Activities of the Mathematics Research Lab and Teaching Team
Celebration of Women in Australian Mathematical SciencesThe WIMSIG Conference 2021 (postponed from 2020) will now be taking place at a range of “localhubs” on Friday 1st October this year. See flyer This one-day conference will have a mixture of local (in-person) activities and joint online activities.Our local Victorian hub at Monash University will be hosting […]
Vicky and Rasul have recently won a Bronze medal in IEEE CEC/GECCO 2021 Competition on “Evolutionary Computation in the Energy Domain: Smart Grid Applications”. The competition has two independent tracks, each tackling an optimisation problem in the energy domain. Participants of the competition could use different evolutionary algorithms for each track (if they participate in […]
ARC Discovery Project 2021 – Gleb Beliakov, Marek Gagolewski and Simon James from the maths team with colleague Enrique Herrera-Viedma from University of Granada. This project addresses a key issue in automated decision making: explaining how a decision was reached by a computer system to its users. Its aim is to progress towards a new […]
This is a video submission to ACEMS for Women in Maths day, 2020 with a poem written by Kerri Morgan and Elicia Lanham. Footage from the video was incorporated into a video by Tim Macuga prepared for ACEMS.
Wednesday 13 May 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Joanne Hall from RMIT to present some of her recent research on graduate skills. Abstract Technical cyber-defence is often insufficient to protect a system as most cyber security incidences involve a human who takes an erroneous action or regrettable decision. To address […]
Wednesday 6 May 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Daniel Horsley from the School of Mathematics at Monash University to share his research. Abstract Covering arrays are combinatorial objects used for designing testing procedures to determine whether faults are present in complex systems. In particular, they are used extensively in software […]
Friday 14 February 2020 – 11:00am – 12:00pm The Mathematics Research Lab welcomes Radko Mesiar from STU in Bratislava to present his research (part of a double seminar). Abstract We bring an overview of some recent new concepts, results and trends in the aggregation theory. In particular, we focus on monotonicity issues in aggregation, including […]
Friday 14 February 2020 – 10:00am – 11:00am The Mathematics Research welcomes Andreas Stathopoulos from College of William and Mary to present his research (part of a double session). Abstract The singular value decomposition (SVD) is one of the core computations of today’s scien- tiic applications and data analysis tools. The main goal is to […]
Gleb Beliakov, Marek Gagolewski, Simon James Journal of Information Sciences https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2019.11.024 Abstract The Sugeno integral is an expressive aggregation function with potential applications across a range of decision contexts. Its calculation requires only the lattice minimum and maximum operations, making it particularly suited to ordinal data and robust to scale transformations. However, for practical use […]
Funded by DSTG ALGORA Vicky Mak-Hau and Sergey Polyakovskiy This project aims to develop a highly intelligent planning tool that integrates simulation, optimisation and data analysis for the daily scheduling of training lessons while, at the same time, allocate limited resources under complex resource restrictions.
