Performance assessment of vessel dynamic models for long-term prediction using heterogeneous data
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Ship traffic monitoring is a foundation for many maritime security domains, and monitoring system specifications underscore the necessity to track vessels beyond territorial waters. However, vessels in open seas are seldom ...
Detecting anomalous deviations from standard maritime routes using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process
(CMRE, 2019/05)
A novel anomaly detection procedure based on the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) mean-reverting stochastic process is presented. The considered anomaly is a vessel that deviates from a planned route, changing its nominal velocity ...
Hybrid Bernoulli filtering for detection and tracking of anomalous path deviations
(CMRE, 2019/05)
This paper presents a solution to the problem of sequential joint anomaly detection and tracking of a target subject to switching unknown path deviations. Based on a dynamic model described by Ornstein- Uhlenbeck (OU) ...
Maritime situational awareness use cases enabled by space-borne sensors
(CMRE, 2019/06)
This paper discusses a technique for predicting a vessel?s position over a long time horizon with much lower uncertainty than current methods. Lowering the uncertainty of long-range prediction is a key challenge in maritime ...
Long-term vessel kinematics prediction exploiting mean-reverting processes
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Long-term target state estimation of non-manoeuvring targets, such as vessels under way in open sea, is crucial for maritime security. The dynamics of non-manoeuvring targets is traditionally modelled with a white noise ...
Anomaly detection and tracking based on mean-reverting processes with unknown parameters
(CMRE, 2019/05)
Piecewise mean-reverting stochastic processes have been recently proposed and validated as an effective model for long-term object prediction. In this paper, we exploit the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) dynamic model to represent ...
Modeling vessel kinematics using a stochastic mean-reverting process for a long-term prediction
(CMRE, 2019/06)
We present a novel method for predicting long-term target states based on mean-reverting stochastic processes. We use the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process, leading to a revised target state equation and to a time scaling ...
Automated port traffic statistics: from raw data to visualization
(CMRE, 2017/11)
We describe how we leveraged best practices in big data processing pipeline design and visual analytics to prototype the Maritime Patterns-of-Life Information Service (MPoLIS), an information product currently under ...
Bayesian track-to-graph association for maritime traffic monitoring
(CMRE, 2019/05)
We present a hypothesis test to associate ship track measurements to an edge of a given graph that statistically models common traffic routes in a given area of interest. The association algorithm is based on the hypothesis ...
Scalable distributed change detection and its application to maritime traffic
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Building on a novel methodology based on the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process to perform accurate long-term predictions of future positions of ships at sea, we present a statistical approach to the detection of abrupt changes ...
