Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a fully automatic drug sorting and scheduling management system, based on the production end, inventory end and sales end, including: The acquisition module is connected to the production end, the inventory end and the sales end to respectively acquire the production data of the drug, the inventory data of the drug and the sales data of the drug; A warehouse transfer prediction module, connected to the acquisition module, predicts the warehouse transfer amount based on production data; A demand forecasting module, connected to the acquisition module, forecasting demand based on sales data; The inventory optimization module is connected with the acquisition module, the warehouse transfer prediction module and the demand prediction module, and sets the sorting scheduling management and optimization plan according to the warehouse transfer quantity, the demand quantity and the inventory data of the medicine.
[0025] In the specific implementation process, the acquisition module includes: The synchronization unit is used to set a timed task to periodically obtain drug production data, drug inventory data, and drug sales data from the production end, inventory end, and sales end; The preprocessing unit preprocesses the acquired data, including data cleaning and formatting.
[0026] Specifically, the synchronization unit must also ensure that the data interfaces with the production, inventory, and sales ends are standardized and support real-time or periodic data exchange.
[0027] Specifically, the preprocessing unit preprocesses the acquired data, including data cleaning and formatting such as removing invalid data and filling missing values, to ensure data quality.
[0028] Specifically, through the acquisition module, the system can automatically collect the latest data from the production, inventory and sales ends at regular intervals to ensure the timeliness and consistency of the information.
[0029] In the specific implementation process, the warehouse transfer prediction module includes: A data extraction unit extracts the production data value of the drug within a period, as well as the actual number of warehouse transfers and the actual warehouse transfer cycle; The first prediction unit uses the ARIMA model to predict the average warehouse transfer volume during the period; The correction unit corrects the average warehouse transfer volume of the period according to the seasonal influence trend parameter to obtain the production data predicted warehouse transfer volume.
[0030] Specifically, the warehouse transfer prediction module continuously adjusts the parameters (p, d, q) of the ARIMA model through historical data to achieve the best prediction effect, while considering obvious seasonal changes and incorporating seasonal components into the prediction model.
[0031] Specifically, the first prediction unit uses the ARIMA model to predict the average warehouse transfer volume during the period, including: Automatically search for the best p, d, q values using the AIC / BIC criteria, where p is the number of autoregressive terms, d is the number of differences, and q is the number of moving average terms; The ARIMA model is fitted using the selected parameters to predict the value of warehouse transfer quantity.
[0032] Specifically, the correction unit corrects the cycle average warehouse transfer quantity prediction value according to the seasonal influence trend parameter to obtain the production data predicted warehouse transfer quantity, specifically including: Introducing the seasonal impact trend parameter S(t), where the seasonal impact trend parameter S(t) is expressed as a multiplication correction coefficient, the production data forecast transfer quantity is expressed as: In the formula, is the corrected transfer quantity; It is the predicted value of warehouse transfer output by ARIMA model; Correction coefficient of seasonal influence on trend parameter; T1 is the average sales data of all years in the corresponding month in monthly units, T: the average daily sales value of the corresponding month; float(T): the total average of all monthly averages.
[0033] Specifically, the first prediction unit uses the ARIMA model to predict the average inventory transfer volume during the period, and automatically searches for the optimal parameters through the AIC / BIC criterion, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the prediction.
[0034] Specifically, the correction unit introduces the seasonal influence trend parameter S(t) to adjust the prediction results, which further improves the prediction accuracy and makes the warehouse transfer volume prediction more in line with the actual situation.
[0035] In the specific implementation process, the demand forecasting module includes: A data determination unit, which determines the factors affecting the sales data; A framework unit is used to construct a prediction model of the relationship between the influencing factors and the sales data, and the prediction model described by the ARMA algorithm is used for correction; The second prediction unit obtains sales data prediction demand based on the prediction model.
[0036] Specifically, the data determination unit determines the influencing factors of the sales data, including: Use Pearson's correlation coefficient to determine the correlation parameter with sales volume in the sales data of drugs; The correlation parameter with the greatest impact on sales volume is selected as the influencing factor.
[0037] Specifically, in addition to conventional time series and seasonal factor analysis, other factors that may affect sales should also be considered, such as market trends, competitor behavior, etc.
[0038] Specifically, determine the drug's sales data, prices, promotion records, holiday information, etc.
[0039] Use the Pearson correlation coefficient (a statistical method) to determine which factors are significantly correlated with sales. For example, you can calculate the correlation coefficient between price changes, promotions, holidays, etc. and sales.
