However, if other terms can achieve the same purpose, the terms may be replaced by other expressions.

[0018] As used in this specification and claims, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the words "a," "an," "an," and / or "the" do not refer to the singular but also include the plural. Generally speaking, the terms "comprises" and "include" only indicate the inclusion of the steps and elements specifically identified, and these steps and elements do not constitute an exclusive list.

Furthermore, other operations may be added to these processes, or one or more operations may be removed from these processes.

[0020] Existing technologies cannot accurately identify road pollution conditions, and operating parameters are fixed, making it impossible to achieve energy savings while ensuring cleaning results. To address this issue, this paper proposes a multi-sensor fusion recognition system combined with operational control strategy modeling and platform verification and optimization to achieve dynamic regulation and energy-saving control throughout the entire process.

[0021] Figure 1 It is an exemplary module diagram of a washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system according to some embodiments of this specification.

[0022] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system 100 may include a first acquisition module 110 , a pollution assessment module 120 , a mode determination module 130 , and a parameter adjustment module 140 .

[0030] It should be noted that the above description of the control system and its modules for the washing and sweeping vehicle operation is for convenience only and does not limit this specification to the scope of the embodiments. It is understandable that those skilled in the art, after understanding the principles of the system, may arbitrarily combine the modules or form a subsystem connected with other modules without deviating from the principles. In some embodiments, Figure 1 The first acquisition module 110, pollution assessment module 120, pattern determination module 130, and parameter adjustment module 140 can be separate modules within a system, or a single module can implement the functions of two or more of the aforementioned modules. For example, each module can share a storage module, or each module can have its own storage module. Such variations are within the scope of protection of this specification.

[0031] Figure 2 This is an exemplary flow chart of a method for controlling a washing and sweeping vehicle operation according to some embodiments of this specification. Figure 2 As shown, the process 200 includes the following steps. In some embodiments, the process 200 can be executed by a washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system.

[0032] Step 210: Acquire environmental data, where the environmental data includes at least one of a road surface image, a humidity value, and a PM concentration.

[0033] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can collect road surface images, humidity values ​​(%), PM concentration and other information based on the AI ​​vision system and humidity and particulate matter sensors.

[0034] Step 220: Determine the pollution situation based on the environmental data.

[0035] In some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the control system of the washing and sweeping vehicle operation can determine the pollution score S corresponding to the pollution situation based on the collected road image, humidity value (%), PM concentration and other information by looking up a table or other methods. dirt .

[0036] Step 230: Determine an operation mode based on the pollution situation.

[0037] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system may query a database based on historical experience statistics according to the pollution situation to determine the operation mode.

[0038] Step 240: Adjust the operating parameters based on the operating mode and the parameter adjustment algorithm.

[0039] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can be combined with the adjustment function to adjust the operation parameters based on the operation mode and parameter adjustment algorithm.

[0040] As an example only, the control system for a washing and sweeping vehicle can automatically select the operating mode gear according to the pollution score and adjust the sweeping brush speed ω, the water spray pressure P, and the suction force F. The adjustment function is as follows:

[0041] ω=ω base +k1·S dirt ;

[0042] P=P base +k2·S dirt ;

[0043] F=F base +k3·S dirt ; Among them, k1, k2, and k3 are environmental adaptability coefficients, which can be determined based on regional and weather data to ensure optimal operation results in different regions and weather conditions. base 、P base 、F base They are basic sweeping speed, basic water spray pressure, and basic suction, which can be obtained based on presets.

[0044] In some embodiments, the method further includes: acquiring scenario data; and determining, based on the scenario data, operation parameters corresponding to various scenarios through a strategy model, where the strategy model is a machine learning model.

[0045] Further explanation of the strategy model is provided below.

