[0002] The traditional coal mining industry has long been faced with the deep-seated contradiction between complex geological conditions, high-risk operating environment and low-efficiency management mode. In the scene where uncontrollable factors such as variable geological structure, gas outburst and water hazard threat are intertwined, the traditional manual inspection, experience-based decision-making and post-disposal mode has been difficult to meet the safety production demand of zero tolerance for accidents. The digital twinning technology, by constructing a digital mirror that maps the physical coal mine and the virtual space in real time, fusing Internet of Things sensing, multi-source heterogeneous data fusion, high-precision simulation modeling and artificial intelligence algorithms, realizes the dynamic monitoring and full-factor visualization of mine environment parameters (such as gas concentration, ground pressure distribution, ventilation state), and its core value lies in breaking the boundary between the physical world and the digital world, through the closed-loop feedback mechanism of virtual and real interaction, not only can simulate the whole life cycle operation state of the mine in the virtual space, and predict the disaster risks such as water inrush and roof fall in advance, but also can provide dynamic optimization decision support for emergency plan making, equipment health management, personnel path planning and other scenarios based on real-time data flow driven intelligent analysis model, so as to transform passive accident response into active risk control. The innovation of this technical architecture not only significantly improves the intrinsic safety level of coal mining enterprises, but also reduces the unplanned downtime and optimizes the mining operation efficiency through data-driven intelligent decision-making, and ultimately ensures the safety of miners while promoting the leap-forward development of the coal industry towards digitalization and intelligentization.
[0003] In the prior art, a particle swarm-genetic hybrid algorithm (PSO-GA) and a multi-agent game optimization and other composite algorithm system are adopted. The advantage lies in that through the multi-objective collaborative optimization mechanism and the distributed intelligent decision-making capability, the dynamic balance problem of the three major targets of safety, efficiency and cost in the coal mine safety production is systematically solved. However, the calculation complexity of the multi-objective optimization algorithm, the particle swarm-genetic hybrid algorithm (PSO-GA) and the multi-agent game optimization and other composite algorithm system have good optimization performance, but the calculation complexity is high, and it may be difficult to meet the real-time decision-making demand, therefore, it is particularly important to propose the coal mine safety production intelligent decision-making method and system based on digital twinning.
