[0002] Cell culture is a core technical means in the fields of biomedical research, biopharmaceuticals, cell therapy, etc., and its culture effect directly determines the quality and efficiency of subsequent research or production. Cell growth is highly sensitive to environmental conditions, and subtle changes in multiple environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, pH value, dissolved oxygen, nutrient concentration, and contamination bacteria content can cause abnormal cell growth, morphological variation, or even death.
[0003] The cell culture environment monitoring and control technology generally has the following shortcomings: first, the data collection dimension is single and lacks regional specificity, and multiple sensors are usually used to collect overall environmental data, making it difficult to capture environmental differences in different micro-regions within the culture container, resulting in the problem of regionalized uneven environment being ignored; second, the feature processing capability is weak, and the fusion of multi-dimensional heterogeneous environmental data is mostly limited to simple splicing or weighted processing, which cannot mine the deep semantic association between different dimensional data, and the feature representation accuracy is insufficient. Therefore, developing a cell culture environment intelligent monitoring and control system that can perform multi-dimensional micro-region accurate perception and deep feature fusion intelligent monitoring and control system has become a key requirement to solve the pain points of existing technology and improve the quality and efficiency of cell culture.

[0020] Reference Figure 1 As shown, an intelligent monitoring and control system for cell culture environment includes: Environmental perception module, feature fusion enhancement module, intelligent state assessment module, and precise control strategy module; The environmental perception module is used to collect multi-dimensional heterogeneous data of the cell culture environment and generate a standardized environmental feature set. The feature fusion enhancement module is electrically connected to the environment perception module. The feature fusion enhancement module is used to perform multimodal fusion and cross-dimensional feature association and enhancement based on the standardized environmental feature set to generate high-dimensional fusion feature data. The intelligent state assessment module is electrically connected to the feature fusion enhancement module. The intelligent state assessment module is used to perform quantitative assessment and type classification of cell growth status based on the high-dimensional fusion feature data to obtain a cell growth status assessment report. The precise regulation strategy module is electrically connected to the intelligent state assessment module. The precise regulation strategy module is used to construct a personalized regulation model based on the cell growth state assessment report and output a targeted combination of culture environment regulation parameters.
[0021] The environmental perception module is implemented as follows: Data Acquisition Unit: Based on the environmental monitoring needs of the cell culture scenario, a sensor deployment scheme is planned to cover environmental parameters across three dimensions: physical, chemical, and biological. The physical dimension focuses on fundamental environmental indicators affecting cell growth, the chemical dimension focuses on chemical indicators related to cell metabolism, and the biological dimension focuses on indicators related to pollution control and metabolic byproducts. All sensors collect data synchronously according to a unified time sequence and transmit it to the data preprocessing unit via a pre-set communication bus to ensure the synchronicity and integrity of the data acquisition.
[0022] Data preprocessing unit: For the collected multi-dimensional heterogeneous data, noise reduction processing is first performed, and an appropriate filtering algorithm is used to eliminate invalid information caused by environmental interference and sensor errors. Then, normalization processing is performed, and the influence of data with different dimensions is eliminated by a preset normalization method, mapping the data of each dimension to a unified range and generating a standardized environmental feature set. The entire preprocessing process builds a data cleaning pipeline to ensure that the data format is uniform and the information is effective.
[0023] Data Quality Verification Unit: Constructs a three-dimensional validity evaluation index system including completeness, accuracy, and timeliness. For each of the preprocessed standardized environmental feature sets, quality verification is carried out. For data that does not meet the completeness requirements, an appropriate interpolation method is used to supplement the missing information. For data with abnormal accuracy, it is judged and removed based on historical data trends. For data that is outdated in timeliness, a re-collection command is triggered. After verification, a high-quality standardized environmental feature set is output to provide reliable data support for subsequent feature processing.
[0024] Micro-region acquisition unit: Based on the structural characteristics of the culture container, the deployment positions of the distributed micro-sensor array are planned to ensure coverage of different micro-regions within the container. Environmental data of each micro-region is collected according to a preset time sequence, forming multiple sets of micro-region environmental data subsets. This enables precise capture of local environmental differences within the culture container, compensating for the shortcomings of global acquisition in reflecting local environmental conditions.
[0025] Regional Difference Analysis Unit: Based on a subset of micro-regional environmental data, an adapted difference calculation method is used to compare the degree of deviation between each micro-region and the overall environmental parameters. Combined with data visualization tools, a micro-regional environmental difference heat map is constructed to intuitively present the environmental distribution and deviation level of each micro-region, providing an intuitive basis for subsequent regional targeted regulation.
