[0018] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the related drawings. The drawings show typical embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be realized in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this invention have the same meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. To facilitate understanding, the invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Typical embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings. However, the invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the invention more thorough and complete.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the system of the present invention mainly consists of a multi-source sensor acquisition module, a data preprocessing and fusion unit, an intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit, a remote data communication module, and a central control and display terminal.

[0021] (1) The multi-source sensor acquisition module includes a gas sensor array, a temperature and humidity sensor and an optical sensor, which are integrated into the monitoring chamber or inside the meat product packaging and are connected to the data preprocessing and fusion unit via wired or wireless means.

[0022] Gas sensor arrays typically employ high-sensitivity metal-oxide-semiconductor sensors, electrochemical sensors, or infrared gas sensing components to detect key gaseous components such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide released during meat spoilage. These gas sensors are closely arranged on the inner wall or top of the monitoring chamber or meat product packaging, enabling rapid response to minute changes in gas concentration while maintaining close proximity to the surface of the meat sample, thus improving the representativeness and sensitivity of the data collection. Temperature and humidity sensors utilize high-precision digital modules to monitor the temperature and relative humidity of the meat storage environment in real time. Their sensing elements are generally fixed to the inner side wall of the chamber or packaging, 2-5 cm away from the meat product, to avoid direct contact contamination while ensuring the accuracy and speed of the measurement data.

[0023] The optical sensor section integrates visible light and near-infrared spectroscopy modules to characterize the optical features of surface color changes and harmful microbial metabolites in meat products. These sensors are typically mounted planarly on the top transparent area of ​​the packaging or at the observation window of the monitoring chamber, achieving non-destructive monitoring through timed scanning or reflection detection. All the aforementioned sensor units are connected together via a miniature interface board or flexible circuitry. Signals are synchronously transmitted to the data preprocessing and fusion unit via wired (I2C, SPI) or wireless (BLE, ZigBee, LoRa) methods, enabling real-time and efficient acquisition of multi-source information. The entire module is designed to balance sealing with the openness of the sensing window, preventing external interference while facilitating sensor maintenance and replacement, making it suitable for integrated deployment inside and outside packaging for different types of meat products.

[0024] (2) The data preprocessing and fusion unit synchronously collects, denoises and converts the original signals from various sensors, and the processed multi-dimensional data is connected to the intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit through a high-speed bus.

[0025] The unit is composed of an embedded processor and its supporting analog / digital signal processing circuit. All gas, temperature and humidity, optical sensors are synchronously accessed through multi-channel ADC or multi-channel digital interface to realize millisecond-level data synchronous acquisition. In view of the noise and interference that may exist in the sensor signals, the unit integrates a wavelet transform denoising algorithm to ensure the stability and reliability of the output signals. In order to support subsequent intelligent monitoring processing, the processor further converts the channel data into features, including normalization, standardization, feature extraction (such as gas composition peak, temperature and humidity change slope, spectral feature parameters), and converts high-dimensional original data into representative multi-dimensional feature vectors.

[0026] In terms of structural layout, the data preprocessing and fusion unit is generally located in the external control box of the monitoring cabin or the internal large integrated acquisition module of the meat product package, which facilitates physical connection with the sensor port and enables fast and stable transmission of processed data to the intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit through a high-speed bus (RS485, CAN, SPI, Ethernet). The unit also has an expansion interface to meet the needs of sensor type upgrade or quantity expansion in the future, and the overall design focuses on anti-interference, low power consumption and compact structure to adapt to the diversified installation and deployment in the meat product circulation packaging and cold chain transportation environment.

[0027] (3) The intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit integrates feature extraction, change point detection and preservation index prediction algorithms to realize dynamic discrimination and evaluation of the preservation state of meat products. The output results are connected to the central control and display terminal through a data interface, making it convenient for users to view the preservation state and warning information in real time.

[0028] As shown in Figure 2 , specifically, the system first automatically learns the feature expression weights of each gas and environmental parameter based on different processing techniques and storage conditions of meat products, dynamically adjusts the influence of different sensing signals in state discrimination, and forms a self-adaptive feature expression over time.

