Summary
Cancer is caused by mutations which should be 'seen' and destroyed by the patients immune cells, similar to how immune cells protect us against viruses. But they don't. This grant will study how current cancer treatments help the immune cells 'see' these mutations. We will undertake these studies in the important cancers lung cancer and mesothelioma.
Advanced Capture, Analysis and Compression of Facial Images. Facial image processing is an area of research that holds an important key to future advances in intelligent human-to-computer and human-to-human systems. This project will investigate and develop superior approaches to image capturing of human faces for subsequent analysis and compression. It aims to develop innovative techniques to detect, extract and recognise faces, as well as more efficient ways to compress facial image data. This ....Advanced Capture, Analysis and Compression of Facial Images. Facial image processing is an area of research that holds an important key to future advances in intelligent human-to-computer and human-to-human systems. This project will investigate and develop superior approaches to image capturing of human faces for subsequent analysis and compression. It aims to develop innovative techniques to detect, extract and recognise faces, as well as more efficient ways to compress facial image data. This project will provide advanced Australian technology with applications in some of the world's fastest growing markets, including crowd surveillance, computer user interface, videoconferencing, and multimedia systems.Read moreRead less
Robust speech recognition in realistic hostile environments. Australia leads the world in the adoption of speech recognition technology but sadly lags in the development of the fundamental advances in the area. This research will help propel Australia to the forefront of new innovations in speech recognition technology and contributions to fundamental science.

Australia leads the world in the adoption of speech recognition technology but sadly lags in the development of the fundamental advances in the area. This research will help propel Australia to the forefront of new innovations in speech recognition technology and contributions to fundamental science. Our project will provide an excellent training ground for graduate students and researchers, with the real possibility of significant commercial benefit to the nation. The deployment of our system in the community will greatly enhance the defence and police forces ability for surveillance and security, and will provide new assistive aids to improve the quality of life and safety for the elderly and disabled.Read moreRead less
A Skin Detection Micro-Sensor for Face Identification using Color and Stereo Information. The objective of this research is to develop a micro-sensor for face identification, using color and stereo information. The micro-sensor chip performs a real-time search of the scene to locate human skin for subsequent face detection. This micro-sensor could also be used for gesture recognition, lip reading, monitoring driver's hypo-vigilance or tracking a person in a crowd. The chip image-recognition capa ....A Skin Detection Micro-Sensor for Face Identification using Color and Stereo Information.

This micro-sensor could also be used for gesture recognition, lip reading, monitoring driver's hypo-vigilance or tracking a person in a crowd. The chip image-recognition capabilities will spur the development of a new generation of consumer products with "intelligent eyes".
