[0052] The realization of the object of the present invention, functional features and advantages will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Detailed Embodiments

[0053] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0054] Optionally, as Figure 1 shown, this application provides an intelligent constant humidity control FFU integrated system, including:

[0055] An environment perception unit 101, composed of a temperature and humidity sensor, a production equipment heat load monitoring module and a meteorological data interface, is used to collect the internal and external environment parameters of the workshop and the operation status of the equipment in real time;

[0056] Among them, there are multiple temperature and humidity sensors, which are evenly distributed at different positions in the workshop to achieve comprehensive monitoring of the temperature and humidity in the workshop;

[0057] A prediction unit 102 is used to train and generate a model with time series prediction ability by fusing historical production data and real-time environmental fluctuation characteristics, so as to output the temperature and humidity change trends and key adjustment time windows of each partition in the workshop in the future time period;

[0058] A decision-making unit 103 is used to dynamically select a target operation strategy from a process priority mode, an energy-saving mode and an emergency mode based on real-time production process requirements, environmental sensitivity thresholds and energy consumption constraint conditions;

[0059] The parameter optimization unit 104 is used to adjust the wind field parameters of the FFU unit under the target operation strategy by using an optimization algorithm, while maintaining the uniform distribution of temperature and humidity and minimizing the system energy consumption; the adjustment includes the configuration of the fan speed gradient, the coordinated control of the air outlet angle, and the optimization of the air flow circulation path.

[0060] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, the coordination between the FFU unit and the temperature and humidity adjustment equipment is realized. By constructing a dynamic prediction model through multi-source data fusion (environmental parameters, production plans, meteorological data), the accuracy of humidity control is improved, meeting the requirements for humidity fluctuations in key areas in the GMP specification of the pharmaceutical workshop. The parameter optimization module is used to reduce the system energy consumption on the premise of ensuring the uniformity of temperature and humidity. Based on the production process requirements and the environmental sensitivity threshold, the system can complete the operation strategy switch in a timely manner (such as switching from the process priority mode to the emergency mode), and the response speed is significantly improved compared with manual operation, effectively avoiding the wafer oxidation defects caused by sudden changes in humidity in the semiconductor workshop.

[0061] Furthermore, the intelligent constant humidity control FFU integrated system further includes:

[0062] The linkage unit integrates the UWB personnel positioning system and the infrared heat source detection device, and is used to trigger the stepped attenuation of the FFU power in the target partition and the dormancy instruction of the temperature and humidity adjustment equipment when it is detected that there is no personnel activity in the target partition for 10 consecutive minutes and the equipment heat radiation intensity is lower than the threshold;

[0063] Wherein, the threshold is a standard value used to judge whether the equipment is in a low heat load state. When the equipment heat radiation intensity is lower than this threshold, combined with the situation of no personnel activity, the system will consider that the heat load in this area is low and can trigger energy-saving measures.

[0064] For example, in an electronic manufacturing workshop, when the production equipment is in a standby or low-power operation state, its heat radiation intensity may be low. Assume that the equipment heat radiation intensity threshold is set to 50W / m 2 , when the infrared heat source detection device monitors that the equipment heat radiation intensity in the target partition is continuously lower than 50W / m 2 for 10 consecutive minutes, and at the same time the UWB personnel positioning system detects that there is no personnel activity in this area, the system will trigger the stepped attenuation of the FFU power in the target partition and the dormancy instruction of the temperature and humidity adjustment equipment to reduce energy consumption.

[0065] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, the collaborative judgment mechanism of UWB positioning and infrared heat source avoids mis-triggering by a single sensor (such as misjudgment caused by equipment waste heat), ensuring the reliability of the dormancy instruction.

[0066] In some high-precision instrument manufacturing workshops, the control of the environmental temperature and humidity is more stringent, and the equipment heat radiation intensity threshold may be set lower, such as 30W / m2 to ensure that the minute heat changes of the equipment will not affect the environment. In some workshops with relatively loose requirements for temperature and humidity, this threshold may be appropriately increased, such as 70W / m 2 to meet different production requirements.

[0067] The feedback unit collects the environmental response data and equipment execution status of each partition, constructs a deviation traceability model through a Bayesian network, and directionally feeds it back to the prediction unit and the parameter optimization unit for model iteration and update.

