Project Member(s): Zhang, C.

Funding or Partner Organisation: Australian Research Council (ARC Discovery Projects)

Start year: 2010

Summary: Mining multiple information sources can provide rich knowledge which is difficult to discover by mining single data source. Comparing and collaborating multi-source data for mining are critical. This project aims to systematically investigate the theoretical foundations and practical solutions for mining multiple information sources, with the objective of delivering a unified multi-source collaborative and comparative mining framework. The expected outcomes are: (1) establishing the theoretical foundations for this emerging data mining research area, (2) benefiting key application areas, such as bioinformatics, business intelligence, and security informatics, and (3) helping maintain Australia's leading role in data mining research.
