Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of logistics information technology, and specifically to an integrated logistics management system for cargo transportation. Background Technology

[0002] With the deepening of globalization and the rapid rise of new retail models, modern logistics and transportation are facing unprecedented challenges. Current logistics management systems mainly suffer from the following problems:

[0003] Insufficient system integration. Functional modules such as order management, warehouse scheduling, and transportation tracking operate independently, resulting in severe data silos; seamless integration between systems of different participants is difficult; in multimodal transport scenarios, information exchange between various modes of transport is hindered; and customs clearance, commodity inspection, and other aspects of cross-border logistics are poorly connected with the transportation system.

[0004] Dynamic monitoring capabilities are limited. Relying solely on GPS positioning and RFID identification cannot achieve comprehensive status monitoring; specialized monitoring methods for special goods are insufficient; the real-time nature and accuracy of monitoring data are difficult to guarantee; and monitoring blind spots are widespread.

[0005] Insufficient decision support. Historical data analysis remains superficial, with insufficient in-depth value extraction; there is a lack of intelligent decision-making capabilities under multiple scenarios and constraints; and decision recommendations lack interpretability.

[0006] The efficiency of collaborative dispatching is low. Fleet management lacks overall planning and is mainly based on single-vehicle dispatching; cross-regional collaboration capabilities are weak, and resources are difficult to share between regions; multi-vehicle collaborative operations lack a unified command and dispatch mechanism.

[0007] Safety traceability is challenging. There is a lack of mechanisms for full-process tracking and verification of cargo integrity; insufficient monitoring of the physical condition during transportation; and difficulty in timely detection of safety hazards caused by human factors.

[0008] In conclusion, the integration, intelligence, and collaboration of traditional logistics management systems are insufficient to meet the demands of the complex modern logistics environment, and they urgently need to be optimized and improved through innovative technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0009] This invention provides an integrated logistics management system for cargo transportation. Through the systematic integration of multiple functional modules, it achieves intelligent management of the entire cargo transportation process, addressing technical challenges in existing logistics systems related to data integration, dynamic monitoring, decision support, collaborative scheduling, and safety traceability. The system constructs a complete technical framework from cargo transportation perception and analysis to execution, with each module working collaboratively to support integrated management of the entire cargo transportation process. Specifically, it includes the following technical modules:

[0010] 1. Multimodal cooperative sensing module:

[0011] As the data foundation layer of the system, a network of temperature, humidity, vibration, and tilt sensors installed in vehicles, warehouses, and loading / unloading areas enables status monitoring across the entire logistics scenario. A deep belief network with a specific network structure is used, in which each type of sensor data is configured with an independent feature extraction layer to ensure the feature representation of different types of data. Edge computing nodes process data locally through a pre-set federated learning model and transmit feature information to the central node, reducing data transmission load. This module provides real-time, multi-dimensional perception data support for the semantic reasoning module and the scene adaptation decision module.

[0012] 2. Semantic Reasoning Module:

[0013] As the knowledge processing layer of the system, the knowledge graph constructed based on the graph attention network will uniformly model the multi-dimensional state data obtained from the multimodal collaborative perception module, along with order information, warehouse status, transportation routes, vehicle information, and cargo attributes. Attention scores will be assigned to different types of information through a node weight matrix to highlight key information. The set knowledge graph completion algorithm will be used to infer node relationships and fill in information gaps. An ontology mapping method will be used to realize semantic connections between road, rail, and air transportation. This module provides structured knowledge support for the scenario adaptation decision module and provides the processed semantic information to the logistics trust chain module for credibility assessment.

[0014] 3. Scene Adaptation Decision Module:

[0015] As the intelligent decision-making layer of the system, it includes a Pulse Coupled Neural Network (PCNN) layer and a swarm intelligence collaboration layer. The PCNN layer constructs the logistics network as a neuron matrix structure, with each neuron corresponding to a logistics node. The connection weights between neurons are determined by a normalized weighted calculation of four indicators: path distance, travel time, transportation cost, and path reliability. The maximum processing capacity of each node is the core basis for the activation threshold, and is dynamically adjusted in conjunction with processing time and caching capacity. The swarm intelligence collaboration layer sets up multiple decision-making agents, each responsible for a region within a specified radius. Its status information includes road condition index, vehicle availability, warehouse capacity, and the proportion of urgent orders. Agents in adjacent regions exchange status information within a fixed period through a preset hierarchical communication protocol. The initial routing scheme output by the PCNN layer serves as a soft constraint for the agent's decision-making. The agent optimizes the route based on the regional status information it possesses, and the optimization result dynamically updates the connection weights of the PCNN layer according to a preset learning rate parameter. Finally, the module transmits the decision results to the intelligent execution module and provides structured decision data support for the logistics trust chain module.