[0068] Furthermore, the production equipment heat load monitoring module in the environmental perception unit is connected to the PLC controller through an industrial bus to parse the equipment start-stop signal, material handling volume, and heat load change curve in real time; the environmental perception unit includes:

[0069] The redundancy check network uses a hexagonal honeycomb topology to cover each partition of the workshop, and three groups of cross-checked temperature and humidity sensing nodes are configured for each partition;

[0070] The meteorological data cleaning module performs wavelet transform denoising and dynamic time alignment on the temperature, humidity, and air pressure data of the external weather station;

[0071] The production equipment interface module collects the equipment operation frequency, motor torque, and cooling water flow data in the PLC controller in real time through the OPCUA protocol.

[0072] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, the hexagonal honeycomb topology network suppresses the influence of local interference (such as airflow disturbance caused by personnel movement) on data collection through three groups of sensor cross-checks.

[0073] Furthermore, the prediction unit includes:

[0074] The spatio-temporal hypergraph network module models each partition of the workshop as a hypergraph node, connects the partitions with environmental propagation relationships through hyperedges, and uses spatio-temporal convolution to extract the temperature and humidity diffusion characteristics across partitions;

[0075] The time window predictor analyzes the time interval of historical adjustment events and the Poisson distribution law of production activities based on the hidden Markov jump diffusion model to predict the triggering probability and duration of the future critical adjustment time window; among them, the time window predictor is event-driven;

[0076] The feature fusion module performs tensor fusion on the spatial correlation features output by the hypergraph network and the time window prediction results to generate a partition temperature and humidity evolution map with an uncertainty interval.

[0077] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, the spatio-temporal hypergraph network explicitly models the environmental propagation path between regions (such as the humidity impact of the clean area on the buffer area), improving the cross-regional prediction accuracy.

[0078] Furthermore, the prediction unit further includes:

[0079] A physical constraint network that generates physically reasonable extreme-condition training data by fusing the thermodynamic equations of workshop equipment and the hydrodynamic boundary conditions, including scenarios such as sudden equipment overload, vent blockage, and sudden material moisture absorption;

[0080] A search module that reconstructs the hypergraph network topology based on the partition layout change data collected in real time. Its search strategies include: The partition layout change data includes equipment relocation and partition adjustment;

[0081] Dynamically optimize the hyperedge connection method through a differentiable architecture search algorithm to make the hypergraph network adapt to partition recombination;

[0082] Introduce topological persistence constraints to ensure smooth transition of the network structure between adjacent production batches;

[0083] Introduce a meta-knowledge distillation engine to encode the implicit laws of workshop environment response in the historical prediction model into a lightweight rule set as the prior for model initialization in new scenarios.

[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, the dynamic hypergraph topology optimization equation is as follows:

[0085]

[0086] Among them, W is a hypergraph adjacency matrix, and the matrix element W kn represents the environmental propagation intensity between partition k and partition n (such as humidity diffusion coefficient, temperature gradient influence, etc.); if there are 3 partitions in the workshop (lithography area, etching area, packaging area), then W can be: Among them, W 12 = 0.8 indicates that the environmental propagation intensity from the lithography area to the etching area is relatively high; ⊙ represents the Hadamard Product, that is, element-wise multiplication of matrices; the role of W⊙M {(t-1)} is to retain the key connections of the historical topology; through the Hadamard Product, the system will preferentially retain the historical valid connections when optimizing the new topology W (t) ; W (t) is the edge weight tensor of the hypergraph network at the optimized time t; L task is the loss function for the temperature and humidity prediction task (including spatio-temporal convolution error); M {(t-1)} is the mask matrix (0 / 1 binary) of the historical topology structure at time t-1; p old and p new represent the probability distributions of the hypergraph structure at different times respectively; p old is the probability distribution representing the old hypergraph structure, while p newRepresents the probability distribution of the new hypergraph structure; λ3KL(p old ||p new ) is the KL divergence between the old and new hypergraph structure distributions; λ1, λ2, λ3 are dynamic balance coefficients;

[0087] In practical applications, the values of λ1, λ2, λ3 need to be adjusted according to specific application scenarios and optimization goals. For example, in a scenario with high requirements for the prediction accuracy of temperature and humidity, the value of λ1 can be set relatively large to pay more attention to the loss function of the prediction task. In a scenario that needs to balance the historical topological structure and the difference between the old and new structures, the weights of λ2 and λ3 can be appropriately increased.

