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 ...
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 ...
Prediction of rendezvous in maritime situational awareness
(CMRE, 2019/05)
In this work, we consider the problem of algorithmically predicting rendezvous among vessels based on their trajectory forecasts in a maritime environment. The problem is treated as hypothesis testing on the expected value ...
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 ...
Consistent estimation of randomly sampled Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process long-run mean for long-term target state prediction
(CMRE, 2019/06)
In this letter, we study the problem of estimating the long-run mean of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) stochastic process and its effect on the long-term prediction of future vessel states, which is a crucial problem for ...
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 ...
Model performance assessment for long-term vessel prediction using HFSW radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Vessels in open seas are seldom continuously observed. Thus, the problem of long-term vessel prediction becomes crucial. This paper focuses its attention on the performance assessment of the Ornstein- Uhlenbeck target ...
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 ...
Data driven vessel trajectory forecasting using stochastic generative models
(2019/05)
In this work, we propose a data driven trajectory forecasting algorithm that utilizes both recorded historical and streaming trajectory observations. The algorithm performs Bayesian inference on a directed graph the walks ...
Validation of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck route propagation model in the Mediterranean Sea
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Traffic route analysis and prediction are both crucial to maritime security. The ability to predict a vessel position in the future is essential to provide information on upcoming events. However, accurate prediction along ...
