Smart Information Processing for Roadside Fire Risk Assessment Using Computational Intelligence and Pattern Recognition. This project proposes a novel approach for identifying roadside fire risks using pattern recognition and computational intelligence techniques. The video data is collected over every state road in Queensland annually, and has the potential to provide a range of value-added products for safer roads.

This project proposes a novel approach for identifying roadside fire risks using pattern recognition and computational intelligence techniques. The video data is collected over every state road in Queensland annually, and has the potential to provide a range of value-added products for safer roads. This project aims to develop new techniques for identification of roadside objects so that the data can be automatically analysed allowing the estimation of fire risk factors. The final outcome intends to be techniques for segmentation and classification of roadside objects and estimation of fire risk factors.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.

Towards in-vehicle situation awareness using visual and audio sensors. This project aims to characterise driver awareness, activity and interactions with other vehicle occupants using visual and audio cues from internally mounted sensors. Road accidents cost Australia an estimated $30 billion per year and tragic loss of thousands of lives, yet the vast majority of severe vehicle crashes are linked to driver fatigue or distraction. The expected project outcomes include advanced artificial intelli ....Towards in-vehicle situation awareness using visual and audio sensors. This project aims to characterise driver awareness, activity and interactions with other vehicle occupants using visual and audio cues from internally mounted sensors. Road accidents cost Australia an estimated $30 billion per year and tragic loss of thousands of lives, yet the vast majority of severe vehicle crashes are linked to driver fatigue or distraction. The expected project outcomes include advanced artificial intelligence to infer and predict dangerous driver and passenger behaviour. This has the potential to significantly benefit society by advancing autonomous driving capabilities and reducing driver-induced accidents and fatalities, ensuring that every driver, passenger and pedestrian arrives home safely at the end of each day.Read moreRead less
