Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of machine learning, deep learning, intelligent manufacturing and industrial automation, and in particular to a motion control optimization method for large-scale bulk material equipment based on deep learning. Background Art
[0002] In modern industrial production, large-scale bulk material handling equipment is widely used in locations such as mines, ports, and power plants for loading, unloading, and stacking large quantities of materials. Due to the complex and ever-changing operating environment, traditional single-sensor sensing methods struggle to fully capture the material state and equipment operating conditions. This can lead to control deviations, impacting operational efficiency and even causing equipment failure. Therefore, intelligent perception and decision-making based on multi-source information fusion are crucial for improving the automation level of bulk material handling equipment.
[0003] In the field of large-scale bulk material handling equipment, precise control of the material conveying process is a critical component of industrial production. To ensure operational efficiency and safety standards, industry standards have established strict technical specifications for parameters such as equipment motion trajectory and operating speed. Due to the strong coupling between various control parameters in the system, the equipment's operating state is easily affected by material characteristics and environmental factors, leading to control imbalances and posing a severe challenge to the equipment's efficient and stable operation. Therefore, achieving intelligent control of large-scale bulk material handling equipment has become a key issue that needs to be urgently addressed to ensure production efficiency and operational safety. This type of motion control optimization is not only a complex nonlinear control problem, but also a systems engineering project involving multi-sensor fusion and multi-objective optimization. Research on precise control and stable operation has become a key research direction in the field of industrial automation. Traditional control methods generally rely on single-modality sensor data and empirical models. However, in practice, vision-based methods are susceptible to interference from lighting and weather, and lidar performance degrades in dusty environments. On the one hand, the traditional control methods based on physical mechanism modeling in the existing control technology system have poor adaptability to dynamically changing working conditions. On the other hand, advanced control algorithms based on policy gradients generally have technical bottlenecks such as insufficient stability and poor convergence during the training process.
[0004] To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned existing technologies, a cross-modal attention LSTM-PPO (Long Short-Term Memory-Proximal Policy Optimization) decision network that integrates multi-source data is proposed for motion control optimization. This approach enables precise perception and control of complex working conditions, leveraging the complementary strengths of multi-source features to build a more complete environmental perception system. Building on the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm, this approach introduces a cross-modal attention mechanism and a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) temporal modeling module. By extracting temporal features, this approach enhances the system's adaptability to dynamic working conditions, resulting in more stable training and a more optimized control strategy. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention proposes a motion control optimization method for large-scale bulk material equipment based on deep learning. The motion control optimization of large-scale bulk material equipment is achieved through a cross-modal attention mechanism and an LSTM-PPO network model. The cross-modal attention mechanism can effectively fuse multi-source data such as lidar point clouds and visual images, and the PPO algorithm can automatically learn the weight distribution of different sensor data, significantly improving the feature fusion effect. In addition, the LSTM network can accurately capture the temporal dependency of the equipment's operating status and address the impact of historical operating status on current control decisions. This method can stabilize the equipment's operating parameters within the optimal range and improve its dynamic response characteristics, thereby enhancing the system's adaptability and ensuring long-term operational reliability.

Step 1.2: Use the curvature-based feature point detection method for the point cloud data obtained by the lidar. For any point p in the point cloud, i , construct its local neighborhood point set N(p i ), the local geometric features are characterized by calculating the covariance matrix C of the neighborhood points: where p j is a point in the neighborhood, μ is the centroid of the neighborhood point set, T is the transpose, and the eigenvalue λ0≤λ1≤λ2 is obtained according to the covariance matrix, and then the point p is calculated. i The curvature K; τ=0.04e -0.3ρ Retention satisfaction point, is the threshold, ρ is the local point cloud density, and the key features of the stockpile contour are screened out; Step 1.3: Use the improved ORB feature detector to extract visual features from the image collected by the RGB industrial camera, and use the FAST feature detection algorithm with adaptive threshold to calculate the feature point response value: Where Ω represents the detection window centered at (x, y), I(u, v) is the pixel intensity value, I(x, y) is the center pixel intensity value, and the feature point N is dynamically controlled according to the overall image contrast. f quantity: where N max is the maximum feature point, Represents the image contrast measurement value, and k is the adjustment coefficient.
