Technical Field

[0002] In recent years, the development of technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing has made it possible for automobiles to become intelligent. As an important branch of artificial intelligence, machine learning has performed well in pattern recognition, predictive analysis, and other aspects, and has provided technical support for the intelligent adjustment of vehicle air outlets. Traditional vehicle air-conditioning systems usually rely on the driver to manually adjust the temperature, wind speed, and direction of the air outlets. This method has certain limitations and cannot be automatically adjusted according to the in-car environment and passenger needs, resulting in unsatisfactory comfort and energy efficiency. Therefore, a method for intelligent adjustment of vehicle air outlets has emerged. By intelligently adjusting the air outlets, the energy consumption of the air-conditioning system can be reduced while ensuring comfort, and the battery life can be extended, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the entire vehicle.
[0003] However, although the existing intelligent adjustment of vehicle air outlets has many advantages, the existing adjustment methods mainly rely on a single sensor and preset rules, lack multi-dimensional perception and prediction of frosting, and cannot predict frosting dynamics in real time. Unified defrosting is usually adopted in the entire area, which has high energy consumption and affects passenger comfort. It is impossible to accurately control defrosting and optimize energy efficiency, and it is impossible to achieve coordinated adjustment between perception, prediction, decision-making and control of defrosting, and thus it is impossible to take into account energy efficiency, comfort and safety at the same time.

[0039] S2: Analyze the surface state image of the current windshield to obtain a frosting recognition coefficient for identifying the frosted area on the glass surface.
[0040] In this embodiment, the S2 uses a convolutional neural network to analyze the pre-processed windshield surface state image, monitor the frost and fog state of the glass surface in real time, and identify the frosted area;
[0041] The local features of the image are extracted through the convolution layer, and the extracted feature map is converted into a one-dimensional feature vector. The softmax activation function is then used to output the frosting probability of each pixel. The frosting probability of each pixel output is the frosting recognition coefficient. The frosting recognition coefficient is compared with the preset recognition threshold to determine all the pixels where frost appears. The pixels whose frosting recognition coefficient is greater than the preset recognition threshold are identified as frosted pixels and marked to form a frosted area.
[0042] When a frosted area on the windshield is detected, an analysis of the defrost control for the windshield is performed.
[0043] It should be specifically noted that the size of the windshield surface state image is adjusted to meet the requirements of the CNN input layer, and the pixel values of the image are normalized, and the processed image is input into the trained convolutional neural network model to identify the windshield surface state;
[0044] The specific analysis method of using the convolutional neural network model to identify the surface state of the windshield is as follows:

[0046] Step S212: converting the feature map output by the convolutional layer into a one-dimensional feature vector through a fully connected layer;
[0047] Step S213: Use the softmax activation function to output the frost probability of each pixel. The specific function calculation formula is: Among them, P(y k ) represents the frost probability of pixel k, y k Expressed as a normalized predicted value, the frost probability P(y k ) is the frost recognition coefficient;
[0048] Step S214: Set the frost identification coefficient P(y k ) and the preset recognition threshold θ 1 Comparison is used to filter out all frosted pixels. When P(y k )>θ 1 When , the pixel k is identified as frosted, and all the pixels identified as frosted are screened out at the same time, and all the pixels identified as frosted are combined into a frosted area.
[0049] S3: By combining and analyzing the current in-vehicle environment data and the occupant's physiological data with historical data, a frosting prediction value is obtained to predict the frosting state of the windshield in the future.
[0050] In this embodiment, S3 collects historical in-vehicle environment data and occupant physiological data over a period of time, and combines them with the currently collected in-vehicle environment data and occupant physiological data in chronological order to form a time series data set, and uses the LSTM time series prediction model to predict and analyze the future frosting of the windshield to obtain a frosting prediction value, and compares the frosting prediction value with a preset frosting threshold to predict the potential frosting trend of the vehicle windshield. When the frosting prediction value is greater than the preset frosting threshold, it is considered that the windshield will be frosted in the future.
[0051] It should be noted that the specific analysis method for predicting windshield frosting through the LSTM time series prediction model is as follows:
[0052] Step S311: constructing an LSTM model, including defining the architecture of the LSTM model, selecting an appropriate loss function and optimizer to compile the model;
[0053] Step S312: Use the time series data set to train the LSTM model, and use the trained LSTM model to predict the new time series data set. The specific model prediction formula is h = f(LSTM(X t ; W)), where h represents the frost prediction value at time point t, f(LSTM(·)) represents the LSTM model, and X t represents the input feature vector at time point t, including the in-vehicle environment data and the occupant physiological data, and W represents the weight of the LSTM model;
[0054] Step S313: By comparing the predicted value h with the preset frost threshold θ 2 For comparison, if h>θ 2 , it is believed that the windshield will be frosted in the future.
[0055] S4: A comprehensive analysis is performed based on the frosting recognition result of the glass surface and the predicted frosting state to obtain a defrost adjustment evaluation coefficient, which is used to perform a defrost adjustment evaluation on the frosted area of the windshield.
[0056] In this embodiment, the S4 divides the windshield into several areas, and is used to accumulate the difference between the frost identification coefficients of all frosted pixels screened out in the feature map of each area and the preset frost threshold, calculate the frost severity of the sub-area, and perform a comprehensive analysis with the frost prediction value to obtain the defrost adjustment evaluation coefficient. The specific calculation formula is: Among them, S v represents the defrost adjustment evaluation coefficient of the vth zone, P(y v,k ) represents the frosting recognition coefficient of pixel k in the feature map of the vth region, θ 1 represents the preset recognition threshold, max(P(y v,k )-θ 1 , 0) means when P(y v,k ) is greater than θ 1 When , the difference is accumulated, otherwise the difference is 0, h represents the frost prediction value, θ 2 represents the preset frosting threshold, and N represents the total number of pixels.