[0088] Suppose in the temperature and humidity control application of a certain dust-free workshop, we hope to ensure the prediction accuracy of temperature and humidity while also considering the stability of the historical topological structure and the smooth transition between the old and new structures. We can set the values of λ1, λ2, λ3 to 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2 respectively. This means that we give a higher weight to the loss function of the temperature and humidity prediction task, and at the same time appropriately consider the mask matrix of the historical topological structure and the difference between the old and new hypergraph structure distributions. Such a setting helps to find a balance point in the optimization process, so that the edge weight tensor W(t) of the hypergraph network can maintain the stability and continuity of the structure while meeting the prediction accuracy requirements.

[0089] In the embodiment of this application,

[0090] H t =σ(W s ×Conv3D(F {t-k:t} )+W h ×G(E {ij} ))

[0091] Among them, H t ∈R N×d represents the fusion feature matrix of each partition at time t (N is the number of partitions, d is the feature dimension); F {t-k:t} is the original temperature and humidity data of the past k time slices; i, j represent the node indices in the hypergraph, which are used to define the node set connected by the hyperedge; E {ij} is the partition set connected by the hyperedge; G() is the hypergraph aggregation function, which calculates the environmental propagation intensity between partitions; W s , W h are learnable weight matrices (initialized by meta-knowledge distillation), which are used to perform linear transformations on the original temperature and humidity data and the partition set connected by the hyperedge; The size of W s is dxd, where d is the feature dimension (for example, 8), and it can be initialized to a small random value, such as W s= [[0.1, 0.2, ..., 0.8], [0.2, 0.3, ..., 0.9], ..., [0.8, 0.9, ..., 0.5]]; W h The size of W is dxd and is also initialized with random small values, such as W h = [[0.3, 0.4, ..., 0.6], [0.4, 0.5, ..., 0.7], ..., [0.6, 0.7, ..., 0.4]];

[0092] σ is an activation function. For example, in the temperature and humidity control application of this dust-free workshop, ReLU can be selected as the activation function, which is defined as σ(x) = max(0, x), that is, when the input value is greater than 0, the value is output, otherwise 0 is output;

[0093] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, differentiable architecture search realizes dynamic adjustment of hypergraph topology to adapt to the requirements of workshop reorganization (such as adding new isolation areas), avoiding the retraining cost of traditional fixed topology models; solving the problem that traditional models cannot capture the environmental propagation across partitions. For example, in a pharmaceutical workshop, the lag effect of humidity change in the filling area on the packaging area.

[0094] Furthermore, the decision-making unit includes:

[0095] An attention-based reinforcement learning framework that takes the hypergraph features and time window probabilities output by the prediction unit as state inputs, and extracts environmental sensitivity features at different spatial scales through a hierarchical attention mechanism; where different spatial scales include partition level, device level, and workshop level;

[0096] A fuzzy differential game controller that constructs a game model between the production department (pursuing maximum yield) and the equipment department (pursuing minimum energy consumption), and uses fuzzy differential equations to solve the Pareto optimal strategy;

[0097] A risk-constrained policy distillation module that extracts time window constraint rules from the event-driven model of the prediction unit, encodes them as action masks for reinforcement learning, and restricts the selection of high-risk policies.

[0098] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, the hierarchical attention mechanism focuses on key partitions (such as the aseptic filling area), reducing the control energy consumption in the edge area while ensuring the accuracy of the core area.

[0099] Furthermore, the decision-making unit also includes a heterogeneous policy fusion module and a causal reinforcement intervention module:

[0100] Among them, the heterogeneous policy fusion module is used to perform the following operations: extract key propagation path features from the hypergraph network of the prediction unit to construct an environmental fluctuation propagation probability map; adopt a random walk graph attention mechanism to simulate the propagation influence of different decision-making strategies in the probability map to generate a risk heat map; fuse the risk heat map with real-time production yield data through a dual-stream gating network to dynamically adjust the utility function of the game model;

[0101] As Figure 2 shown, the causal reinforcement intervention module is used to execute the following closed-loop operation chain:

[0102] S201, when the feedback unit detects an environmental deviation, use the counterfactual causal inference algorithm to deduce the optimal intervention action set;

[0103] S202, construct a virtual twin decision-making environment to preview the long-term impact of intervention actions in the digital twin;

[0104] S203, reshape the policy through policy gradients and transfer the optimized policy in the virtual environment to the physical system.

