Complex Networks and Systems Theory for the Public Information Environment. This project aims to investigate how emergent threats, such as disinformation and coordinated influence campaigns, impact the broad environment in which the general public shares and consumes information. This will be done by advancing mathematical models that can study the impact of such threats on the information environment, using an interdisciplinary array of techniques from complex networks, systems theory, and social psychology. Expected outcomes include development of new strategies for securing the information environment, and building Australia’s capacity to address future threats. Significant benefits are expected, including expert advice for Australian policymakers and a more secure information environment for all Australians. Field of research: 4901 - Applied Mathematics The information environment is the complex socio-technological system through which society’s citizens generate, consume and share information, and participate in public discourse. In Australia and other democratic countries, the information environment faces sustained and increasingly sophisticated foreign influence and disinformation threats. Currently, there are no tools to investigate how such threats to the information environment can undermine and damage Australian society. This project will develop new mathematical models to study the impact of such threats, and design whole-of-system strategies to increase the robustness and resilience of the information environment against them. The knowledge generated will fill a critical gap, complementing existing research on misinformation detection and individual-based interventions. The outcomes of this research have strong potential to be implemented by collaborators in Australian Defence, through knowledge transfer, modelling tools and advice to government stakeholders to enhance situational awareness and decision making. The new knowledge and end-user applications will bring significant social, economic, and cultural benefits to Australia by contributing to a secure information environment for all Australians to enjoy and access. The project will also address a current critical gap in Australia’s sovereign capabilities to protect its information environment by building domestic capacity and expertise.

Improving face identification by human-algorithm teams. This project aims to investigate whether humans can use facial recognition technology effectively to assist in face identification tasks. Using innovative experimental methods from cognitive psychology, this project will test the technology-assisted face identification accuracy of humans under many varied conditions, generating vital new knowledge about face identification and the way humans use automated decision-aids. Expected outcomes include developing world first methods to improve technology-assisted face identification accuracy and creating evidence-based recommendations for effective human use of this important technology. Improving identification accuracy could significantly benefit society by reducing crime and wrongful arrests. Field of research: 5204 - Cognitive and Computational Psychology Humans are using facial recognition systems to help identify individuals, but while these systems are generally very accurate, they still make mistakes. In theory, the human user is supposed to correct any errors before they are acted on. But humans are surprisingly bad at identifying unfamiliar faces, making error detection a challenging task. Identification errors – like mistaking two different people to be the same person - lead to terrible consequences, including identity crime (estimated to cost the Australian economy $3.1bn annually), and the arrest of innocent civilians for crimes they did not commit. This project will investigate the accuracy of identification decisions made by humans when assisted by facial recognition systems, addressing a glaring gap in our understanding of how well this technology works alongside human judgment. This research will develop methods aimed at improving the identification accuracy of humans when using facial recognition technology. Findings will be shared with law enforcement agencies and industry groups that already use this important technology to aid their decision-making, to potentially influence and improve the way these systems are used. These findings may also shape future government legislation related to facial recognition technology. By improving our understanding of the way humans use facial recognition technology, this project has the potential to make our society safer by reducing crime and protecting civil liberties.

Preparing Australia for a fiery future: Five strategies to guide law reform. Australia does not have the necessary legal frameworks to proactively mitigate bushfire risks. This project aims to support effective, equitable, and timely fire mitigation through law reform. By pioneering holistic assessment of adaptation in state fire laws, and drawing novel insights from international case studies (Canada, Spain and USA) and active stakeholder input, expected outcomes include practical pathways for law reform and new international networks for exchanging knowledge. Outputs to guide more effective implementation of evidence-based legal reform are expected to assist policy makers to enact improved fire prevention, benefitting fire agencies, communities, and ecosystems to thrive in a future increasingly defined by fire. Field of research: 4802 - Environmental and Resources Law Australia is a fire-prone continent. Fire seasons are getting worse and, in the coming years, more people will die, homes will burn and local and regional economies may collapse. Australia’s bushfire laws and policies are supposed to help governments and communities prevent catastrophic fires and protect people, nature and economies, but these laws are criticised as ineffective, too complex, and too heavily focused on the past instead of helping us to adapt to a changing future. This project aims to address a significant knowledge gap by examining what better bushfire laws would look like in Australia. It will (i) assess how existing laws could better support adaptation to more severe bushfires; and (ii) map pathways from where we are now, to the better, future-oriented laws that we need. This project offers substantial benefits to Australian governments, public and private land managers and natural environments. By directly informing legal reforms to help Australians better prepare for future fires - through submissions, workshops and a detailed online compendium - this project will provide tailored support to develop laws that protect people, nature and economies. This project will engage with governments and experts in Australia and overseas through workshops, interviews and detailed submissions to government inquiries, and capitalises on a strong appetite for legal reform to tackle this urgent national priority of promoting adaptation to an increasingly flammable future.
