Abstract

The implementation of ship speed control is extremely important in the shipping industry. It is affected by various factors, such as water depth, obstacles, and environmental factors. Traditional speed control methods only consider geographical constraints, which is difficult to achieve the goal of safe navigation and maritime traffic efficiency simultaneously. Accordingly, a two-stage speed dynamic control model is proposed in this study. In the first stage, certain safety navigation factors, including obstacles, sea environment conditions, and limit of estimated time of arrival to destination port, are considered. In the second stage, the speed dynamic control model considering safety and environmental factors is established by combining multisource data and particle swarm optimisation algorithm. The model’s superiority and advantage are validated by experiments conducted on an ocean-going ship. The experimental results show that the proposed dynamic speed control model can reduce the ship’s fuel consumption and improve energy efficiency while ensuring the safety navigation. The study is anticipated to be used as a reference for speed dynamic control.

  • ML can be used in ship navigation to learn from past experiences and improve navigation in real-time.

    “ML can be used in ship navigation to learn from past experiences and improve navigation in real-time [104] .”
  • ML algorithms can learn from previous ship routes and weather conditions to make more accurate predictions about future routes.

    “For example, ML algorithms can learn from previous ship routes and weather conditions to make more accurate predictions about future routes.”

    From Artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning in advanced robotics, a review (2023) · cites this paper as [104]

    Section 2.1 discusses planning routes around weather and sea conditions, while Section 6.1 uses supervised learning to predict fuel consumption—not future routes. Searches for historical routes, weather inputs, and machine-learning route prediction found no passage stating the attributed claim. Section 8 says the study uses a fixed route and proposes developing a multiple-route model in future work. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
