Dr A Liew; Prof H Yan; Prof WC Chu, Automatic Brain Tissue Segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Images based on Knowledge-guided Constrained Clustering, 2010 $50,000, 2011 $50,000, 2012 $50,000, Project Summary: Accurate volumetric measurement of brain tissues is of critical importance in the study of many brain disorders, disease diagnosis, disease progression tracking and treatment monitoring. The study in this research will result in the development of a powerful computational technique that allows automatic volumetric measurement and analysis of brain tissues. The software developed in this project will expedite early clinical diagnosis and treatment of neural diseases for patients, hence saving life and reducing health cost both at the personal and the national level.

Dr J Wang; Prof JX Yu, Exploiting Views in Extensible Markup Language (XML) Data Processing, 2010 $70,000, 2011 $70,000, 2012 $70,000, Project Summary: This project addresses an important technical issue in smart information use, which is among Australian National Research Priorities. The techniques developed in this project will enable Australian organizations to build smarter and more efficient information systems, hence making them more competitive in the global market. The problems in this project are technically challenging, solving them in Australia will enhance Australia's international research reputation. The project will also boost Australia's research capability by training PhD and honours students.

A/Prof K Wang; Dr JR Thornton; Dr J Wang; Prof T Eiter; Prof G Antoniou; Dr H Tompits, Rule-based reasoning systems for complex and dynamic ontologies, 2010 $50,000, 2011 $50,000, 2012 $50,000, Project Summary: The successful outcome of this project will enhance Australia's research reputation in an important, practical area of ICT, will contribute to emerging Web technologies that will eventually be of benefit to Australian industry, and will train several postgraduate students.

Dr Kaile Su, Model checking Multi-Agent System and its applications, 2009 $85,800, 2010 $171,600, 2011 $171,600, 2012 $171,600, 2013 $85,800, Project Summary: This research project directly addresses two of the Australian Government's four National Research Priorities: National Research Priorities 3 and 4. It will develop an enabling technology that is applicable to the development of safety-intensive and highly dependable software systems like medical equipment and airport controlling systems. The security protocol analysis technologies developed by this project can be useful for providing improved ways of military operation flows, and for making Australian security communication systems more dependable.
