This project will develop innovative techniques to efficiently and effectively distill truthful information from the
inherently unreliable and large-scale Web environment, where misinformation has been widely regarded as a
grand challenge for the next decade. The results of this project will not only maintain Australia’s leadership in this
frontier research area, but also support many important applications that safeguard Australian people and
economy such as emergency and disaster management and online healthcare. This project also serves as an
excellent vehicle for the education and training of Australia’s next generation of scholars and engineers
