A Collision Avoidance Method for Intelligent Ship Based on the Improved Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm

open access: yesJournal of Robotics, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The bacterial foraging optimization algorithm (BFOA) is an intelligent population optimization algorithm widely used in collision avoidance problems; however, the BFOA is inappropriate for the intelligent ship collision avoidance planning with high safety requirements because BFOA converges slowly, optimizes inaccurately, and has low stability.

An Optimized Collision Avoidance Decision‐Making System for Autonomous Ships under Human‐Machine Cooperation Situations

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASSs) are attracting increasing attention in recent years as it brings new opportunities for water transportation. Previous studies aim to propose fully autonomous system on collision avoidance decisions and operations, either focus on supporting conflict detection or providing with collision avoidance decisions ...

Self-Positioning Smart Buoys, The \u27Un-Buoy\u27 Solution: Logistic Considerations Using Autonomous Surface Craft Technology and Improved Communications Infrastructure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Moored buoys have long served national interests, but incur high development, construction, installation, and maintenance costs. Buoys which drift off-location can pose hazards to mariners, and in coastal waters may cause environmental damage.

The Further Studies On The COLREGs (Collision Regulations)

open access: yesTransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation, 2015
The collision risk is one of the major reasons that threaten safety at sea. The Collision Regulations (COLREGs) is the essential international arrangement which regulates the rules of the roads at sea. Being also a legal document, the language of the COLREGs is not so apparent for the end users (navigators) and this cause some misunderstandings and ...

COLREGs in STCW Convention

open access: yesPomorski zbornik, 2018
Studies have shown that vessel collisions have been identified as one of the most frequent type of accidents. According to some authors, the main reason for that is the lack of understanding or a wrong interpretation of International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.