[0105]

[0106] Among them, Δθ is the policy network parameter update amount, which is output by the policy gradient reshaping; π virt is the virtual twin environment policy, which is generated by the digital twin; Q fact is the actual action value function, which represents the value of the actual executed action a in the state s; Q cf is the counterfactual action value function, which represents the value of executing the counterfactual action a cf in the state s; s is the state, which is composed of the hypergraph features output by the prediction unit and the time window probability; a is the action, which is output by the fuzzy differential game controller and is used to control the operation of the FFU unit; a cf is the counterfactual action, which is used for comparative analysis in the virtual environment; η is the transfer learning rate, which is adaptively adjusted according to the workshop stability and can take a value of 0.001; D is the deviation data set, which is provided by the causal discovery engine;

[0107] Based on the embodiments provided in this application, through the counterfactual causal inference algorithm, the system can deduce the optimal intervention action set, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of decision-making. Compared with traditional experience-based decision-making methods, this method can more scientifically predict the consequences of different decisions and avoid the risks brought by blind decision-making. By constructing a virtual twin decision-making environment, the system can preview the long-term impact of intervention actions in the digital twin. This enables the system to evaluate the effect of decisions in advance, adjust strategies in a timely manner, and enhance its adaptability to complex environmental changes. By reshaping the policy through policy gradients, the optimized policy in the virtual environment is migrated to the physical system, achieving more efficient energy management and more precise environmental control. The causal reinforcement intervention module is introduced, combining counterfactual causal inference and virtual twin technology to form an innovative decision optimization mechanism. This mechanism is pioneering in intelligent environmental control systems and provides new ideas and methods for decision optimization of similar systems. The transfer learning rate η can be adaptively adjusted according to the stability of the workshop, ensuring the rationality and effectiveness of policy updates. This adaptive mechanism enables the system to maintain good performance under different working conditions and further improves the intelligence level of the system.

[0108] Further, the linkage unit includes:

[0109] A radar micro-motion sensing system that distinguishes between short-term stays and long-term departures of personnel through Doppler feature analysis;

[0110] A thermal inertia prediction module that constructs a thermal radiation attenuation model after the equipment stops based on the material heat conduction equation;

[0111] A power mapping module that calculates the FFU power attenuation curve according to the thermal inertia model to control the temperature and humidity fluctuations within the process threshold.

[0112] Among them, in a chip manufacturing workshop, the accurate control of temperature and humidity is crucial. The chip manufacturing process has almost stringent requirements for environmental cleanliness and stability. Fluctuations in temperature and humidity not only affect the normal operation of production equipment but may also cause irreversible damage to the quality and performance of chips.

[0113] The temperature control in a chip dust-free workshop is usually set within the range of \(22^{\circ}C \pm 2^{\circ}C\). Too high or too low temperature may lead to a decline in equipment performance or even failure. The stable control of temperature helps reduce the thermal stress during chip manufacturing and lower the product defect rate.

[0114] The humidity control in a chip dust-free workshop is usually set within the range of \(45\% \pm 5\%\). A high-humidity environment helps reduce the accumulation of static charges and lower the damage caused by electrostatic discharge to chips.

[0115] Based on the embodiments provided in the present application, the thermal inertia model predicts the residual heat decay curve of the equipment, realizes the progressive adjustment of the FFU power, and avoids the influence of sudden changes in temperature and humidity on product quality.

[0116] Further, the deviation traceability analysis module of the feedback unit includes:

[0117] A causal discovery engine that uses the PC algorithm based on conditional independence to identify the key causal links of environmental control deviations;

[0118] An incremental knowledge distillation component that converts the traceability results into a lightweight knowledge graph and injects it into the prediction model adjustment process.

[0119] Based on the embodiments provided in the present application, incremental knowledge distillation retains the core features of the historical model (such as the environmental response differences between the morning shift and the evening shift), preventing knowledge forgetting during model iteration.

[0120] Such as Figure 3 shown, optionally, the present application provides a method for applying an intelligent constant humidity control FFU integrated system in a dust-free workshop, including:

[0121] S301, Deploy temperature and humidity sensors, production equipment heat load monitoring modules, and meteorological data interfaces inside the dust-free workshop to collect real-time internal and external environmental parameters of the workshop and the operating status of the equipment;

[0122] S302, Integrate historical production data and real-time environmental fluctuation characteristics, and use the trained model with time series prediction ability to output the temperature and humidity change trends and key adjustment time windows of each partition of the workshop in the future time period;
