This project aims to take advantage of the growing data set of gravitational-wave observations, which ushered in a new field of gravitational-wave astronomy, to answer fundamental questions in astrophysics. This project will combine state-of-the art theoretical modelling with innovative machine learning techniques in order to explore how the Universe makes merging black holes and neutron stars, and what they tell us about the lives and deaths of the most elusive but incredibly important massive stars. This will strengthen Australia's role in the emerging field of gravitational-wave astronomy and provide broad benefits through transferrable machine learning techniques, collaboration building, and big data training.

该项目旨在利用不断增长的引力波观测数据集，从而开创了引力波天文学的新领域，以回答天体物理学中的基本问题。 该项目将联合收割机最先进的理论建模与创新的机器学习技术相结合，以探索宇宙如何合并黑洞和中子星，以及它们告诉我们关于最难以捉摸但非常重要的大质量恒星的生命和死亡。 这将加强澳大利亚在新兴的引力波天文学领域的作用，并通过可转移的机器学习技术、协作建设和大数据培训提供广泛的利益。
