Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of coal mining, and in particular to an intelligent scheduling method for coal mining based on an artificial intelligence platform. Background Art
[0002] In the coal mining process, the effectiveness and safety of the dispatching system are crucial to the production efficiency of the mine and the safety of workers. Traditional coal mining dispatching methods mainly rely on manual experience and simple rules to manage resources and equipment. These methods have many shortcomings, such as untimely response to environmental changes, inability to dynamically adjust production plans, difficulty in effectively predicting equipment failures, and lack of flexible response mechanisms in emergency situations. With the development of science and technology, more and more sensor technologies and information technologies are being applied to coal mine production, but the existing dispatching systems still fail to fully utilize the advantages brought by these technologies.
[0003] In the existing technology, the Internet of Things technology has been applied to coal mine production to a certain extent for real-time monitoring of mine environment and equipment status. By installing gas sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, pressure sensors and other equipment in the mine, environmental parameter data can be collected in real time. These data are transmitted to the data center via wireless networks for processing and analysis, thereby helping managers understand the real-time status of the mine. However, these systems can often only provide simple real-time monitoring and alarm functions. For complex scheduling tasks and resource optimization, they still rely on manual decision-making, making it difficult to achieve automation and intelligence.
[0004] In addition, with the development of big data technology, coal mining companies have begun to try to use big data analysis technology to analyze production data in order to improve production efficiency and safety. However, due to the complexity of the coal mine production environment and the diversity of data types, traditional big data analysis technology has many challenges in data preprocessing, feature extraction and model building.
[0005] In terms of prediction models, existing technologies usually use traditional statistical methods or simple machine learning algorithms, such as linear regression, decision trees, etc., which perform poorly when dealing with nonlinear and high-dimensional data. In recent years, deep learning technology has shown powerful capabilities in various fields, especially in dealing with complex nonlinear relationships and large-scale data. However, existing coal mine dispatching systems rarely apply advanced deep learning algorithms, such as variational autoencoders (VAE) and graph neural networks (GNN), and cannot fully utilize the powerful modeling and prediction capabilities of these algorithms.
[0006] In terms of optimization models, traditional coal mining scheduling methods usually rely on heuristic algorithms and simple optimization techniques, such as genetic algorithms and simulated annealing algorithms. These methods work well in solving simple optimization problems, but they show great limitations when faced with complex multi-objective optimization problems and dynamically changing production environments. In recent years, the development of multi-agent systems and deep reinforcement learning technologies has provided new ideas for solving complex optimization problems. However, existing coal mine scheduling systems rarely introduce multi-agent systems and advanced optimization algorithms, and cannot achieve global optimization and dynamic scheduling of resources.
[0007] Therefore, how to provide an intelligent scheduling method for coal mining based on an artificial intelligence platform is an urgent problem that technicians in this field need to solve. Summary of the invention

[0154] Embodiment 1:
[0155] In order to verify the feasibility of the present invention in implementation, the present invention is applied to a large coal mine. The annual output of the coal mine is 5 million tons, the depth of the mine is 800 meters, the working environment is complex, and there are many uncertain factors in the production process, such as gas concentration, equipment failure, ventilation system failure, etc. The traditional coal mine dispatching system mainly relies on manual experience and simple rules for management, and has problems such as slow response speed, low prediction accuracy, and poor dispatching efficiency, which seriously affects production efficiency and safety.
[0156] In order to improve the production efficiency and safety of coal mines, an intelligent scheduling method for coal mining based on an artificial intelligence platform was adopted. First, a variety of sensors, including gas detection sensors, temperature sensors, humidity sensors, and pressure sensors, were installed in the mine to build a comprehensive real-time data acquisition system. These sensors are connected through the Internet of Things technology and transmit data to the central data processing platform in real time, forming a comprehensive data set.
[0157] After data collection, the system preprocessed the data set, including data cleaning, noise and outlier removal, to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the data. Then, the preprocessed data set was analyzed using big data analysis technology to extract key features and trend information and generate a detailed analysis report.
[0158] Based on the analysis results, the system uses variational autoencoders and graph neural networks to build and train prediction models for coal mining. These models can handle complex nonlinear relationships and predict changes in mine environment and equipment status. For example, the system can predict the trend of gas concentration changes in the next 24 hours, and warn of potential risks of gas exceeding the standard, so that timely measures can be taken.
[0159] In terms of optimization and scheduling, the system introduces a multi-agent system, combines a hybrid expert model and a distributed deep deterministic policy gradient, and builds and trains an optimization model. Multiple agents are responsible for different resource and equipment scheduling tasks, such as mining equipment, transportation equipment, ventilation equipment, drainage equipment, etc. Through collaboration and information sharing between agents, the system achieves global optimization and dynamic scheduling of resources. For example, when an excavator fails, the system can automatically adjust the production plan and reallocate other equipment and resources to ensure the continuity and efficiency of production.
[0160] In terms of equipment failure prediction, the system uses prediction models to monitor and analyze the operating status of equipment in real time. For example, by analyzing the vibration data and operating temperature data of a certain excavator, the system predicts that the equipment may fail in the next two days. Based on the prediction results, the system arranges maintenance in advance, avoiding unplanned downtime caused by equipment failure and reducing production losses.
[0161] ;
[0162] Analyzing the data in Table 1, it can be concluded that after applying the intelligent scheduling method for coal mining based on the artificial intelligence platform, the production efficiency and safety of coal mines have been significantly improved. First, the annual output of coal mines increased from 5 million tons in 2022 to 5.5 million tons in 2023, an increase of 10%. In terms of monthly output, it reached 450,000 tons in June 2023, while it was only 400,000 tons in the same period of 2022, with a growth rate of 12.5%. These data show that the overall production capacity of coal mines has been greatly improved by optimizing production plans and resource allocation through intelligent scheduling methods.
[0163] In terms of equipment utilization, the average utilization of excavators increased from 85% in 2022 to 98% in 2023, an increase of 15%. This significant improvement is mainly due to the precise prediction and timely maintenance arrangement of the intelligent scheduling system, which reduced the unplanned downtime of equipment. The number of equipment failures also decreased significantly, from 35 in 2022 to 10 in 2023, a decrease of 71.4%. These data prove the effectiveness of the intelligent scheduling system in equipment management and maintenance.
[0164] In terms of safety, by introducing the intelligent dispatching system, the coal mine successfully warned and avoided 12 gas exceeding the standard in 2023, while it failed to successfully warn any gas exceeding the standard in 2022.
