Title: Radio-Frequency Machine Learning Techniques and Applications for Maritime Low-Resource Platforms
Abstract:
Building a powerful maritime nation has risen to the level of national strategy, and achieving maritime electromagnetic-spectrum monitoring and management is a critical component of the “digital” and “intelligent” ocean. The electromagnetic spectrum is indispensable for the operation of command, communication, and information systems. Maritime spectrum sensing relies on numerous sensing nodes, but, constrained by size, power, and cost, these nodes possess severely limited computational and storage resources, precluding the deployment of high-performance deep learning models. Consequently, capabilities for spectrum sensing, recognition, and control remain severely inadequate, rendering the development of spectrum-sensing models for resource-constrained environments a challenging research topic. This report systematically articulates, from the perspectives of data, models, and architecture, the concept of low-resource radio-frequency machine learning, the state of the art at home and abroad, the pertinent theoretical foundations and technological framework, and the key pathways for implementation. Our team is developing related devices and systems to enhance spectrum sensing and management capabilities for future unmanned maritime swarms.

Title: Research on Fault Diagnosis Methods for Tidal Current Energy Conversion system
Abstract:
Tidal current energy is green, renewable, with stable energy output and high energy density. However, the complex marine environment results in high operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, which has become one of the key factors impeding its popularization and application. Therefore, ensuring the efficient and reliable operation of tidal current energy conversion system is of great practical significance. This report presents the detection and diagnosis methods proposed by the our research team for blade adhesion damage, insulation system temperature rise, and inverter system of tidal current turbines under harsh sea conditions such as random turbulence and surges.

Title: Research on Extreme Value Prediction Methods for Ship Motions under Severe Sea Conditions
Abstract:
With the continuous increase in ship tonnage and the expansion of navigational areas, ships encounter increasingly severe sea conditions. Accurate prediction of the extreme values of ship motions under such harsh conditions is crucial for the safety of ship navigation and operations. This report proposes several extreme value prediction methods for ship motions, including methods based on spectral analysis, methods based on Volterra series, and methods based on large-scale model tests of offshore environments. The characteristics of these methods are summarized to provide guidance for ship design and navigational safety.