[0016] 4. Intelligent Execution Module:

[0017] As the task execution layer of the system, a hierarchical task management mechanism is adopted to decompose the transportation tasks output by the scenario adaptation decision module into three sub-tasks: trunk transportation, branch line scheduling, and last-mile delivery. Based on the constraint model of time window, route traffic status, and node processing capacity, the rationality and feasibility of the execution plan are ensured. Through the anomaly detection results of the multimodal collaborative perception module and the credit assessment of the logistics trust chain module, the task execution plan is dynamically adjusted. At the same time, the real-time status of task execution is fed back to the multimodal collaborative perception module to form a closed-loop control, thereby enhancing the adaptability and stability of the system.

[0018] 5. Logistics Trust Chain Module:

[0019] As the system's trust assurance layer, a logistics trust system is constructed through a layered consensus mechanism, a credit scoring model, and a trust propagation and early warning mechanism. Consensus weights are allocated based on the roles and attributes of carriers, warehousing providers, and consignees / consignees, combined with accumulated credit scores and transaction data. The credit scoring model evaluates on-time delivery rate, transaction volume ratio, positive review rate, and complaint rate, inheriting the initial trust assessment results from the intelligent execution module. The trust propagation model calculates the trust relationships between nodes, implementing a tiered early warning mechanism. Data collection strategies, route planning decisions, resource allocation methods, and transaction consensus requirements are adjusted based on trust levels and risk assessment results. Simultaneously, the module continuously receives real-time data from the multimodal collaborative perception module and task feedback from the intelligent execution module, dynamically updating the trust assessment results to form an efficient closed-loop trust management mechanism.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0021] 1. Comprehensive Perception and Monitoring: Employing multimodal sensor networks and federated learning models improves the coverage and data processing efficiency of logistics scenario status monitoring, and reduces system monitoring blind spots.

[0022] 2. Semantic information fusion: Knowledge graphs are constructed through graph attention networks to achieve interconnection and interoperability of multimodal transport information, reduce information silos, and improve information utilization efficiency.

[0023] 3. Intelligent decision optimization: Combining PCNN with swarm intelligence collaborative mechanism, route planning is completed under multiple constraints, improving the accuracy and timeliness of system decision-making.

[0024] 4. Task execution control: Based on hierarchical task management and a multi-dimensional constraint model, the system enables coordinated scheduling of trunk and branch lines, ensuring the feasibility and efficiency of the execution plan.

[0025] 5. End-to-end trust verification: By using a layered consensus mechanism and smart contracts, combined with dynamic credit scoring, a trustworthiness assessment system for the logistics process is established to enhance security traceability capabilities. Attached Figure Description

[0310] Based on the aforementioned risk warning mechanism, the system adopts corresponding coordinated control measures for different warning levels:

[0311] a) High-risk status

[0312] Transportation control: Restrict carriers from adding new waybills; increase the frequency of GPS positioning and sensor data collection to once every 5 minutes; require vehicles to travel on the main route planned by PCNN and prohibit alternative routes; enforce cargo status checks at each handover point.

[0313] Warehouse management: Increase the processing capacity threshold of warehouse nodes to 120%; increase the inventory counting frequency to once a day; require warehouses to provide additional video surveillance records.

[0323] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the integrated logistics management system for cargo transportation of the present invention operates in the following five stages:

[0324] Phase 1: Multimodal Data Perception and Edge Processing

[0325] The system utilizes a multimodal collaborative sensing module deployed in a sensor network across transport vehicles, warehousing facilities, and loading / unloading areas to collect logistics status data such as temperature, humidity, vibration, and tilt angle. The sensor network employs a layered deployment approach: Core Monitoring Layer: High-precision sensors are deployed at key nodes such as loading / unloading points and warehouse entrances to ensure accurate status monitoring in critical areas. Collaborative Sensing Layer: Low-cost sensors are deployed in regular areas to extend the monitoring coverage.

[0326] Data is transmitted to edge computing nodes, where deep belief networks (DBNs) are used to extract hierarchical features from the collected multimodal data and generate hidden layer feature representations.

[0327] Federated learning model processing: Edge computing nodes train models based on local datasets and upload the model parameters to the central node. The central node integrates the parameters from each edge node using a weighted aggregation algorithm to generate compressed global feature data, providing real-time, multi-dimensional data support for the semantic reasoning module.

