Robust, valid and interpretable deep learning for quantitative imaging. One of the biggest challenges in employing artificial intelligence is the “black-box” nature of the models used. This project aims to improve the effectiveness and trustworthiness of deep learning within quantitative magnetic resonance imaging.

One of the biggest challenges in employing artificial intelligence is the “black-box” nature of the models used. This project aims to improve the effectiveness and trustworthiness of deep learning within quantitative magnetic resonance imaging. Deep learning has great promise in speeding-up complex image processing tasks, but currently suffers from variable data inputs, predictions are not guaranteed to be plausible and it is not clear to the end user how reliable the results are. The outcomes intend to deliver advanced knowledge and capability in artificial intelligence and machine learning that Australia urgently needs to capitalise on bringing deep learning into practical applications delivering economic, commercial and social impact.Read moreRead less
Evaluating recurrence as a measure of change in interpersonal dynamics. This project aims to develop an automated conversation analysis system to quantify how communication changes over extended periods of time. It is innovative in proposing to extend the theory and methods of recurrence analysis (a dynamical systems technique) to interacting modalities combining text, audio and video, and to longitudinal analyses. The project is significant in being the first to aim to measure communication dyn ....Evaluating recurrence as a measure of change in interpersonal dynamics. This project aims to develop an automated conversation analysis system to quantify how communication changes over extended periods of time. It is innovative in proposing to extend the theory and methods of recurrence analysis (a dynamical systems technique) to interacting modalities combining text, audio and video, and to longitudinal analyses. The project is significant in being the first to aim to measure communication dynamics over time in the fields of education, health, public discourse and science. It is expected to result in new theories and methods for recurrence analysis validated using real-world data; and to enable new technologies for evaluating professional communication training and communication changes resulting from education or disease progression.Read moreRead less
Tracing nature's template: using statistical machine learning to evolve biocatalysts. In this project new computational methods will be developed to design nature-inspired, biological catalysts for industrial purposes. Such methods will enable catalysts to be designed that can improve the effectiveness and environmental footprint of drug development, agricultural and specialist chemical production and environmental remediation.

Advanced Monte Carlo Methods for Spatial Processes. The modeling and analysis of spatial data relies more and more on sophisticated Monte Carlo simulation methods. However, with the growing complexity of today's spatial data, traditional Monte Carlo methods increasingly face difficulties in terms of speed and accuracy.

The modeling and analysis of spatial data relies more and more on sophisticated Monte Carlo simulation methods. However, with the growing complexity of today's spatial data, traditional Monte Carlo methods increasingly face difficulties in terms of speed and accuracy. The aim of this project is to develop new theory and applications at the interface of Monte Carlo methods and spatial statistics, building upon exciting theoretical and computational advances in both areas in recent years. The research will stimulate the design of microscopic and macroscopic complex spatial structures with superior properties, such as composite materials, solar cells, telecommunication networks, mining operations, and road systems.Read moreRead less
