We discuss novel approaches to the control of seaweed tangle formations in stirrer cultivation. Cultivating seaweed is one important way to avoid such formation. Because defining such formation is difficult based on human recognition alone, there is currently no quantitative evaluation criterion for formation. We develop physical simulation for analyzing formations in a water flow field and model three factors – physical, geometric and time – for characterizing formations. Our criterion is that formations are created by using these factors as input to a nonlinear support vector machine. To show the effectiveness of our simulation and criteria, we confirm the control effects of the water flow in simulation and the real world. Results show that our simulation model is useful for avoiding such formation in the real world.
