Power prediction for a vessel without recorded data using data fusion from a fleet of vessels

作者:

Highlights:

• Neural networks are used due to the complexity of the interactions within the data.

• A fusion of data from different vessels extends the range of accurate extrapolation.

• Validates that ship powering can be predicted to a mean error of less than 2%.

• Achieves 4% error for prediction for vessels where there is no available data.

• Higher errors are shown for predictions outside of the common domain of the dataset.
