Funded Activity Summary

Handling unreliable, uncertain and inadequate data for Intelligence led Investigation. Intelligence led investigation has been successful recently in drug and people smuggling, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, and can benefit profoundly from the techniques we will develop, in the timely management and inference from many sources and kinds of uncertain information. This work will assist in making Australia a safer and more secure country. E.g., Australian Bureau of Statistics figures show that for 2004, investigations of some 35% of murders, 63% of kidnappings, and 80% of robberies are incomplete at 30 days. Terrorism investigations are harder in that usually there is no initial crime trigger for an investigation. Any assistance our tools can provide in will be of significant benefit to Australia.
