선박을 운항함에 있어 최적항로를 결정하는 것은 항해시간과 연료 소모를 줄이는 중요한 요인 중의 하나이다. 기존에는 항로를 결정하기 위해 항해사의 전문적인 지식이 요구되지만 이러한 방법은 최적의 항로라고 판단하기 어렵다. 따라서 연료비 절감과 선박의 안전을 고려한 최적의 항로를 생성할 필요가 있다. 연료 소모량 혹은 항해시간을 최소화하기 위해서 에이스타 알고리즘, Dijkstra 알고리즘을 적용한 연구가 있다. 하지만 이러한 연구들은 최단거리만 구할 뿐 선박의 안전, 해상상태 등을 고려하지 못한다. 이를 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 강화학습 알고리즘을 적용하고자한다. 강화학습 알고리즘은 앞으로 누적 될 보상을 최대화 하는 행동으로 정책을 찾는 방법으로, 본 연구에서는 강화학습 알고리즘의 하나인 Q-learning을 사용하여 선박의 안전을 고려한 최적의 항로를 생성하는 기법을 제안 하고자 한다.

In the process of ship building, it is known that the maintenance of working period and saving cost are one of the important part during the logistics of blocks transportation. Precise operational planning inside the shipyard plays a big role for a smooth transportation of blocks. But many problems arise in the process of block transportation such as the inevitable road damage during the transportation of the blocks, unpredictable stockyard utilization of the road associated with a particular lot number, addition of unplanned blocks. Therefore, operational plan needs to be re-established frequently in real time for an efficient block management. In order to find the shortest path between lot numbers, there are several representative methods such as Floyd algorithm that has the characteristics of many-to-many mapping, Dijkstra algorithm that has the characteristic of one-to-many mapping, and the A* algorithm which has the one-to-one mapping, but many authors have published without the mutual comparisons of these algorithms. In this study, some appropriate comparison have been reviewed about the advantages and disadvantages of these algorithms in terms of precision and cost analysis of calculating the paths and planning system to operate the transporters. The flexible operating plan is proposed to handle a situation such as damaged path, changing process during block transportation. In addition, an operational algorithm of a vacant transporter is proposed to cover the shortest path in a minimum time considering the situation of transporter rotation for practical use.
