Investigation and Development of Parallel Large Scale Record Linkage Techniques. Record linkage aims at matching records of the same entity (like customer or patient) in large (administrative) databases. The outcomes of the proposed research will improve current techniques in terms of efficiency, accuracy and the need for human intervention.

Record linkage aims at matching records of the same entity (like customer or patient) in large (administrative) databases. The outcomes of the proposed research will improve current techniques in terms of efficiency, accuracy and the need for human intervention. Through experimental studies and stochastic modelling the performance of traditional and new methods for data cleaning, standardisation and linkage will be assessed. The effect of the statistical dependency of attribute values will be studied. New methods using clustering for blocking large datasets, and predictive models including interaction terms will be implemented, analysed and evaluated on high-performance computers and office-based PC clusters.

Creating the social genome: Advanced techniques for linking dynamic data. This project aims to develop novel efficient and effective models and techniques that enable record linkage of large dynamic databases while preserving the privacy of sensitive personal data. Social genomes are the digital footprints of our society. They are the basis of population informatics, which is revolutionising how researchers in various domains conduct studies, governments plan services and expenditures, and busin ....Creating the social genome: Advanced techniques for linking dynamic data. This project aims to develop novel efficient and effective models and techniques that enable record linkage of large dynamic databases while preserving the privacy of sensitive personal data. Social genomes are the digital footprints of our society. They are the basis of population informatics, which is revolutionising how researchers in various domains conduct studies, governments plan services and expenditures, and businesses advertise and interact with their customers. A core requirement of population informatics is the linking of large dynamic databases that contain details about people from diverse sources. The expected outcomes of this project will provide novel solutions to the challenges of population informatics faced by Australian organisations.Read moreRead less
Privacy-preserving record linkage on multiple large databases. Record linkage has been recognised as a crucial infrastructure component in many information systems, however privacy concerns commonly prevent the linking of databases that contain personal information. This project will develop techniques that will enable the linking of multiple large databases without revealing any private information.

Summary
A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and ....A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and evaluation of IoT technologies and services. The project will also serve as a vehicle for the education and training of Australia’s next generation of scholars and engineers, and contribute to Australia’s scientific visibility.Read moreRead less
