[0050] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. 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.

[0051] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a railway tunnel intelligent fire monitoring system on-site main monitoring device, such as Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0052] Data acquisition module: used to obtain the environmental parameters in the tunnel in real time; environmental parameters include but are not limited to temperature, smoke concentration, and gas composition.

[0053] Edge computing processing module: used to process environmental parameters based on deep learning algorithms, automatically identify potential fire risks and predict fire development trends;

[0054] Emergency linkage control module: used to link with the fire-fighting equipment in the tunnel when there is a fire risk, to achieve automated emergency response;

[0055] Wireless communication module: supports multiple communication protocols, such as LoRa, NB-IoT, 5G, etc., to realize data interaction with the remote monitoring center and realize remote monitoring.

[0056] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the edge computing processing module includes:

[0057] Data preprocessing unit: used to normalize environmental parameters and remove noise, and construct spatial distribution maps and time series data;

[0058] CNN model processing unit: used to extract the spatial distribution map based on the CNN model to determine whether there is a fire risk and the risk level;

[0059] Fire development prediction unit: used to process time series data based on the LSTM model and predict the fire development trend.

[0060] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the CNN model includes an input layer, multiple convolutional layers, activation functions, pooling layers, fully connected layers, and output layers in sequence;

[0061] The specific processing process of the CNN model processing unit is:

[0062] The spatial distribution map is converted into a two-dimensional matrix through the input layer; where the rows represent the positions in the tunnel length direction, the columns represent the lateral positions, and the number of channels corresponds to different sensor types.

[0063] Extract local spatial features through multiple convolutional layers, such as local high temperature areas, smoke diffusion directions, etc.

[0064] After passing through the activation function, pooling layer and fully connected layer in sequence, it is determined whether there is a fire risk and the risk level, and the result is output through the output layer.

[0065] The loss function L of the CNN modeltotal for:

[0066]

[0067] Where n is the number of categories, w i is the weight of the i-th category, y i is the value of the i-th category in the true label, is the model’s predicted probability for this category, Represents all weight parameters w j The square sum of λ is weighted and λ controls the strength of regularization.

[0068] The present invention takes into account that different types of errors may have different severities. In the railway tunnel fire monitoring system, the impact of false positives and false negatives may be different. For example, false positives may lead to serious safety accidents, while false positives may cause certain waste of resources, but the relative safety risk is relatively small. Therefore, a weighting mechanism is added to the loss function of the present invention to adjust the weights between different categories. At the same time, in order to avoid overfitting and enhance the generalization ability of the model, a regularization term is added to the loss function.

[0069] The LSTM model includes an input layer, multiple LSTM layers, and a fully connected layer, wherein the output of each LSTM layer is used as the input of the next LSTM layer, and higher-level features can be extracted layer by layer. In this embodiment, three LSTM layers can be set to enhance the ability to capture complex time patterns;

[0070] The specific processing process of the fire development prediction unit is as follows:

[0071] The input layer receives time series data, such as the temperature and smoke concentration in the past 5 minutes. The specific form is:

[0072] Time series data is sampled by time steps (such as one time step every 10 seconds) and forms a sliding window. For example, there are 30 time steps in the past 5 minutes; each time step contains multiple variables (such as temperature, smoke concentration, CO concentration, etc.), so the shape of the input tensor is (number of time steps, number of variables).

[0073] Multiple LSTM layers process time series data based on cell states and gating mechanisms to capture long-term dependencies in time series, such as the transition from slow temperature rise to deflagration in the early stages of a fire. Specifically, cell state: memorizes long-term dependencies (such as the transition from slow temperature rise to deflagration in the early stages of a fire). Gating mechanisms (input gate, forget gate, output gate): dynamically control information retention and forgetting. For example: the input gate captures the rate of temperature rise, and the forget gate ignores short-term fluctuation noise.

[0074] The output of the LSTM layer is mapped to the fire development trend through the fully connected layer. The specific output form is:

[0075] Spread speed (regression task): Use mean squared error loss (MSE) to measure the difference between the predicted value and the true value.

[0076] Spread direction (classification task): The probability distribution of different directions is calculated through the Softmax function to predict the most likely spread direction of the fire (left / right / bidirectional spread).

[0077] Impact range (time series forecast): predict the temperature / smoke distribution at the next time step.

[0078] The loss function of the LSTM model consists of the mean square error (MSE) loss of the regression task and the cross entropy loss of the classification task. The calculation formula of the mean square error (MSE) loss of the regression task is:

[0079]

[0080] Where N is the number of samples, y k is the true value of the kth sample, is the model's predicted value for the kth sample;

[0081] The cross entropy loss calculation formula for classification tasks is:

[0082]

[0083] Among them, C is the number of fire spread direction categories, including left, right, and bidirectional categories, y kc is the true label of the kth sample belonging to the cth category, is the probability that the kth sample belongs to the cth category predicted by the model.

[0084] The edge computing processing module also includes:

[0085] Fully connected layer joint training unit: used to merge the output of the CNN model and the output of the LSTM model and make a comprehensive judgment through a fully connected layer to output warning information.

[0086] The present invention combines the output results of the two models in the fully connected layer to generate more accurate and forward-looking early warning information, working together to significantly improve the performance of the entire system.

[0087] In this embodiment, a visual display and interaction module is also included: it is used to provide touch operation functions and display the environmental parameters, equipment status and warning information in the tunnel in real time.

[0088] In a tunnel environment, the changing trends of key indicators such as temperature, smoke concentration, CO concentration, as well as the working status of the equipment and any possible early warning signals can be displayed through a graphical interface on a large screen or mobile device, making it convenient for on-site staff to quickly view and handle abnormal situations.

[0089] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the wireless communication module can automatically optimize the communication path according to the current network conditions to ensure efficient data transmission even under poor network conditions.

[0090] Specifically include:

[0091] Network status monitoring unit: used to continuously collect information on network topology and link quality, such as signal strength, bit error rate, bandwidth utilization, etc.

[0092] Path evaluation and selection unit: Uses a specific algorithm (such as a distance vector algorithm or a link state algorithm) to evaluate all available paths and select the optimal path for data transmission.

[0093] Path switching mechanism unit: When a problem is detected on the existing path or a better new path exists, it quickly switches to the new path to reduce service interruption time.

[0094] The present invention adopts dynamic routing selection technology to automatically optimize the communication path according to the current network status to ensure smooth communication under extreme conditions.

The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other. For the device disclosed in the embodiment, since it corresponds to the method disclosed in the embodiment, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the method part.
