Constructing Knowledge Maps for Situation Awareness of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships

Many projects related to maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) have been proceeding to date, which promotes the commercialization of MASS. It is anticipated that there will be ships with different degrees of autonomy coexisting in a waterborne transport system (WTS) in the near future, forming a mixed waterborne transport system (MWTS). To...

Semantic Modeling of Ship Behavior in Cognitive Space

Ship behavior is the semantic expression of corresponding trajectory in spatial-temporal space. The intelligent identification of ship behavior is critical for safety supervision in the waterborne transport. In particular, the complicated behavior reflects the long-term intentions of a ship, but it is challenging to recognize it automatically...
