Semantic change detection through large-scale learning. This project aims to develop technologies which understand the content of images before higher-level analysis is performed. This approach is intended to allow more accurate and reliable decisions to be made using automated image analysis than has previously been possible. The project will particularly investigate the detection of change in the contents of an image.
Feature-Level Fusion with Incomplete Data for Automatic Person Identification. This research addresses the current key problems in automated person recognition with incomplete data using multiple traits. The outcomes of this research will not only make a significant contribution to fundamental theory but also result in a wide range of crime and terrorism preventing applications including police database searching, access control, security monitoring and surveillance. They can be used either by p ....Feature-Level Fusion with Incomplete Data for Automatic Person Identification. This research addresses the current key problems in automated person recognition with incomplete data using multiple traits. The outcomes of this research will not only make a significant contribution to fundamental theory but also result in a wide range of crime and terrorism preventing applications including police database searching, access control, security monitoring and surveillance. They can be used either by police and law enforcement agencies, or at places of airport, government buildings, military facilities and even sensitive areas in offices and factories. It will help reduce crime, enhance the security of the nation to a world-advanced level, and generate new industry and export opportunities for Australian security industry.Read moreRead less
Face recognition under varying pose and lighting--towards automatic personal identification for surveillance systems. One of the key remaining problems in computerized human face recognition is the need to handle the variability in appearance due to changes in pose. This proposed research targets at identifying a person with a face image in a pose different from the example view by using a novel texture analysis and synthesis technique. This technique makes use of facial textures at different vi ....Face recognition under varying pose and lighting--towards automatic personal identification for surveillance systems. One of the key remaining problems in computerized human face recognition is the need to handle the variability in appearance due to changes in pose. This proposed research targets at identifying a person with a face image in a pose different from the example view by using a novel texture analysis and synthesis technique. This technique makes use of facial textures at different viewing directions and can recover appropriate textures for virtual views in arbitrary poses. The successfulness of the proposed research would make a technical breakthrough towards solving the major remaining problem in face recognition.Read moreRead less
Unlocking Mass Mobile Video Analytics with Advanced Neural Memory Networks. This project will develop neural memory architectures and dense spatial-temporal bundle adjustment to predict movement, behaviour, and perform multi-sensor fusion across large asynchronous video feeds. This capability will allow us to better interrogate and analyse mass video information recorded from the vast number of smartphones, action cameras, and surveillance cameras which exist at public events of interest. Outcom ....Unlocking Mass Mobile Video Analytics with Advanced Neural Memory Networks. This project will develop neural memory architectures and dense spatial-temporal bundle adjustment to predict movement, behaviour, and perform multi-sensor fusion across large asynchronous video feeds. This capability will allow us to better interrogate and analyse mass video information recorded from the vast number of smartphones, action cameras, and surveillance cameras which exist at public events of interest. Outcomes include the ability to ingest multiple video feeds into a dense and dynamic 3D reconstruction for knowledge representation and discovery, and analysis of events and behaviour through new spatio-temporal analytic approaches. This will offer significant benefits for video forensic analysis, policing, and emergency response.Read moreRead less
