The automatic identification system (AIS) tracks vessel movement by means of electronic
exchange of navigation data between vessels, with onboard transceiver, terrestrial, and/or …

Efficient marine navigation through obstructions is still one of the many problems faced by
the mariner. Many accidents can be traced to human error, recently increased traffic …

A traditional A-Star (A*) algorithm generates an optimal path by minimizing the path cost. For
a vessel, factors of path length, obstacle collision risk, traffic separation rule and …

Security of (semi)-autonomous vehicles is a growing concern, first, due to the increased
exposure of the functionality to potential attackers; second, due to the reliance of …

In this paper, we propose an automatic route design method based on simple recurrent unit
(SRU) and automatic identification system (AIS) data. Laplacian eigen maps and Gaussian …

The adoption of a robust collision avoidance module is required to realise fully autonomous
Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs). In this work, collision detection and path planning …

Effective and practical collision avoidance manoeuvres through traffic are still one of the
major problems hindering the development and adoption of a fully autonomous vessel …

Autonomous decision-making for ships to avoid collision is core to the autonomous
navigation of intelligent ships. In recent years, related research has shown explosive growth …

This study suggests a new approach based on Theta* algorithm to create paths in real-time,
considering both angular rate (yaw rate) and heading angle of unmanned surface vehicles …

Appropriate decision-making is essential to prevent ship collisions and further ensure
navigational safety at sea. Current research on collision avoidance decision-making …
