Intelligent Maritime Navigation

This book presents a systematic scheme of intelligent ship navigation using automatic identification system (AIS). This book introduces several AIS innovations in navigation by following the streamline from AIS data collection, processing, analysis, to knowledge discovery, to decision support. The special features of the book include rich data processing examples, state-of-the-art data analysis and data-driven modeling approaches, and various detailed case studies. This book is suitable for readers with engineering background, especially for researchers focused on intelligent ship transport systems.
