In recent years, the size of container ships has become larger, thus requiring a more evident assurance of the hull structural safety. In order to evaluate the structural safety in operation, it is necessary to grasp the encountered sea state. The aim of this study is to estimate the encountered sea state using machine learning from measurement data of ocean-going 14,000TEU container ships. In this paper, as a first step in the study, considerable amounts of virtual sea state data and corresponding ship motion and structural response data are prepared. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is developed using these data to estimate the directional wave spectrum of encountered sea based on the hull responses. The input parameters of the formulated CNN include the spectral values of ship motion and structural response spectrum. The output of the CNN includes the sea state parameters of the Ochi-Hubble spectrum, specifically, significant wave height, modal wave frequency, mean wave direction, kurtosis, and concentration of wave energy directional distribution. It is found from the performance examination that the developed CNN is capable of accurately estimating the sea state parameters, although the level of accuracy decreases when the hull response is low. However, the decrease in accuracy when the hull response is low has a weak influence on the evaluation of the structural response to the estimated sea state.
