Data sharing with strong privacy against inference attacks. This project aims to develop theories and techniques for strong protection of personal information in sharing large datasets such as national health data or census records. It intends to achieve this through developing new information theoretic methods for synthesising datasets with proven high fidelity and protection against re-identification and inference attacks, where attackers try to learn probability of sensitive data. The expecte ....Data sharing with strong privacy against inference attacks. This project aims to develop theories and techniques for strong protection of personal information in sharing large datasets such as national health data or census records. It intends to achieve this through developing new information theoretic methods for synthesising datasets with proven high fidelity and protection against re-identification and inference attacks, where attackers try to learn probability of sensitive data. The expected outcomes are algorithms for public and private sector data curators to dial up or down their data access arrangements based on privacy risks and fidelity demands linked with different data types and uses. This project intends to enable Australians to securely benefit from valuable data in decision making.Read moreRead less
Enabling ultra-reliable and sustainable machine-to-machine communications. This project aims to develop spectrum sharing and power transfer techniques for machine-to-machine communications in future wireless networks. Current wireless networks have high data rate as a priority but cannot deliver ultra-reliable and extended battery life operation for many low data rate machine-type devices. Through proper design of wireless and autonomous machine-to-machine communications, this project expects to ....Enabling ultra-reliable and sustainable machine-to-machine communications. This project aims to develop spectrum sharing and power transfer techniques for machine-to-machine communications in future wireless networks. Current wireless networks have high data rate as a priority but cannot deliver ultra-reliable and extended battery life operation for many low data rate machine-type devices. Through proper design of wireless and autonomous machine-to-machine communications, this project expects to improve quality of life and implement ultra-reliable, intelligent and long lasting machine-type monitoring devices for health, agriculture, mining, wildlife and critical national infrastructure.Read moreRead less
