Assessing the quality of cluster analysis
Machine learning cluster methods are common classification methods, but methods for assessing performance are limited as are methods for explaining how they work. Exploring methods for both assessing and explaining performance are the subject of this research with application to real-world contexts with the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

Explainability of outlier detection methods
Outliers are anomalous observations in a data set that are "outside the norm" of what would be expected. Identifying outliers is an important part of exploratory data analysis and data analysis in general. It is often a challenging problem and calls for advanced methods and approaches, including machine learning-based tools. As methods become more and more complex, their explainability becomes more difficult and more important. This research project will look at all aspects of explainability and explore new approaches and …
