Computational tools to analyse and exploit the social media revolution. We aim to create technologies to analyse social media communities, which are rapidly growing in reach, complexity, and content produced and shared. Powerful techniques to tap this resource will lead to commercial outcomes for marketing and search industries, alongside deeper insight into the cultural and social impact of this Internet revolution.
Personalised Online Learning Analytics by Exploring Multilayer Graph Data . Learning analytics is becoming a significant factor in reducing the drop-out rate of students in online learning. The aim of this project is to develop a reliable, robust, real-time analysis system that automatically reveals multilayered relationships, evaluates students' learning performance, and generates a personal study plan through discovery. This project includes the design of novel algorithms for multilayer graph ....Personalised Online Learning Analytics by Exploring Multilayer Graph Data . Learning analytics is becoming a significant factor in reducing the drop-out rate of students in online learning. The aim of this project is to develop a reliable, robust, real-time analysis system that automatically reveals multilayered relationships, evaluates students' learning performance, and generates a personal study plan through discovery. This project includes the design of novel algorithms for multilayer graph processing, pattern recognition in learning activities, learning performance assessment, and personalised study plan recommendations. The success of this project will significantly enhance the success of online education both in Australia and worldwide and; hence, will save time, money and resources for end users.Read moreRead less
Assistive technologies for autism support harnessing social media. This project aims to tap social media to revolutionize early intervention therapy for children with autism. By creating open, extensible software for therapy delivery, and tools for parents to access high quality information and support, we will provide children a greater chance to achieve their potential and much-needed relief for parents and carers.
