    Abstract:
    The prosperity of artificial intelligence has aroused intensive interests in intelligent/autonomous navigation, in which path prediction is a key functionality for decision supports, e.g. route planning, collision warning, and traffic regulation. For maritime intelligence, Automatic Identification System (AIS) plays an important role because it recently has been made compulsory for large international commercial vessels and is able to provide nearly real-time information of the vessel. Therefore AIS data based vessel path prediction is a promising way in future maritime intelligence. However, real-world AIS data collected online are just highly irregular trajectory segments (AIS message sequences) from different types of vessels and geographical regions, with possibly very low data quality. So even there are some works studying how to build a path prediction model using historical AIS data, but still, it is a very challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive framework to model massive historical AIS trajectory segments for accurate vessel path prediction. Experimental comparisons with existing popular methods are made to validate the proposed approach and results show that our approach could outperform the baseline methods by a wide margin.

    The establishment of ship trajectory prediction is critical in analyzing trajectory data. It serves as a critical reference point for identifying abnormal behavior and potential collision risks for ships. Accurate and real-time ship trajectory prediction is essential during navigation. Since the timing of automatic identification system (AIS) data is irregular, traditional methods usually use time calibration to simulate the data of uniform sequencing before analysis. Inevitably, this increases the chances of error and time delays. To address this issue, we propose a time-aware LSTM (T-LSTM) single-ship trajectory model combined with the generative adversarial network (GAN) to predict multiple ship trajectories. These analysis methods are capable of directly analyzing AIS data and have demonstrated better performance in both single-ship and multi-ship trajectories. Our experimental results show that the proposed method achieves high accuracy and can meet the practical navigation requirements of ships.

    Automatic Identification System (AIS) data-supported ship trajectory analysis consistently helps maritime regulations and practitioners make reasonable traffic controlling and management decisions. Significant attentions are paid to obtain an accurate ship trajectory by learning data feature patterns in a feedforward manner. A ship may change her moving status to avoid potential traffic accident in inland waterways, and thus, the ship trajectory variation pattern may differ from previous data samples. The study proposes a novel ship trajectory exploitation and prediction framework with the help of the bidirectional long short-term memory (LSTM) (Bi-LSTM) model, which extracts intrinsic ship trajectory features with feedforward and backward manners. We have evaluated the proposed ship trajectory performance with single and multiple ship scenarios. The indicators of mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and mean square error (MSE) suggest that the proposed Bi-LSTM model can obtained satisfied ship trajectory prediction performance.

    With the mandatory installation of automatic identification system (AIS) equipment on various vessels, a large amount of vessel trajectory data is collected. It has been widely used for maritime data mining in practice. In this paper, we aim to discover anomalous trajectory patterns from AIS-based vessel trajectories, for example, automatically detecting vessel frauds, and recognizing the vessels navigating in the wrong direction. To achieve the objective, we first reconstruct the vessel trajectories using cubic splines interpolation. We then group all vessel trajectories crossing the same source-destination cell and represent each vessel trajectory as a sequence of symbols. The Isolation-Based Anomalous Vessel Trajectory (IAVT) detection method is proposed in this work, which could achieve remarkable detection performance. Finally, we propose to implement visualization experiments on realistic and simulated datasets to illustrate the superior performance of the proposed method.

    The common prosperity in the new era is rich in connotation, obvious in characteristics and close in logic, which is mainly summarized as “six aspects”. The connotation characteristics of common prosperity in the new era are all-round prosperity, all-round prosperity, gradual prosperity, differential prosperity, co-construction and sharing, and hard work and innovation. In terms of common prosperity in the new era, the realization of universal prosperity is its primary connotation, the realization of comprehensive prosperity is its development requirement, the gradual prosperity is its only way, the differential prosperity is its realistic attribution, the co-construction and sharing is its remarkable feature, and the hard work and innovation is its important principle.

    Earlier prosperity”and“latter prosperity”is the strategy with Chinese characteristics of becoming rich in the different time.Because“common prosperity”is one of socialist values,some people turning into prosperous sooner than others should push forward “latter prosperity”,namely “earlier prosperity with latter prosperity.” The people who had become rich in advance could not be defined to bring along the behind by law,but the ones can be urged by the force of morals.The general project of“running state affairs by morals”emerges,as the times demand.

    Abstract A new prosperity gospel is emerging in the Philippines. We call it the prosperity ethic. Its dimensions set it apart from the previous incarnation of the prosperity gospel, which emphasized tithing and confessing. Specifically, the prosperity ethic values upward mobility and uses biblical principles for the acquisition of practical skills to become rich. We make our case by drawing on the writings of Bo Sanchez and Chinkee Tan, two of the most influential prosperity-oriented preachers in the country. The prosperity ethic has three dimensions: the morality of wealth (believing right), the prescribed mindset (thinking right), and the practical skills to accumulate wealth (doing it right). In the latter part we explain the rise of the prosperity ethic by relating it to major shifts in the economy since the 1990s. For sanctifying individual hard work and desire, the new prosperity gospel is emblematic of neoliberal Christianity in the Philippines today.

    Intelligent maritime transportation is one of the most promising enabling technologies for promoting trade efficiency and releasing the physical labor force. The trajectory prediction method is the foundation to guarantee collision avoidance and route optimization for ship transportation. This article proposes a bidirectional data-driven trajectory prediction method based on Automatic Identification System (AIS) spatio-temporal data to improve the accuracy of ship trajectory prediction and reduce the risk of accidents. Our study constructs an encoder-decoder network driven by a forward and reverse comprehensive historical trajectory and then fuses the characteristics of the sub-network to predict the ship trajectory. The AIS historical trajectory data of US West Coast ships are employed to investigate the feasibility of the proposed method. Compared with the current methods, the proposed approach lessens the prediction error by studying the comprehensive historical trajectory, and 60.28% has reduced the average prediction error. The ocean and port trajectory data are analyzed in maritime transportation before and after COVID-19. The prediction error in the port area is reduced by 95.17% than the data before the epidemic. Our work helps the prediction of maritime ship trajectory, provides valuable services for maritime safety, and performs detailed insights for the analysis of trade conditions in different sea areas before and after the epidemic.
