The clinical benefit of this project will be in improved success rates and reduced mortality and risk in surgery and intensive care units. The Information and communication technology (ICT) benefit of this project is associated with the novel online algorithms and models aligned with the stream data research, and will be enhanced by our stream compression techniques. The stream data analyser developed in this project will be suitable for more than medical surveillance data; it will also improve the processing of other kinds of massive stream data (for example data from remote sensors, communication networks and other dynamic environments). The project involves a scientifically rich collaboration that will enhance the skills of PhD students and staff and drive the field forward.Read moreRead less

Deep attribute-aware hashing for cross retrieval. This project aims to enable individuals, industries and governments, to freely access vital and linked information carried in different media types from different sources by developing a deep attribute-aware framework that embeds heterogeneous features into a shared data space to achieve effective and efficient cross system information retrieval. With the proliferation of heterogeneous data sources, there is an urgent need to enable search and re ....Deep attribute-aware hashing for cross retrieval. This project aims to enable individuals, industries and governments, to freely access vital and linked information carried in different media types from different sources by developing a deep attribute-aware framework that embeds heterogeneous features into a shared data space to achieve effective and efficient cross system information retrieval. With the proliferation of heterogeneous data sources, there is an urgent need to enable search and retrieval across different media types and domains. The framework developed by the project uses deep learning methods to develop meaningful image attributes to positively bridge the modality gap and the domain gap when hash functions are affixed to data. This project will significantly advance the research of multimedia retrieval, and benefit a series of related research problems whenever heterogeneous multimedia data are involved in their applications.Read moreRead less

Summary
Searching Activity Trajectories for Intention Oriented Recommendations. The ubiquitous fusion of social network services and Global Positioning System-enabled mobile devices has generated large-scale activity trajectory data representing the footprint of people's daily activities. It presents an unprecedented opportunity to build highly intelligent recommendation systems. Existing approaches that merely focus on the location aspect of trajectories are limited in their ability to understand genui ....Searching Activity Trajectories for Intention Oriented Recommendations. The ubiquitous fusion of social network services and Global Positioning System-enabled mobile devices has generated large-scale activity trajectory data representing the footprint of people's daily activities. It presents an unprecedented opportunity to build highly intelligent recommendation systems. Existing approaches that merely focus on the location aspect of trajectories are limited in their ability to understand genuine preferences from travel histories, due to lack of consideration for activity information as well as the associated semantics and context. This project aims to address these issues and provide effective recommendations by considering both users’ intention and collective behavioural knowledge inferred from activity trajectories.Read moreRead less

This project aims to tackle the growing problem of data curation. The capacity to effectively utilise the increasing number of datasets available to organisations for timely decision making is diminishing, due to onerous data preparation and curation tasks that have to be performed before the data can be consumed by analytics platforms. The project will be a first attempt at using a novel process-oriented approach in micro-task crowdsourcing, and will create new knowledge to harness the full potential of crowd sourced data curation. This is expected to make a significant benefit towards enhanced organisational capacity to accelerate the time-to-value from data analytics projects.Read moreRead less
