Researchers have developed STCAD, a scalable framework for unsupervised clustering and anomaly detection of maritime trajectories from large Automatic Identification System (AIS) datasets. The system utilizes a custom BERT-based model for encoding variable-length trajectories and the CURE hierarchical clustering algorithm for grouping them without a predetermined cluster count. An intrinsic anomaly detection method identifies irregular navigation patterns based on reconstruction loss and clustering noise assignment, successfully demonstrated on a national-scale AIS dataset.