[0029] The intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit deeply integrates multi-sensor data intelligent processing and advanced algorithm architecture. First, in view of the differences in data distribution and evolution process of different processing techniques and storage conditions of meat products, the system uses an adaptive feature weight learning mechanism to build a multi-dimensional feature expression model. In the specific implementation process, the original feature matrix is assumed to be , where N is the number of samples, D is the number of feature channels (multi-class gas concentration, temperature and humidity, optical index), and the system performs weighted linear transformation Get fusion features where the weight matrix is dynamically adjusted by a self-learning mechanism to ensure that the contribution of key sensing signals under various processes and storage conditions is optimal. The weight matrix optimization uses the objective function where is the state label, is a regularization coefficient used to suppress irrelevant feature dimensions, and the model is iterated in real time with a time sliding window to form a time-adaptive feature expression.

[0030] Second, a nonlinear state change point detection algorithm based on multi-sensor fusion is introduced, which can identify the small but critical gas composition inflection point in the process of meat products from fresh to deterioration, and realize the forward-looking analysis of state mutation.

[0031] The system uses a nonlinear mutation point detection algorithm based on multi-sensor fusion. Specifically, for the feature sequence ( is the time step), a mutation measure based on reconstruction error is introduced, and the change point probability at a certain time is defined as where is the expected feature output by the autoregressive or deep prediction model using the data of the previous time, is a scaling parameter, is a sigmoid function. If exceeds the threshold value, it is determined that this time is the state inflection point of fresh-deterioration, and the forward warning of meat quality sudden change is realized. This algorithm couples with the asynchronous changes of gas main components, environmental temperature and humidity, and optical characteristics, improving the capture sensitivity of weak quality mutation signals.

[0032] In addition, the system develops a self-correcting freshness index prediction model, which uses a multi-factor time trace network driven by historical big data to dynamically correct the prediction bias caused by external factors such as batch differences and climate change, making the freshness period evaluation more personalized and scenario-adaptive.

[0033] The system designs a self-correcting multi-factor spatio-temporal regression network, which fully utilizes the historical big database and combines real-time input for dynamic modeling. Let the freshness index be its prediction model is where represents the multi-source fusion feature sequence at the past time, is the current external environment vector (such as climate, transportation temperature), is the batch identifier and process parameter, is the model parameter. The model uses LSTM with external factor correction structure, and the loss function is wherein to correct the weights, For suppressing batch-to-batch prediction bias. The system realizes continuous self-correction of the model with batches, seasons and transportation routes through online fine-tuning and sliding window historical error backtracking mechanism, making the preservation prediction results more personalized and scene-adaptive.

[0034] (4) The intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit also uploads the monitoring and evaluation results to the cloud storage analysis platform through the remote data communication module. The cloud storage analysis platform not only archives and analyzes historical and real-time data for a long time, but also feeds back big data analysis results or intelligent decision suggestions to the central control and display terminal, forming a feedback loop.

[0035] After completing local feature recognition, change point detection and preservation index prediction, the intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit uploads key monitoring and evaluation results and multi-dimensional time series data before or after preprocessing to the cloud storage analysis platform in real time or at regular intervals through the integrated remote data communication module.

[0036] The data communication module can select 4G / 5G cellular communication, Ethernet, WiFi or LoRa according to the actual scene, and is equipped with a secure encryption protocol (such as SSL / TLS) to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the data during transmission. The cloud storage analysis platform is built on a distributed database and big data processing architecture. The platform automatically labels and archives uploaded data according to batches, processes and circulation links, and combines multi-dimensional dynamic feature modeling, time series clustering and quality evolution trend analysis to realize long-term data retention and multi-angle traceability review.

