage tanks at service stations. Monitoring fuel losses at service stations is influenced by many external factors which can be difficult to predict. The project expects to use machine learning to develop the techniques and test them with live data at service stations. The expected ....Machine learning techniques for fuel loss detection at service stations. This project aims to develop effective techniques to identify the sources of fuel losses, such as leaks and calibration errors in underground storage tanks at service stations. Monitoring fuel losses at service stations is influenced by many external factors which can be difficult to predict. The project expects to use machine learning to develop the techniques and test them with live data at service stations. The expected outcomes are a set of tailor-made machine learning techniques for effective fuel loss detection and a software suite that can be easily incorporated into the normal operation of service stations. This should reduce the costs to the petroleum industry from wasteful leaks and the environmental damage caused by these leaks. Read moreRead less
