Since the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the transportation of cargo by ship has been seriously impacted. In order to prevent and control maritime COVID-19 transmission, it is of great significance to track and predict ship sailing behavior. As the nodes of cargo ship transportation networks, ports of call can reflect the sailing behavior of the cargo ship. Accurate hierarchical division of ports of call can help to clarify the navigation law of ships with different ship types and scales. For typical cargo ships, ships with deadweight over 10,000 tonnages account for 95.77% of total deadweight, and 592,244 berthing ships’ records were mined from automatic identification system (AIS) from January to October 2020. Considering ship type and ship scale, port hierarchy classification models are constructed to divide these ports into three kinds of specialized ports, including bulk, container, and tanker ports. For all types of specialized ports (considering ship scale), port call probability for corresponding ship type is higher than other ships, positively correlated with the ship deadweight if port scale is bigger than ship scale, and negatively correlated with the ship deadweight if port scale is smaller than ship scale. Moreover, port call probability for its corresponding ship type is positively correlated with ship deadweight, while port call probability for other ship types is negatively correlated with ship deadweight. Results indicate that a specialized port hierarchical clustering algorithm can divide the hierarchical structure of typical cargo ship calling ports, and is an effective method to track the maritime transmission path of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract The article presents an algorithm for digital image processing of astronomical objects in order to effectively determine the position of these objects. The proposed method has been optimized due to its effectiveness of removing noise and distortion caused by atmospheric turbulence and imperfections in long exposure photography of astronomical objects. This solution is ready for implementation in a system for automatic identification of stars in the recorded images. Such a system is designed for GoTo circuits at telescope’s drives, which can automatically point a telescope to astronomical objects. The method was verified by simulation in MATLAB program on real images of astronomical objects.

PERANCANGAN SISTEM PENENTUAN TINGKAT KESEGARAN IKAN CAKALANG MENGGUNAKAN METODE CURVE FITTING BERBASIS CITRA DIGITAL MATA IKAN AbstrakPada ikan terdapat banyak mengandung nutrisi yang sangat bermanfaat bagi tubuh, namun seringkali ikan diperdagangkan dalam keadaan sudah mati. Untuk mengamati kesegaran ikan cakalang dilakukan dengan pengenalan perubahan warna yang tampak pada citra digital menggunakan metode curve fitting. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah membangun sistem aplikasi pengelolahan citra untuk mendeteksi tingkat kesegaran ikan cakalang dilihat dari lamanya ikan tersebut berada di suhu ruang. Data yang gunakan adalah 10 sampel citra ikan cakalang yang diambil gambarnya setiap 1 jam selama 10 jam dan diperoleh 100 data gambar kemudian diolah dan dilakukan analisis dengan metode curve fitting. Proses pertama diawali dengan pengolahan citra dengan melakukan pemotongan (cropping) pada bagian tepi mata citra original kemudian dilanjutkan dengan penyamaan ukuran (resize) menjadi 1000 x 1000 pixel dan pergantian format citra menjadi *.png. Setelah gambar sudah diolah,  kemudian dilakukan perhitungan nilai rata-rata RGB menggunakan sistem aplikasi.  Selanjutnya, dilakukan perhitungan dengan metode curve fitting sehingga diperoleh persamaan regresi polinomial sebagai dasar pada sistem aplikasi.. Proses terakhir, dilakukan pencocokan citra uji dengan citra yang disimpan sebagai data training dan diperoleh kesimpulan apakah citra ikan cakalang tersebut telah berada selama berapa jam di suhu ruang pada selang 1 – 10 jam. Penelitian ini menunjukan dari 100 sampel ikan, 83 citra sesuai dan 17 tidak sesuai dengan  akurasi sistem sebesar    83 %.Kata kunci  : Mata Ikan Cakalang, Pengolahan Citra Digital, Metode Curve fitting. SYSTEM DESIGN OF FRESHNESS LEVEL DETERMINATION OF SKIPPER FISH USING CURVE FITTING METHOD BASED ON DIGITAL IMAGE OF FISH EYE AbstractIn fish there are many contain nutrients that are very beneficial to the body, but often fish are traded in a state of death. To observe the freshness of skipjack is done with the introduction of color changes that appear on digital image using curve fitting method. The purpose of this research is to build an image management application system to detect the freshness level of skipjack fish seen from the duration of the fish is at room temperature. The data used are 10 samples of skipjack image taken every 1 hour for 10 hours and obtained 100 image data then processed and analyzed by curve fitting method. The first process begins with image processing by cutting (cropping) at the edge of the eye of the original image and then followed by resizing to 1000 x 1000 pixels and change the image format to * .png. After the image has been processed, then calculated the average value of RGB using the application system. Furthermore, the calculation is done by curve fitting method to obtain the polynomial regression equation as the basis of the application system. The last process, the matching of the test image with the image stored as training data and obtained the conclusion whether the cakalang image has been in for how many hours at room temperature at intervals of 1 - 10 hours. This study showed that from 100 fish samples, 83 corresponding images and 17 did not correspond to the system accuracy of 83%.Keywords: Skipjack Fish, Digital Image Processing, Curve Fitting Method

This paper proposes an innovative methodology to design a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) system using FPGA (Field-programmable Gate Array). There are several main components in this system, including A/D sampling unit, FFT processing unit and control unit. A/D sampling and FFT processing units utilize the Nios processor in FPGA as controller. Control unit uses EP1C20 FPGA chip from ALTERA as FFT processing unit so as to manage the FIFO operations. This unit can handle 128 FFT operations. This system design approach is tested on Matlab. The results indicate that the calculation speed is much faster than common DSP manner.