[0037] During data analysis, the cloud platform can also use aggregation statistics, anomaly detection, group mechanism modeling and AI decision algorithms to globally optimize the preservation risk of different batches, seasons or transportation routes, and generate personalized intelligent decision suggestions or dynamic early warning strategies based on model output. All cloud-based analysis results and decision suggestions are fed back to the central control and display terminal through a secure data channel to realize user-side visualization and real-time tracking of historical records, quality trends, risk distribution and intelligent decisions, and to build a data analysis and business loop. To ensure the maintainability and environmental adaptability of the system, the remote data communication module and antenna are usually integrated in the external communication interface area of the terminal main control box or the monitoring unit shell of the cold chain logistics node, with protection level and anti-interference design, while the cloud platform is deployed in a remote data center or enterprise's own private cloud, ensuring high availability and large-scale concurrent processing capability of data.

[0038] (5) The central control and display terminal can centrally manage the overall operation state of the system, and can remotely configure the parameters of each acquisition node or processor when necessary, so as to realize intelligent monitoring, dynamic evaluation and full-process information interaction of the meat preservation state.

[0039] The central control and display terminal as the core management and interaction hub of the system usually adopts an industrial integrated industrial control host or a touch panel, and is built-in with a high-reliability operating system and a customized management software to realize centralized management and control and information visualization of the whole intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation system. The terminal realizes stable interconnection through wired or wireless high-speed data interfaces with various data acquisition nodes, intelligent processors and cloud platforms, and collects real-time monitoring data, preservation indexes, state change point information and cloud big data analysis results of the whole process. At the management software level, the terminal integrates multi-thread communication and distributed task management mechanism, supports remote configuration and dynamic upgrade of the parameters of each acquisition node and processor in the system. Specifically, the administrator can flexibly adjust the key parameters such as acquisition frequency, detection sensitivity and data reporting strategy of each sensing channel through the graphical user interface, or one-key start deep inspection and temporary early warning measures for special batches and abnormal states. The terminal also has a strategy rule engine and an intelligent alarm component, which can automatically identify abnormal trends, communication failures or hardware abnormalities in system operation, and give instant warning through sound and light or push notification. At the same time, all operation records and data flow are automatically archived for subsequent traceability and system maintenance. In order to ensure the durability and operation convenience of the terminal device, it is usually installed in the central refrigeration warehouse dispatch control room, logistics sorting center or cold chain transportation vehicle cab, etc. core management area, equipped with dustproof and waterproof shell and high-brightness display screen, to ensure long-term stable operation in complex environment, and fully meet the information interaction and intelligent management needs of each link of the whole process of meat preservation.

[0040] The whole system realizes highly automated data acquisition, remote cloud analysis and visualization warning, provides an intelligent and dynamic full-process solution for meat supply chain preservation management, and effectively solves the problems of meat preservation state monitoring lag, large evaluation error and poor adaptability in the prior art.

[0041] Embodiment: In order to verify the effectiveness and reliability of the meat preservation state monitoring and dynamic evaluation system of the application, the actual deployment and operation of the system in the specific embodiment is given by taking the refrigerated storage of segmented pork of a cold chain storage enterprise as an application scene.

[0042] I. Experimental environment and system deployment A batch of split pork with batch number A20240601 in the enterprise cold storage is selected, with a net weight of 500 kg, a single weight of 1.5-2.0 kg, vacuum packaging, and a storage temperature of 2°C and a relative humidity of 85%. The multi-source sensing acquisition module of the application is arranged in the cold storage and the inner wall of the meat product package, a total of 10 monitoring nodes, each node integrating a gas sensing array (ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide), a digital temperature and humidity sensor, and a visible-near infrared optical sensor. All nodes are interconnected with the external data preprocessing and fusion unit through the LoRa wireless network, and are uniformly connected to the central control and display terminal, and the system parameters are remotely configured. The acquisition cycle is set to once every 30 minutes, and the monitoring cycle covers 15 days.

