Creating the social genome: Advanced techniques for linking dynamic data

Social genomes are the digital footprints of our society. They are the basis of population informatics, which isrevolutionising how researchers in various domains conduct studies, governments plan services and expenditures, and businesses advertise and interact with their customers. A core requirement of populationinformatics is the linking of large dynamic databases that contain details about people from diverse sources. Thisproject aims to develop novel efficient and effective models and techniques that enable record linkage of largedynamic databases while preserving the privacy of sensitive personal data. The expected outcomes will provide novel solutions to the challenges of population informatics faced by Australian organisations.
