Research on seafarer psysical and

psychological evaluation model and

physical activity intervention measures
Important vocabulary

P&I club protection and indemnity club. An association that provides maritime
insurance.
Artificial neural network- system of interconnected neurons that can excange
information between each other. They have assigned values that can be tuned
based on experience making them adaptive and capable of learning
Error Back propagation- a method of tuning/teaching nueral networks. Input is given
and if the output is not correct the error propagates back and gives the basis for
input change that will give a correct result
Static factors- unchangable factors that influence people on ships. Such as engine
vibrations, weather etc
Dynamic factors- factor that can be influenced and changed. They are tied to
seafarers and their experience on the ship. Such as sleep, appetite, depression, etc.
Causes for the research

Danger of shipping
High percentage of human error in
shipping accidents
Human error is the leading cause of
accidents, more than 50%
High vocational stress and its
influence on effincency of seafarers
Main goals of the research

To create a seafarer self evaluation

computer program
To teach the program to give meaningful
results based on seafarer input
To allow seafarers to recognize
psychological problems before they cause
problems
To create workout routines using the
evaluation program
Lower the influence of human error on ship
safety
Lower work related injury
The range of
the research
-the diagram shows the
limits of the research
-the research focuses
solely on the dynamic
factors experienced by
seamen
The structure of
an artifical
neural network
The network is comprised
of several neurons and
their connection
Information given through
the input layer is processed
by the hidden layer and the
result is given in the output
layer
Input: the dynamic factors
and severity
Hidden: creates result
based on input
Output: gives the result

The climate
Example
environment rapidly
Correct sentence
Climate environment rapidly changed, the human body is
difficult to adapt. Which easily lead to disseases of the
changes and the
respiratory system and nervous system.
human body has
difficulty adapting.
Which easily leads to