[0040] According to the results of correlation analysis, several factors that have the greatest impact on sales volume are selected as input variables of the model.
[0041] If there is a linear relationship between the influencing factors and sales volume, a multiple linear regression model can be used.
[0042] Specifically, a prediction model for the relationship between influencing factors and sales data is constructed: ; Where, X 1 ,X 2 ,...,X n is the impact factor, is the regression coefficient; The ARMA(p, q) model is established based on the residuals of the basic forecasting model. The ARMA model can help capture the time series characteristics that are not explained by the basic model. AR part (autoregression): captures the autocorrelation in the time series. MA part (moving average): captures the random shocks in the time series.
[0043] The ARMA model is used to correct the residuals of the forecast model: ; In the formula, is the basic prediction function of the prediction model, It is the error correction term generated by the ARMA model.
[0044] Specifically, the data determination unit uses the Pearson correlation coefficient to identify key influencing factors, and the construction unit establishes a multiple linear regression model based on these factors, comprehensively considering the influence of various factors on sales data.
[0045] Specifically, the second prediction unit uses the ARMA model to correct the residuals of the basic prediction model, further improving the accuracy of demand prediction and reducing the prediction error.
[0046] Specifically, it also includes: using a part of historical data as a test set, comparing the predicted values with the actual values, and evaluating the accuracy of the model. Commonly used evaluation indicators include mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), etc. Finally, as new data accumulates, the model parameters are updated regularly to maintain the accuracy and adaptability of the model.
[0047] Specifically, based on the above technical solution, this embodiment constructs a demand prediction model that comprehensively considers various influencing factors, and further improves the prediction accuracy through the ARMA model. This can help the fully automatic drug sorting and scheduling management system more accurately predict future demand, thereby optimizing inventory management and scheduling decisions.
[0048] In the specific implementation process, the inventory optimization module sets the sorting, scheduling management and optimization plan according to the transfer volume, the demand volume and the inventory data of drugs, including: The dynamic inventory adjustment model is: ; In the formula, is the new inventory level, is the current inventory level, V is the predicted transfer volume, is the predicted demand volume; Specifically, the dynamic adjustment strategy includes: When the demand volume increases, accelerate the transfer speed and increase the transfer volume to ensure that the inventory can meet the market demand.
[0049] When the demand volume decreases, appropriately slow down the transfer speed and reduce the transfer volume to save logistics costs and storage costs.
[0050] Ensure that the inventory level is not lower than the safety inventory level to avoid losses caused by out-of-stock.
[0051] Specifically, if <Ss, it is necessary to increase the transfer volume to ensure that the inventory reaches the safety level (Ss is the safety inventory level).
[0052] Specifically, if >Ss, the transfer volume can be appropriately reduced to avoid excessive inventory (Ss is the safety stock level).
[0053] Specifically, it also includes cost-benefit analysis: Define the total cost function, including logistics cost, storage cost, and out-of-stock cost.
[0054] ; In the formula, is the unit transfer cost, is the unit storage cost, is the unit stock-out cost, is the current inventory level, is the predicted demand, V is the predicted transfer volume, is to minimize the total cost.
[0055] In the specific implementation process, priority rules: set sorting priorities based on factors such as the shelf life of the drug and the urgency of demand. Prioritize drugs with a shorter shelf life and drugs with higher demand.
[0056] Specifically, a heuristic algorithm (such as a greedy algorithm) or an optimization algorithm (such as linear programming) can be used to determine the optimal sorting order.
[0057] Specifically, a path optimization algorithm (such as Dijkstra algorithm, A* algorithm) is used to determine the shortest or most efficient sorting path to reduce sorting time and cost.
[0058] Specifically, sorting tasks can be reasonably allocated according to the capabilities of the sorting equipment and the complexity of the tasks to improve overall efficiency.
[0059] Example 2, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the present application also provides a fully automatic drug sorting and scheduling management method, including S100: Obtaining drug production data, drug inventory data, and drug sales data respectively; S200: Predict the amount of warehouse transfer based on production data; S300: forecast demand based on sales data; S400: Setting a sorting scheduling management and optimization plan according to the warehouse transfer quantity, the demand quantity and the inventory data of the medicines.
[0060] Specifically, the present application provides a fully automatic drug sorting and scheduling management system and management method, which can efficiently manage the sorting and scheduling of drugs, optimize inventory levels, reduce costs, and improve the overall performance of the supply chain.
