Studies on the Application of Bayesian Network in the Cause Analysis of Ship Collision

As an important means of logistics, shipping plays an important role in international trade. However, the growth of traffic density has increased the ship traffic accidents and collision takes up a greater portion. This paper renders the analysis of ship collision cases in recent years and summarizes the causes. By using the basic theory of Bayesian network, the paper sets up the collision cause model. The model can be used in the cause analysis in the probability of ship collision and prediction of accident probability in practice and thus effectively reduce the ship collision accidents.
