Summary
Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. This project aims to understand how to build AI systems that humans can trust. It does so by studying how to make such systems fair, explainable, auditable, preserving of privacy and verifiable. Outputs will include tools to build trustworthy AI systems, as well as policy recommendations to complement the technical tools. This should provide significant economic and societal benefits as decisions in both the public and private sector are increasingly being ha ....Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence. This project aims to understand how to build AI systems that humans can trust. It does so by studying how to make such systems fair, explainable, auditable, preserving of privacy and verifiable. Outputs will include tools to build trustworthy AI systems, as well as policy recommendations to complement the technical tools. This should provide significant economic and societal benefits as decisions in both the public and private sector are increasingly being handed over to computers.Read moreRead less

Summary
On snapping up semantics of dynamic pixels from moving cameras. The project aims to develop a suite of original models and algorithms for processing and understanding videos captured by moving cameras, and to establish the mathematical foundations for deep learning-based computer vision to provide theoretical underpinnings. The project expects to generate new knowledge that will transform moving-camera computer vision with step-changes in visual quality enhancement, compression and acceleration ....On snapping up semantics of dynamic pixels from moving cameras. The project aims to develop a suite of original models and algorithms for processing and understanding videos captured by moving cameras, and to establish the mathematical foundations for deep learning-based computer vision to provide theoretical underpinnings. The project expects to generate new knowledge that will transform moving-camera computer vision with step-changes in visual quality enhancement, compression and acceleration technologies, and solutions for fundamental computer vision tasks. A new concept of feature complexity for measuring the discriminant and learnable abilities of features from deep models will also be defined. The outcomes of the project will be critical for enabling autonomous machines to perceive and interact with the environment.Read moreRead less

Summary
Autonomous learning for decision making in complex situations. The project aims to create a novel research direction – autonomous machine learning for data-driven decision-making – that innovatively and effectively learns from big data to support decision-making in complex (massive, uncertain, dynamic) situations. A set of new theories, methodologies and algorithms will give artificial intelligence the ability to learn autonomously from data to enable machine learning capability to effectively h ....Autonomous learning for decision making in complex situations. The project aims to create a novel research direction – autonomous machine learning for data-driven decision-making – that innovatively and effectively learns from big data to support decision-making in complex (massive, uncertain, dynamic) situations. A set of new theories, methodologies and algorithms will give artificial intelligence the ability to learn autonomously from data to enable machine learning capability to effectively handle tremendous uncertainties in data, learning processes and decision outputs, particularly enabling smart learning in massive domains, massive streams, and massive-agent sequentially changing environments. The project’s outcomes are expected to improve data-driven decision-making in multiple industry sectors.Read moreRead less

Summary
Re-Evolving Nature’s Best Positioning Systems for People and Their Machines. The aim is to develop next-generation positioning capabilities that reduce Australia’s increasingly risky strategic reliance on vulnerable GPS satellites owned by other countries, and that enable transformation of Australia’s most important sectors through enhanced automation and robotics. Our approach re-evolves, re-engineers, and re-combines the best performing and best understood components of nature’s best positioni ....Re-Evolving Nature’s Best Positioning Systems for People and Their Machines. The aim is to develop next-generation positioning capabilities that reduce Australia’s increasingly risky strategic reliance on vulnerable GPS satellites owned by other countries, and that enable transformation of Australia’s most important sectors through enhanced automation and robotics. Our approach re-evolves, re-engineers, and re-combines the best performing and best understood components of nature’s best positioning systems with new technological advances in sensing and computation. The expected outcomes are high-performance positioning systems that improve the competitiveness of Australia’s leading industries and provide the positioning reliability required by the defence sector to keep Australia secure.Read moreRead less

Summary
Pattern analysis for accelerating scientific innovation. This project aims to determine how pattern recognition can be harnessed to accelerate and expand the capability of experimental optimisation that underpins scientific innovation. Disrupting current experimental methods, this new framework will use data-driven models to guide humans through experimental complexity. The expected outcomes of the project include advancing the theory and practice of pattern recognition in Bayesian optimisation ....Pattern analysis for accelerating scientific innovation. This project aims to determine how pattern recognition can be harnessed to accelerate and expand the capability of experimental optimisation that underpins scientific innovation. Disrupting current experimental methods, this new framework will use data-driven models to guide humans through experimental complexity. The expected outcomes of the project include advancing the theory and practice of pattern recognition in Bayesian optimisation by solving both fundamental and translatory problems, totally transforming the way complex experimental explorations can be done. The project will establish Australia as a leader in innovation-led productivity in the 4th industrial revolution, which will include ground-breaking investigations into the use of pattern recognition to navigate complexity in the experimental process.Read moreRead less
