In the context of the rapid development of deep learning theory, predicting future motion states based on time series sequence data of ship trajectories can significantly improve the safety of the traffic environment. Considering the spatiotemporal correlation of AIS data, a trajectory time window panning and smoothing filtering method is proposed for the abnormal values existing in the trajectory data. The application of this method can effectively deal with the jump values and outliers in the trajectory data, make the trajectory smooth and continuous, and ensure the temporal order and integrity of the trajectory data. In this paper, for the features of spatiotemporal data of trajectories, the LSTM structure is integrated on the basis of the deep learning Transformer algorithm framework, abbreviated as TRFM-LS. The LSTM module can learn the temporal features of spatiotemporal data in the process of computing the target sequence, while the self-attention mechanism in Transformer can solve the drawback of applying LSTM to capture the sequence information weakly at a distance. The advantage of complementarity of the fusion model in the training process of trajectory sequences with respect to the long-range dependence of temporal and spatial features is realized. Finally, in the comparative analysis section of the error metrics, by comparing with current state-of-the-art methods, the algorithm in this paper is shown to have higher accuracy in predicting time series trajectory data. The research in this paper provides an early warning information reference for autonomous navigation and autonomous collision avoidance of ships in practice.
Ship trajectory data can be used in most marine-related research, and most ship trajectory data come from AIS. The large number of ships and the short reporting period of AIS have resulted in a huge amount of ship trajectory data, which has caused a certain amount of pressure on the relevant research. This paper proposes a direction-preserved vessel trajectory compression method based on Open Window, which can effectively retain the direction change feature points while ensuring the position error. In addition, the method can work in both offline and online modes. Also, the velocity threshold and low-speed redundancy points problems are considered. In order to verify the effect of the proposed method and the adaptability of the method to different feature data, a parallel experiment was performed on port water and coastal water datasets. The results show that our method can compress vessel trajectories while retaining the feature points. Meanwhile, by comparing it with the compression method that is based on distance thresholds, the vessel trajectory compress time is drastically reduced by up to 87.3% in the port water data. The research in this paper provides a new method through which to compress vessel trajectories for research in marine-related fields on vessel trajectory.
This study investigates the spatiotemporal density aggregation and pattern distribution of vessel traffic amidst bustling maritime logistics scenarios. Firstly, a relatively new spatiotemporal segmentation and reconstruction method is proposed for ship AIS trajectories to address trajectory disruptions caused by berthing, anchorage, and other factors. Subsequently, a trajectory filtering algorithm utilizing time window panning is introduced to mitigate position jumps and deviation errors in trajectory points, ensuring that the dynamic trajectory adheres to the spatiotemporal correlations of ship motion. Secondly, to establish a geographical spatial mapping of dynamic trajectories, spatial gridding is applied to maritime traffic areas. By associating the geographical space of traffic activities with the temporal attributes of dynamic trajectories, a dynamic trajectory temporal density model is constructed. Finally, a case study is conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method in identifying spatiotemporal patterns of maritime traffic and spatiotemporal density aggregation states. The results show that the proposed method can identify dynamic trajectory traffic patterns after the application of compression algorithms, providing a novel approach to studying the spatiotemporal aggregation of maritime traffic in the era of big data.
