Big Data for Brain Traffic Integration
Speaker: Prof Hussein Abbass, the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Canberra at the Australian Defence Force Academy
Date: Friday 22 November 2013
Time: 2.00pm to 3.00pm
Location: UTS CB02.04.10
Seminar Chairman: Professor Longbing Cao, Director, Advanced Analytics Institute (AAi) -Longbing.Cao@uts.edu.au
Abstract: This talk will summarise the most recent experiment I did in Europe on real-time data mining from human (air traffic controllers) brain data and air traffic data as part of the Computational Red Teaming (CRT) work. For system designers, CRT is the art of ethical attacks. For people in Analytics, CRT is the analytics of risk and challenge. Challenges in designing and conducting human-based experiments will be discussed, and the complexity of the terabytes of data collected will be shared.
