Summary: Complex interactions and relations hidden in groups form a major driver of exceptional behaviours and their dynamics in wide businesses, online and social communities. The inadequacy of related techniques for modelling and discovering complex relations in behaviour analysis and data mining limits the instant detection and effective intervention on suspicious group behaviours. This project will invent effective theories and algorithms for representing and learning diverse behavior interaction relations, their influence and evolution in large groups. The outcomes will advance complex relation learning and behaviour analysis, deepen the understanding of group events and activities, and safeguard businesses, online and social communities.
