Preventing catastrophic sewer pipe failure

In partnership with Sydney Water, UTS researchers have built an innovative remote-controlled robot to traverse the pipes beneath our feet and identify dangerous concrete corrosion.

Seafood traceability and quality assurance

An UTS collaboration with Sydney Fish Market is harnessing blockchain technology to help online seafood buyers track the catch through the supply-chain and verify fish origin and freshness.

Failure isn’t an option for pipes

It’s a mammoth and expensive task to maintain the infrastructure that delivers perhaps the most essential of our essential services: water. But predictive analytics is saving money, water and disruption by helping utilities pinpoint the pipes in their networks at greatest risk of failure.

Big data for kids’ cancer

UTS’s Paul Kennedy and Dan Catchpoole from The Children’s Hospital at Westmead are using data science to improve treatments for kids with cancer. Their research will inform tailored treatments and help clinicians to make better decisions.

Data analytics for water security

A partnership between the UTS Advanced Analytics Institute and the NSW Department of Industries (Water) is resulting in more efficient management of water resources through the application of data analytics.

Helping children thrive

A team from the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences is collaborating with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, analysing data from studies all around the world to better understand the factors that prevent kids from thriving. Their aim? To develop evidence-based tools to identify the most effective strategies for intervention.

AI provides sweet results for Australian berry farms

Harvesting is one of the most expensive operations in commercial berry production, and one of the more complex to manage. Now, the power of data science and artificial intelligence (AI) is being applied to the process, with benefits for growers, the food supply chain – and berry lovers.
