Summary
High performance density-based clustering in parallel environments. This project aims to conduct a comprehensive study on density-based clustering to improve data management in parallel computing environments. Clustering, a fundamental task in data management, is to group a set of objects such that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar to each other than those in other groups in order to simplify retrieval of similar information. Clustering is widely used in many fields i ....High performance density-based clustering in parallel environments. This project aims to conduct a comprehensive study on density-based clustering to improve data management in parallel computing environments. Clustering, a fundamental task in data management, is to group a set of objects such that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar to each other than those in other groups in order to simplify retrieval of similar information. Clustering is widely used in many fields including machine learning, pattern recognition, information retrieval, bioinformatics and image analysis. It is expected that the developed clustering techniques will provide significant performance improvements in industry sectors where decisions are made based on clustering data analytics, such as the sectors of finance, renewable energy and artificial intelligence.Read moreRead less
Efficient spatial data management for enabling true ride-sharing. This data management project aims to examine ride-sharing as a model of a complex decision system that can be optimised to deliver better outcomes. Popular ride-sharing apps have quickly evolved into ride-sourcing services that are comparable to calling a taxi on a mobile phone. Such arrangements miss many of the key benefits of true ride-sharing for the society. The project will model incentives by helping people agree on points ....Efficient spatial data management for enabling true ride-sharing. This data management project aims to examine ride-sharing as a model of a complex decision system that can be optimised to deliver better outcomes. Popular ride-sharing apps have quickly evolved into ride-sourcing services that are comparable to calling a taxi on a mobile phone. Such arrangements miss many of the key benefits of true ride-sharing for the society. The project will model incentives by helping people agree on points of interest rather than directly seeking trips from others to set destinations. It also aims to introduce privacy-aware dynamic matching of sharers, and expand to transportation at large, to generate new shared transportation services. The expected outcome of this project is to elevate today's taxi-like ride-sharing services to true ride-sharing arrangements. This is expected to provide benefits such as reduced traffic and emissions, as well as addressing parking issues and other traffic problems.Read moreRead less
Personalised data analytics for the Internet of Me. This project aims to develop data mining methods for extracting comprehensive personalised knowledge, without breaching trust. The Internet of Things will lead to the Internet of Me. Billions of smart devices connected to the Internet record people’s lives. Companies wish to provide highly personalised services that engage their customers, while individuals wish to understand their health, lifestyle, education and personal performance. The chal ....Personalised data analytics for the Internet of Me. This project aims to develop data mining methods for extracting comprehensive personalised knowledge, without breaching trust. The Internet of Things will lead to the Internet of Me. Billions of smart devices connected to the Internet record people’s lives. Companies wish to provide highly personalised services that engage their customers, while individuals wish to understand their health, lifestyle, education and personal performance. The challenge is to analyse individuals’ personal data, and discover how they differentiate from and overlap with others’. This project expects to enable businesses to deepen customer satisfaction and individuals to better understand their personal place in a connected world.Read moreRead less
Advancing Analytical Query Processing with Urban Trajectory Data. This project aims to provide accurate, rapid, and comprehensive information to analyze transport and related infrastructure use in real time. This project expects to develop innovative solutions by exploiting massive urban trajectory data derived from public transport usage, route mapping, GPS tracking and road-side sensors. Expected outcomes include a new algorithmic framework to support complex trajectory-driven analytical tasks ....Advancing Analytical Query Processing with Urban Trajectory Data. This project aims to provide accurate, rapid, and comprehensive information to analyze transport and related infrastructure use in real time. This project expects to develop innovative solutions by exploiting massive urban trajectory data derived from public transport usage, route mapping, GPS tracking and road-side sensors. Expected outcomes include a new algorithmic framework to support complex trajectory-driven analytical tasks in public transport network planning, traffic congestion prevention, and facility deployment. This should significantly benefit both government and industry in data-driven decision makings and evaluations on the impact of decisions made, and ultimately materialize Australian government’s Smart Cities Plan.Read moreRead less
Searching Cohesive Subgraphs in Big Attributed Graph Data. The availability of big attributed graph data brings great opportunities for realizing big values of data. Making sense of such big attributed graph data finds many applications, including health, science, engineering, business, environment, etc. A cohesive subgraph, one of key components that captures the latent properties in a graph, is essential to graph analysis. This project aims to invent effective models of cohesive subgraphs and ....Searching Cohesive Subgraphs in Big Attributed Graph Data. The availability of big attributed graph data brings great opportunities for realizing big values of data. Making sense of such big attributed graph data finds many applications, including health, science, engineering, business, environment, etc. A cohesive subgraph, one of key components that captures the latent properties in a graph, is essential to graph analysis. This project aims to invent effective models of cohesive subgraphs and efficient algorithms for searching and monitoring cohesive subgraphs in big and dynamic attributed graphs from both structure and attribute perspectives. The methods, techniques, and prototype systems developed in this project can be deployed to facilitate the smart use of big graph data across the nation. Read moreRead less
Modelling and Searching Cohesive Groups over Heterogeneous Graphs . Heterogeneous information networks (HINs) contain richer structural and semantic information represented as different types of objects and links.

Heterogeneous information networks (HINs) contain richer structural and semantic information represented as different types of objects and links. Searching cohesive groups from HINs finds many applications and also brings challenges at both conceptual and technical levels. This project aims to investigate the effective modelling of cohesive groups that take both homogeneous and heterogeneous information into account for different applications and devise efficient algorithms for searching and monitoring those cohesive groups based on different models. The methods, techniques, and evaluation systems developed in this project can be deployed to facilitate the smart use of heterogeneous information networks across the nation.Read moreRead less
