An Improved Differential Evolution Algorithm for Maritime Collision Avoidance Route Planning

Abstract

High accuracy navigation and surveillance systems are pivotal to ensure efficient ship route planning and marine safety. Based on existing ship navigation and maritime collision prevention rules, an improved approach for collision avoidance route planning using a differential evolution algorithm was developed. Simulation results show that the algorithm is capable of significantly enhancing the optimized route over current methods. It has the potential to be used as a tool to generate optimal vessel routing in the presence of conflicts.

Application of Information Technologies and Algorithms in Ship Passage Planning

“…A drawback in some EAs [7,10,13] is that they fail to take into account the adverse effects of heavy weather. In this particular case it is safe to divide the evolutionary algorithms into two major categories:…”
