Optimal Transforms of Random Vectors. This proposal focusses on development of optimal transforms to describe and model nonlinear phenomena when only statistical information is known. An optimal transform is a mathematical procedure that enables us to process information in a way that is most suited to the task in hand. These transforms have been successfully used in approximation, information theory, communications, control theory and signal and image processing.

This proposal focusses on development of optimal transforms to describe and model nonlinear phenomena when only statistical information is known. An optimal transform is a mathematical procedure that enables us to process information in a way that is most suited to the task in hand. These transforms have been successfully used in approximation, information theory, communications, control theory and signal and image processing. Applications include modelling of physical, chemical and biological systems, filtering and compression of signals and data classification and clustering. We propose two new hybrid models for realistic transforms in a general structural framework.

A new perturbation method for solving singular operator equations with applications to complex systems. This project will develop new methods for analysis of web-based search routines such as Google PageRank, a new algorithm for optimal estimation of random signals, more accurate error analysis in the approximate solution of singular systems of equations and enhanced understanding of models for the simulated management of urban stormwater. The project will involve collaboration between two Aus ....A new perturbation method for solving singular operator equations with applications to complex systems. This project will develop new methods for analysis of web-based search routines such as Google PageRank, a new algorithm for optimal estimation of random signals, more accurate error analysis in the approximate solution of singular systems of equations and enhanced understanding of models for the simulated management of urban stormwater. The project will involve collaboration between two Australian universities and a leading European Research Institute. It will provide employment and vital training for two postdoctoral Research fellows and research projects for three postgraduate students and two honours students.Read moreRead less