[0328] Phase Two: Semantic Reasoning and Knowledge Graph Construction

[0329] The system receives multi-dimensional state data from the multimodal collaborative perception module through the semantic reasoning module, and constructs a knowledge graph by combining order information, warehouse status, transportation routes, vehicle information, and cargo attributes. Node set Including order nodes Warehouse nodes Path nodes Vehicle nodes and cargo nodes Edge set and relation set Define the semantic relationships and association types between nodes respectively.

[0330] Graph Attention Network (GAT) is used to dynamically assign semantic weights between nodes and aggregate key information.

[0331] To address the information gaps in knowledge graphs, the TransE model is used for relation prediction and completion, and reliable completion results are selected through confidence assessment.

[0332] To support multimodal transport scenarios, the semantic reasoning module utilizes ontology mapping technology to construct a unified semantic model among road, rail, and air transport, providing structured knowledge support for the scenario adaptation decision-making module.

[0333] Phase 3: PCNN and Swarm Intelligence Routing Decision

[0334] Pulse Coupled Neural Network (PCNN) Modeling: The scene adaptation decision module maps the logistics network into a PCNN neuron matrix structure and dynamically calculates the activation threshold of neurons according to the following rules: node processing capacity and path characteristics (distance, travel time, transportation cost and reliability) are used as key decision indicators; the connection weights between neurons are generated by normalized weighted calculation based on the above indicators.

[0335] Swarm intelligence collaborative optimization mechanism: The scene adaptation decision module sets up multiple decision agents, each maintaining a state vector of its responsible area, including road condition index, vehicle availability, warehouse capacity, and emergency order ratio; neighboring agents periodically exchange state data through a hierarchical communication protocol; the initial routing scheme output by PCNN serves as a soft constraint for agent decision-making, and agents optimize routes based on the state information of their own area, with the optimization results dynamically updating the connection weights of PCNN.

[0336] The optimized routing scheme is then passed to the intelligent execution module, while simultaneously providing structured decision data to the logistics trust chain module.

[0337] Phase Four: Hierarchical Logistics Task Execution

[0338] Task decomposition: The intelligent execution module receives the routing scheme output by the scenario adaptation decision module and decomposes it into three levels of tasks: trunk transportation, branch line scheduling, and last-mile delivery. Each task must meet the constraints of time window, path access status, and node processing capacity.

[0339] Dynamic adjustment mechanism: When the perception module detects abnormal events (such as route interruption, vehicle failure, etc.), the intelligent execution module dynamically adjusts the task execution plan based on the abnormality detection results and the credit assessment provided by the logistics trust chain module to ensure the smooth completion of the task.

[0340] Real-time feedback mechanism: The task execution status is transmitted to the multimodal collaborative perception module in real time through the feedback module, forming a closed-loop control to support subsequent task optimization.

[0341] Phase 5: Building a Trust Chain and Preventing Risks in Logistics

[0342] Layered consensus mechanism: The logistics trust chain module is based on the role attributes of carriers, warehouses and consignees. It calculates cumulative credit scores by combining role-specific indicators such as on-time delivery rate, storage accuracy rate and settlement timeliness. Consensus weights are allocated through factors such as transaction frequency and transaction amount to realize trust assessment of all parties in the logistics network.

[0343] Credit Scoring and Propagation: The module evaluates credit scores based on indicators such as on-time delivery rate, transaction volume ratio, positive review rate, and complaint rate using a scoring model, and updates credit scores using a time decay mechanism; it also uses a trust propagation model to calculate trust relationships between nodes, thereby building a trust network.

[0344] Risk warning and collaborative control: Based on trust level and risk assessment results, a tiered early warning system is implemented, and differentiated control measures are adopted for different risk levels, including adjusting data collection frequency, restricting path selection, changing resource allocation methods, and adjusting consensus mechanism parameters, and collaborating with other modules to complete risk prevention and control.

[0345] Through the collaborative work of the above five stages, the integrated logistics management system for cargo transportation of this invention achieves closed-loop operation from data collection and processing, knowledge reasoning, intelligent decision-making to task execution and risk prevention. The coordinated cooperation between the various modules of the system ensures the controllability of the logistics process.

[0346] In summary, this invention provides an integrated logistics management system for cargo transportation. It constructs a complete technical framework from logistics scene perception and knowledge processing to task execution through a multimodal collaborative perception module's hierarchical perception network and edge computing processing, a semantic reasoning module's knowledge graph construction and ontology mapping, a scene adaptation decision module's PCNN and swarm intelligence collaboration, a hierarchical task management module for intelligent execution, and a hierarchical consensus mechanism for the logistics trust chain module. Through data interaction and feedback mechanisms between modules, the system achieves intelligent management of the entire logistics process, effectively solving the technical problems of existing logistics systems in areas such as data integration, dynamic monitoring, decision support, collaborative scheduling, and security traceability.
