Summary
Towards Explainable Multi-source Multivariate Time-series Analysis. The aim of this project is to build deep learning models with transparent reasoning behind the results that can be easily interpreted by humans. The research rests on translating pertinent knowledge from multiple sources of complex data containing event sequences into graph form and embedding those knowledge graphs into a sophisticated deep learning model. Such an accomplishment represents the next great advance in machine intel ....Towards Explainable Multi-source Multivariate Time-series Analysis. The aim of this project is to build deep learning models with transparent reasoning behind the results that can be easily interpreted by humans. The research rests on translating pertinent knowledge from multiple sources of complex data containing event sequences into graph form and embedding those knowledge graphs into a sophisticated deep learning model. Such an accomplishment represents the next great advance in machine intelligence and will lay the theoretical foundations for building intelligent analysis tools that truly work in tandem with people. The potential benefits to science, society, and the Australian economy, particularly in finance, sensor technologies, and emergency health services would be appreciable.Read moreRead less
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. 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 i ....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. 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

This project aims to develop an automatic graph learning system for complex graph data analysis. Machine learning for graph data commonly requires significant human knowledge from both domain professionals as well as algorithm experts, rendering existing systems ineffective and unexplainable. This project expects to design novel graph learning techniques which automatically infer graph relations, learn graph models, adapts existing knowledge to new domains, and provide explanations to the graph learning system. The research results should provide benefit to governments and businesses in many critical applications, such as bioassay activity prediction, credit assessment, and drug discovery and vaccine development in response to the pandemic.Read moreRead less

Building crowd sourced data curation processes. This project aims to tackle the growing problem of data curation. The capacity to effectively utilise the increasing number of datasets available to organisations for timely decision making is diminishing, due to onerous data preparation and curation tasks that have to be performed before the data can be consumed by analytics platforms. The project will be a first attempt at using a novel process-oriented approach in micro-task crowdsourcing, and w ....Building crowd sourced data curation processes. This project aims to tackle the growing problem of data curation. The capacity to effectively utilise the increasing number of datasets available to organisations for timely decision making is diminishing, due to onerous data preparation and curation tasks that have to be performed before the data can be consumed by analytics platforms. The project will be a first attempt at using a novel process-oriented approach in micro-task crowdsourcing, and will create new knowledge to harness the full potential of crowd sourced data curation. This is expected to make a significant benefit towards enhanced organisational capacity to accelerate the time-to-value from data analytics projects.Read moreRead less
Quantum-Inspired Machine Learning. This project aims to develop new machine learning techniques based around the close correspondence between

Tensor networks are a form of information compression that is useful in machine learning to construct a compact representation of a large data set in a way that is more amenable to understanding the internal structure than a deep neural network. Expected outcomes of this project include more resilient algorithms for machine learning, and new ways to represent quantum states that will impact fundamental physics. The resulting benefits include enhanced capacity for cross-discipline collaboration, and improved methods for future industrial applications.

This project will enable automatic re-engineering of large enterprise applications to run in modern cloud environments as microservices. Microservices are the latest wave of service-based software, capable of exploiting the high performance and third-party integration opportunities made available through the cloud. The project will develop new techniques for analysing enterprise systems code and execution data, and making recommendations for restructuring suitable parts as microservices. These microservices manage individual business objects via sets of lightweight distributed computational operations. The outcomes will support progressive evolution of an enterprise system, into distributed microservices running in public clouds, while still being integrated with "backend" systems.Read moreRead less