The priority is then adjusted based on the area within the driver's field of vision, and the final priority adjustment result is transmitted to the central control unit.
[0059] It should be specifically stated that the specific execution process of the defrost priority ranking is as follows:
[0060] Step S511: First adjust the evaluation coefficient S according to the defrosting v The size of the windshield is used to determine the defrosting priority of the windshield, and S v The larger the value, the more serious the frost in the area, and a value based on S v The priority list is the result of the preliminary sorting;
[0061] Step S512: marking the areas on the windshield that directly affect the driver's line of sight, which areas generally include the center of the windshield and the part directly in front of the driver's line of sight;
[0062] Step S513: According to the preliminary sorting result, check whether each area is within the driver's line of sight to adjust the order of the priority list. The specific adjustment calculation formula is Z v =S v +α×C v , where Z v represents the comprehensive priority of the vth region, S v represents the defrost adjustment evaluation coefficient of the vth area, α represents the weight coefficient within the adjustment range, C v Indicates that area v is within the driver's line of sight. If it is within the driver's line of sight, then C v =1, otherwise, C v =0;
[0063] Step S514: According to the comprehensive priority Z v The defrost zones are finally sorted to determine the defrost priority for each zone.
[0064] S6: By matching and analyzing the dynamic distribution of the geometric characteristics of the frosting area with the parameters of the air outlet, and calculating the matching adjustment control index, the corresponding air outlet control strategy is matched for each area.
[0065] In this embodiment, the S6 is used to collect parameters of the vehicle air outlet, including wind speed, wind direction and temperature, and images of frosted areas, including position, size and shape, extract geometric features of the frosted area and parameter features of the air outlet from the collected data, and dynamically generate a thermodynamic distribution map using a gradient layered defrosting algorithm based on the geometric features of the fogged area. The temperature gradients of different areas on the windshield are displayed on the thermodynamic distribution map, and the air flow direction and intensity regulated by the air outlet are analyzed based on the parameter characteristics of the air outlet. The thermodynamic distribution map is then matched with the air flow direction and intensity regulated by the air outlet, the defrosting heat and wind speed required for each frosted area are analyzed, and a matching adjustment control index is calculated. The corresponding air outlet control strategy is matched for each area, and the assigned control strategy is transmitted to the central control unit to adjust the parameters of the air outlet to perform defrost control on different windshield areas.
[0066] It should be noted that the specific analysis method for the matching adjustment control index is as follows:
[0067] Step S611: extracting geometric features of the frosted area from the image data, including the position (a, b), area A and shape G, and measuring and acquiring the wind speed V, wind direction D and temperature T of the air outlet through the sensor;

[0069] Step S613: According to the temperature of the frosted area on the thermodynamic distribution diagram and the air flow direction and intensity regulated by the air outlet, the defrosting heat and wind speed required for each frosted area are analyzed, and the defrosting heat is calculated as Q v =ρ×c×A v ×(T′-Td v ), where ρ represents the air density, c represents the specific heat capacity of air, and A v represents the area of the vth frosting area, T′ represents the air temperature blowing from the air outlet to the frosting area, Td v represents the temperature of the vth frosted area shown on the distribution diagram;
[0070] Step S614: Based on the analyzed defrosting heat, the matching analysis is performed with the wind speed required for defrosting, and the matching adjustment control index is calculated as Among them, Y v represents the matching regulation control index of the vth frosting area, Q vIndicates the defrosting heat required for each frosting area, V v ′ represents the defrosting wind speed required for each frosting area, r represents the wind speed influence index, which is usually greater than 1.

[0071] S7: By transmitting the defrost control strategy and defrost adjustment priority ranking of each zone to the central control unit, the defrost zone adjustment of the current windshield is achieved.
[0072] In this embodiment, the S7 adjusts the parameters of the TEC module and the fan according to the control strategy of each area, and then sets a target defrost temperature for each frosted area. The TEC module is heated or cooled to make the area temperature close to the target value, and a temperature sensor is used to monitor the actual temperature. According to the error between the target temperature and the actual temperature, the PID controller adjusts the current of the TEC module to achieve a temperature accuracy of 0.1°C, and sets a target wind speed for each frosted area. The fan speed is adjusted by a PWM signal to achieve the target wind speed. A wind speed sensor is used to monitor the actual wind speed. According to the error between the target wind speed and the actual wind speed, the PID controller adjusts the duty cycle of the PWM signal to achieve a wind speed accuracy of ±5%; and the temperature and wind speed are monitored in real time, and the TEC module and PWM signals are adjusted by the PID controller to continuously maintain the target temperature and target wind speed.
