自律分散型船舶運航シミュレータを用いた知識獲得 : プロトタイプシミュレータの設計および開発

抄録

This paper deals with knowledge acquisition from ship operators' know-how that is related to ship collision avoidance. A new knowledge acquisition method is proposed that utilizes an autonomous distributed simulator and a data-mining algorithm. The method consists of five operations : (1) Setting of knowledge base for each ship, (2) Simulation of ship operation, (3) Storage of simulation results, (4) Data mining for extraction of a performance feature, (5) Evaluation of the performance feature. The prototype simulator is composed of three functions : ship operation, communication network and data mining. The prototype simulator is designed to perform as a knowledge acquisition tool. Evaluations of the prototype simulator performance and indispensable simulator functions are discussed.
