Prediction of ship collision risk based on CART

IET Intelligent Transport Systems, 2018
The primary function of a collision risk index is to determine the time when ships take action to avoid a collision. In this study, based on the complex non‐linear relationship between the collision risk degree and its influencing factors, classification and regression trees (CARTs) are applied to construct a prediction model for ship collision risk ...
