Leveraging Big Data in port state control: An analysis of port state control data and its potential for governance and transparency in the shipping industry by Dimitrios Ampatzidis

“…Thus, from the scope of Big Data, PSC should exhibit volume, velocity, variety, value, and complexity to support in the best possible way both officers ashore and on board to maintain the vessel in the best possible conditions for sailing. For the above purpose, this paper employs Big Data theories broadly used within the academic and business environment on datasets characteristics and how to access the value from Big Data and Analytics. …”

A TDV attention-based BiGRU network for AIS-based vessel trajectory prediction by Jin Chen, Jixin Zhang, Hao Chen, Yong Zhao, Hongdong Wang

“…Summary: Automatic identification system (AIS) is a vessel-based system for the automatic broadcast and reception of vessel information, and it also supports data for trajectory prediction. Since the vessel’s sailing route is flexible and changeable and the AIS broadcast is unconfirmed, the trajectory varies greatly and the original AIS data contains some noisy trajectory, which leads to low prediction accuracy and stability. …”

The Sea Travel by Synesius by M.V. Griger

“…The following conclusions have been made: 1) sailing remained an important occupation of Jews in Alexandria; 2) on the one hand, the onomastic data prove that Jews of the Eastern Mediterranean were still under the Greek cultural influence; 3) on the other hand, numerous evidence suggest that Jews not only adhered to their religion, but already knew the rabbinic version of Judaism; 4) Synesius’s letter shows the process of development of a new image of the Jew, in which the ancient anti-Jewish Hellenistic tradition synthesized with the Christian knowledge of the Jewish history. …”