[0046] In some embodiments, the vehicle's control system can also pre-configure strategies for different scenarios. For example, for fallen leaves, high speed, medium water volume, and medium suction are recommended; for mud, slow speed, high water volume, and strong suction are recommended; and for dust, high suction and controllable water pressure are recommended. The vehicle's control system also employs fuzzy control or neural networks to implement multivariable nonlinear control, and strategies can be dynamically configured on the platform.

[0047] In some embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining the water, electricity consumption and time parameters of the washing and sweeping vehicle under various operating modes; determining the energy consumption evaluation of the washing and sweeping vehicle under different operating modes based on the water, electricity consumption and time parameters; and optimizing the operating parameters based on the energy consumption evaluation.

[0048] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can record the water and electricity consumption and time parameters in each mode to build an energy efficiency model: E total =a1·T+a2·∫P(t)dt+a3·∫ω(t)dt evaluates the energy consumption performance in different modes and provides a basis for strategy optimization. total For energy consumption evaluation, T is the time consumption, ∫P(t)dt is the energy consumption caused by water spraying, ∫ω(t)dt is the energy consumption caused by vacuuming, and a1, a2, and a3 are weight coefficients, which can be preset or adjusted based on the mode.

[0049] In some embodiments, the vehicle's control system can determine the operating parameters with the lowest energy consumption estimate that meet cleaning requirements in each mode, thereby optimizing the operating parameters. Actual measurements show that energy savings can reach 20% in lightly polluted areas.

[0050] In some embodiments, the method further includes: acquiring historical operation data; determining a high-pollution area based on the historical operation data; and adopting a preset operation intensity in response to the current area being the high-pollution area.

[0051] In some embodiments, the control system for the washing and sweeping vehicle operation can be modeled based on historical data to identify high-pollution areas and set the operation intensity of the high-pollution areas in advance, such as: Rpollute = Nhigh dirt / Ntotal and adjust the preset parameters before entering the area next time to achieve strategy memory and prediction. Among them, Rpollute(x,y) is the intensity adjustment coefficient, Nhigh dirt is the number of high-pollution areas, Ntotal is the number of all cleaning areas, and the preset operation intensity is as follows:

[0052] ω=ω base *(1+Rpollute);

[0053] P=Pbase *(1+Rpollute);

[0054] F=F base *(1+Rpollute).

[0055] In some embodiments, the policy model may be a machine learning model, such as a neural network model (NN).

[0056] In some embodiments, the input of the strategy model may include scenario data, and the output may include job parameters corresponding to the scenario.

[0057] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system may train the strategy model based on the first training sample set.

[0058] The first sample set includes a first training sample and a corresponding first label.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first training sample includes sample scene data. The washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system may obtain the first training sample from historical data of the sample washing and sweeping vehicle.

[0060] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can determine multiple historical operation data from the historical data, use the corresponding qualified cleaning data as the first training sample, and use the actual operation parameters corresponding to the scene data as the first label.

[0061] In some embodiments, for each historical operation data, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can determine whether it is qualified based on its cleaning quality and the like.

[0062] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can perform multiple rounds of iterations, at least one of which includes: selecting one or more first training samples from a first sample data set, inputting the one or more first training samples into an initial strategy model, and obtaining model prediction outputs corresponding to the one or more first training samples; substituting the model prediction outputs corresponding to the one or more first training samples and the first labels of the one or more first training samples into a predefined loss function formula to calculate the value of the loss function; and reversely updating the model parameters in the initial strategy model based on the value of the loss function; this step can be performed using various methods. For example, the update can be based on the gradient descent method. When the iteration end condition is met, the iteration ends and a trained strategy model is obtained.

[0063] In some embodiments, the washing and sweeping vehicle operation control system can continuously optimize the strategy model through the latest data accumulation and learning to improve accuracy and adaptability.

[0064] In summary, the present invention can achieve dynamic intelligent control of the operation behavior of washing and sweeping vehicles, saving operation resources and improving operation quality, and has strong practicality and industry promotion value. It is particularly suitable for urban assessment scenarios where both operation quality and energy conservation are equally important.
