The important field of research in ship operation is related to the high efficiency of transportation, the convenience of maneuvering ships and the safety of navigation. For these purposes, many intelligent technologies for ship automation have been required and studied. In this paper, we propose an intelligent voice instruction-based learning (VIBL) method and discuss the building of a ship's steering control system based on this method. The VIBL system concretely consists of two functions: a text conversion function where an instructor's inputted voice is recognized and converted to text, and a linguistic instruction based learning function where the text instruction is understood through a searching process of given meaning elements. As a study method, the fuzzy theory is adopted to build maneuvering models of steersmen and then the existing LIBL is improved and combined with the voice recognition technology to propose the VIBL. The ship steering control system combined with VIBL is tested in a ship maneuvering simulator and its validity is shown.

In this paper, we propose system that apply VIBL method to add speech recognition to LIBL method based on human s studying method to use natural language to steering system of ship, MERCS and winch appliances and use VIBL method to alternate process that linguistic instruction such as officer s steering instruction is achieved via ableman and control steering gear, MERCS and winch appliances. By specific method of study, ableman s suitable steering manufacturing model embodies intelligent steering gear controlling system that embody and language direction base studying method to present proper meaning element and evaluation rule to steering system of ship apply and respond more efficiently on voice instruction of commander using fuzzy inference rule. Also we embody system that recognize voice direction of commander and control MERCS and winch appliances. We embodied steering manufacturing model based on ableman s experience and presented rudder angle for intelligent steering system, compass bearing arrival time, evaluation rule to propose meaning element of stationary state and correct steerman manufacturing model rule using technique to recognize voice instruction of commander and change to text and fuzzy inference. Also we apply VIBL method to speech recognition ship control simulator and confirmed the effectiveness.

This paper presents a human friendly system using fuzzy inference as a Part of study to embody intelligent ship. We also build intelligent ship's steering system to take advantage of speech recognition that is a part of the human friendly interface. It can bring an effect such as labor decrement in ship. In order to design the voice instruction based ship's steering gear control system, we build of the voice instruction based learning(VIBL) system based on speech recognition and intelligent learning method at first. Next, we design an quartermaster's operation model by fuzzy inference and construct PC based remote control system. Finally, we applied the unposed control system to the miniature ship and verified its effectiveness.

현대의 선박운항에 있어서 선내 노동의 경감과 운항의 안정성 및 경제성 확보를 위하여 선박 자동화 및 원격 조종화가 이루어지고 있다. 또한, 선박조종 및 작업제어를 위하여 컴퓨터를 이용한 통합제어 시스템에 관한 연구도 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 소형선박 빛 어선과 같은 환경에서의 지능형 시스템에 관한 연구는 많이 부족한 실정이다. 인공지능기법을 이용하여 보다 인간 친화적인 시스템을 구현하고, 음성인식기술을 이용하여 원격으로 선박 조타기를 제어하여 조업자의 부담경감 및 인원절감의 효과를 가져올 수 있는 선박 조종시스템의 개발이 절실하다. 본 논문에서는 PC를 기반으로 하여 원격으로 모형 선박의 조타기를 제어하는 시스템을 구축하였다. 구체적인 연구 방법으로는, 음성인식기술과 지능형 학습 기법을 바탕으로 음성지시기반학습 시스템을 구축하고, 퍼지 조타수 조작모델을 구현하여 PC 기반 원격 제어시스템을 구현하였다. 또한, 구축된 원격 조타제어시스템을 축소된 선박모형(Miniature Ship) 시스템에 적용하여 그 효용성을 확인하였다.
