description The successful emergence of real-time positioning systems in the maritime domain has favored the development of data infrastructures that provide valuable monitoring and decision-aided systems. However, there is still a need for the development of data mining approaches oriented to the detection of specific patterns such as unusual ship behaviors and collision risks. This research introduces a CSBP (complex ship behavioral pattern) mining model aiming at the detection of ship patterns. The modeling approach first integrates ship trajectories from automatic identification system (AIS) historical data, then categorizes different vessels’ navigation behaviors, and introduces a visual-oriented framework to characterize and highlight such patterns. The potential of the model is illustrated by a case study applied to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang waters in China. The results show that the CSBP mining model can highlight complex ships’ behavioral patterns over long periods, thus providing a valuable environment for supporting ship traffic management and preventing maritime accidents.
