Automatic Berthing Control of Ship Using Adaptive Neural Networks

open access: yesJournal of Navigation and Port Research, 2007
In this paper, an adaptive neural network controller and its application to automatic berthing control of ship is presented. The neural network controller is trained online using adaptive interaction technique without any teaching data and off-line training phase.

DeepZoo: A cost‐effective and modular sampler for ecological studies in the deep ocean

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 10, Page 2895-2908, October 2026.
Abstract Understanding the structure and dynamics of deep‐ocean communities requires effective sampling of pelagic organisms in near‐bottom waters. These dispersive organisms contribute to biodiversity, connectivity and ecosystem recovery. Yet, current sampling methods remain constrained by size, cost, and depth, leaving key questions unanswered in ...

From Ship to Shore: A Review of Vessel‐To‐Grid Bidirectional Charging for Sustainable Maritime Transport

open access: yesEcoEnergy, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2026.
As maritime transport electrifies, bidirectional charging (V2G) offers a dual‐purpose solution for energy resilience and economic viability. This work identifies key technological advancements and lifecycle challenges utilizing practical case studies to demonstrate how V2G systems can drive decarbonization and grid stability in the marine sector ...

Network analysis of vessel movements facilitates rapid response to invasive marine species incursion

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study presents a transferable framework for prioritising surveillance and early detection efforts for IAS. By integrating spatial data on vessel movements with species traits, managers can identify sites with a high relative incursion likelihood and increase detection speed.

Applications of artificial intelligence in ship berthing: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
855-863Ship berthing operations in restricted waters such as ports requires the accurate use of onboard-vessel equipment such as rudder, thrusters, and main propulsions. For big ships, the assistance of exterior supports such as tugboats are necessary,

A Hybrid A*‐APF Path Planning Method for Ships Entering the Berthing Waters

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This paper presents a two‐stage hybrid path planning approach for ship berthing: the first stage builds an accurate environmental model based on berth features and the second stage combines an improved A* algorithm (with directional consistency penalty) and the artificial potential field method to generate feasible paths and enhance local obstacle ...

Graph Neural Network‐Enabled Robust AIS/Radar Data Association for Intelligent Monitoring of Ship Safety

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
We propose a graph neural network (GNN)‐enabled robust AIS/radar data association method to address limitations of existing methods, that is, time asynchrony, spatial differences, and environmental noises. Our novel computational method performs well in efficiency and accuracy, and promotes the safety monitoring capabilities of ships in the shipping ...
