Engaging Digital Objects. This project aims to improve digital accessibility of the Powerhouse Museum's collection using gamified online data collection and neurocomputational analysis methods. Our interdisciplinary approach will model how public users intuitively categorise objects in the online collection, enhancing the Powerhouse database with novel, user-relevant terms that improve search performance and enhance connectivity between objects. Outcomes include a more engaging online experience that benefits diverse audiences by enabling both visual and text-based exploration. Enhancing Powerhouse’s capacity to inspire audiences will contribute to an energised national science system essential for Australian wellbeing and the growth of a STEM-skilled workforce.. Scheme: Linkage Projects. Field: 5202 - Biological Psychology. Lead: Dr Genevieve Quek
