Fusion: Practice and Applications FPA 2692-4048 2770-0070 10.54216/FPA https://www.americaspg.com/journals/show/2268 2018 2018 Docente de la carrera de Software de la Universidad Regional Autónoma de los Andes (UNIANDES), Ecuador Luis Luis Docente de la carrera de Software de la Universidad Regional Autónoma de los Andes (UNIANDES), Ecuador Bolívar Villalta Jadan This study addresses the burgeoning challenges in autonomous Maritime navigation by employing information fusion methodologies to assess and manage multifaceted risks. The proliferation of autonomous maritime systems has led to a complex interplay among maritime-related, shore-based remote control, environmental, and emergency management factors, necessitating a comprehensive risk evaluation framework. Leveraging a multi-criteria decision-making approach and employing the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), this research presents a methodical analysis of the coupling coordination degree among these risk variables. Through a meticulous examination of historical accident data and information fusion techniques, our study reveals dynamic trends in the comprehensive risk evaluation index, showcasing the evolving nature of risks inherent in autonomous Maritime navigation. The predictive insights gleaned from these analyses forecast an initial increase followed by a peak in accidents, underscoring the urgency for proactive risk mitigation strategies. This study's conclusions emphasize the pivotal role of information fusion methodologies in comprehensively assessing, understanding, and managing risks within autonomous Maritime navigation. 2024 2024 158 168 10.54216/FPA.140114 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/3/show/2268
