ACVT has strong capabilities in the field of machine learning and is developing new techniques and applying them to a range of diverse problem spaces. For example, work is underway in the area of automatic feature extraction and classification from satellite and aerial imagery using a supervised machine learning system. Of key importance is the development of robust classifiers and an associated framework by which to apply them to geospatial data. ACVT is also working on entity extraction and resolution from unstructured data sources. This involves the development of unsupervised clustering techniques which are able to be applied on a massive scale.

ACVT working with the Motor Accident Commission to improve Cycling Safety

ACVT is working with the South Australian Motor Accident Commission (MAC) with the aim of improving the safety of cyclists. A project commencing shortly will focus on developing software to enable the MAC to analyse imagery to evaluate the visibility of cyclists under a range of conditions. A key goal for the project is to […]

ACVT research being applied to solve "Big Data" problems

The ACVT has been awarded two contracts to work with the Defence Systems Innovation Centre (DSIC) in the area of Big Data. Big Data Intelligence Platform: Defence and Intelligence agencies are faced with an ever-increasing amount of incoming data. The ability to extract actionable intelligence from this data, whilst using limited manpower, will require new […]

Compressive Sensing Based Probabilistic Graphical Models (DE120101161)

Dr Qinfeng Shi of the ACVT has been awarded a 3 year ARC DECRA Grant valued at $375,000. Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGMs) use graphs to represent the interactions between random variables and provide a formalism by which to represent complex probabilistic relationships. Despite the success of PGMs in many fields, the learning on real industrial […]