[0043] II. Key monitoring data and process During the entire monitoring period, key data such as gas, temperature and humidity, and optical reflectance spectrum were collected and analyzed. Some of the raw data are shown in Table 1 (monitoring node 3 is taken as an example, and key moment data are selected): III. Data processing and dynamic evaluation process Each monitoring node synchronously collects the above-mentioned multiple groups of data every 30 minutes. The data are first denoised and normalized by the preprocessing and fusion unit, and the time series features (such as gas concentration gradient change, spectral feature downward trend, and environmental parameter fluctuation) are extracted based on the feature conversion model. The intelligent monitoring and dynamic evaluation unit uses a multi-source fusion recurrent neural network to dynamically analyze the feature data, generates a current freshness index prediction value (range 0-1, 1 represents optimal freshness, below 0.7 is considered as a mild spoilage warning, and below 0.5 is considered as serious spoilage), and outputs a freshness state evaluation conclusion.

[0044] As can be seen from Table 1, in the early stage of the experiment (June 1-June 6), the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide concentrations are extremely low, the carbon dioxide increase is slow, the spectral peak remains at a high level, the freshness index prediction value is higher than 0.9, and the meat product state is “fresh”. Starting from June 9, the gas sensing results show an accelerated increase, especially the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide increase significantly, the spectral peak rapidly decreases, the freshness index prediction value drops to 0.87, and the system enters the “caution” stage; by June 12, the key gas concentrations break the warning line (such as ammonia > 3.5 ppm), combined with the decrease in the spectral peak value, the dynamic evaluation algorithm comprehensively determines that it is “mildly spoiled”, and automatically pushes the critical warning to the central control terminal and the warehouse management personnel’s mobile phone. By June 15, the ammonia and hydrogen sulfide concentrations reach 7.8 ppm and 0.93 ppm respectively, the spectral peak value drops to 0.37, the freshness index drops to 0.43, and the system determines that it is “severely spoiled”, and forcibly triggers an alarm and recommends that the batch be removed.

[0045] IV. Cloud analysis and abnormal management closed loop All collected data and dynamic evaluation results are uploaded to the cloud through the LoRa+4G interface. The cloud analysis platform archives, labels, and manages the full data, clusters time series features, and performs trend prediction analysis, identifies the abnormal inflection point of gas concentration rise (June 11) within the storage period of this batch, and automatically compares with the historical data of nearly 500 batches of the enterprise, outputs the risk trend report and management suggestions. The platform also automatically inspects the operation of each node device, detects the abnormal signal fluctuation of node 1 on June 14, and automatically dispatches maintenance work orders to ensure device reliability.

[0046] V. Centralized management and display interaction The central control and display terminal refreshes the values and evaluation conclusions of each node in real time all day long. Management personnel can view the batch quality trend, early warning records, and device operation status at any time through the visual large screen and mobile terminal APP. The system supports hierarchical permission management and automatic archiving of the entire operation process, facilitating post-tracing and quality responsibility identification. According to the system's suggestions, management personnel began to check the actual sensory and microbial indicators of meat products on June 12. The detection found that the total number of microorganisms began to exceed the standard, which was highly consistent with the system's dynamic early warning, further verifying the accuracy and forward-looking nature of the monitoring and evaluation model of the invention.

[0047] This embodiment fully verifies that the system of the invention can realize high-frequency and stable collection and synchronous fusion of multi-source data throughout the whole process of cold-chain meat product storage, automatically realize dynamic discrimination, risk trend prediction, and multi-level intelligent early warning of the whole process from freshness to deterioration, greatly improving the identification and response efficiency of safety risks. Through cloud big data analysis, the batch management traceability loop is realized, and the system exhibits significant advantages of intelligence, automation, and high adaptability in practical application, providing technical support and innovative path for fine management of cold-chain meat products and food safety guarantee.

By utilizing reconstruction error measurement and combining autoregressive or deep prediction models, the probability of a change point at each time step is calculated. When the probability exceeds a preset threshold, it is automatically determined as a moment of quality mutation, thereby improving the ability to anticipate subtle state changes. The freshness index prediction model uses a multi-factor spatiotemporal regression network driven by historical big data, combined with multi-factor inputs such as real-time collected fusion features, environmental parameters, batch and process information, and adopts a recurrent neural network with an external factor correction structure to dynamically correct prediction biases caused by batch, season and climate change.
