An overview of application of artificial neural networks in modeling motions of autonomous vessel

EDN: UFKSYW

Abstract

   The relevance of the chosen research topic is explained by the active development of autonomous navigation and the need to solve problems arising during the operation of marine autonomous surface ships.

   This paper provides an overview of some models for predicting motions of a ship in irregular waves, built on the basis of artificial neural networks. The practical advantage of the considered approaches lies in the possibility of their application as part of relatively low-performance onboard computing systems of autonomous ships, where it is economically impractical or technically impossible to place high-performance computing clusters, and the calculation results should be obtained in real time. It is concluded that the calculation results obtained using the considered models have a significant error in predicting the ship's motions parameters near the extremes of the curve of the angles of rolling and pitching, which calls into question the safety of their application.