[0026] Data fusion output unit: Constructs a feature association mapping mechanism to fuse the spatial distribution information contained in the micro-region environmental difference heat map with a high-quality standardized environmental feature set, supplementing the feature information of the regional dimension. The fusion process fully considers the weight ratio of global features and local features to form a complete standardized environmental feature set, which is output to the feature fusion enhancement module through a preset communication method.
[0027] The feature fusion enhancement module is implemented as follows: Multimodal Feature Mapping Unit: Based on the standardized environmental feature set output by the environmental perception module, an adapted feature encoder is constructed according to data type classification. Differentiated feature extraction logic is designed for the data characteristics of different dimensions such as physical, chemical and biological data. The features of each dimension are converted into feature vectors of a unified dimension and integrated to form a multi-dimensional feature vector set, laying the foundation for cross-dimensional fusion.
[0028] Cross-dimensional fusion unit: A multi-dimensional feature fusion model is constructed by adopting a Transformer-based cross-modal attention fusion algorithm. The self-attention mechanism is used to mine the internal dependencies of single-dimensional features and enhance the representation ability of single-dimensional features. Then, the interaction relationship between different-dimensional features is constructed through the cross-attention mechanism to achieve deep semantic fusion of multi-modal features. The fusion process is executed according to a preset iterative logic, ultimately outputting global fused feature data. Linear embedding is performed on the feature vectors of each dimension to achieve a unified mapping of feature dimensions. Simultaneously, positional encoding information is added to preserve the temporal characteristics of the data, ensuring that temporal information can be fully utilized in subsequent fusion processes, thus improving the integrity of feature fusion. The embedded and encoded feature data of each dimension are input into the attention layer. By calculating the dependency weights of each element within a single-dimensional feature, the representation of key information is strengthened, and redundant information is suppressed, resulting in enhanced feature data for each dimension. Following a preset query, key, and value matching logic, the enhanced features of each dimension are used sequentially as query information, and the enhanced features of the other two dimensions are concatenated as key and value information. Cross-attention calculation is performed, and this process is executed iteratively to fully explore the interactive relationships between features of different dimensions, obtaining intermediate fused feature data. This intermediate fused feature data is then input into a feedforward neural network for optimization, ultimately outputting global fused feature data.
[0029] Feature Enhancement Unit: Based on globally fused feature data, an attention mechanism is introduced to construct a feature enhancement model. By calculating the importance weights of each feature channel, key features that significantly affect cell growth status assessment are strengthened, interference from redundant feature information is suppressed, and the discriminative power and robustness of feature representation are further improved, generating high-dimensional fused feature data.
[0030] Feature Dimensionality Reduction Unit: To address the dimensionality redundancy problem in high-dimensional fused feature data, principal component analysis is used to perform dimensionality reduction. By calculating the feature covariance matrix, principal components whose cumulative contribution rate meets the preset requirements are selected, and invalid redundant dimensions are eliminated to obtain low-dimensional optimized fused features, thereby improving the efficiency of subsequent model processing.
[0031] Feature Validation Unit: Constructs a feature matching validation mechanism to compare the low-dimensional optimized fused features with historical feature data in the cell growth baseline database and calculate the feature matching degree. If the matching degree meets the preset threshold, it indicates that the current fused feature is effective, and high-dimensional fused feature data is output; if the matching degree does not meet the requirements, it returns to the cross-dimensional fusion unit, adjusts the fusion model parameters, and re-optimizes until the feature matching degree meets the standard.
[0032] Feature Time Series Association Unit: Introduces a time series feature extraction model to associate high-dimensional fusion feature data of continuous time series. By extracting historical time series feature information, it supplements the time dimension attributes of features to form time series high-dimensional fusion feature data, providing time series support for subsequent trend prediction of cell growth status, and outputting it to the intelligent state assessment module.
[0033] The intelligent status assessment module is implemented as follows: Evaluation Index Construction Unit: Based on the time-series high-dimensional fused feature data output by the feature fusion enhancement module, and combined with the physiological characteristics of cell growth, a multi-dimensional core evaluation index system is constructed. This index system covers cell growth rate, morphological integrity, metabolic activity, and environmental adaptability, comprehensively reflecting the core state of cell growth and providing index support for quantitative evaluation.
[0034] Quantitative evaluation unit: The weight of each evaluation indicator is determined by the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and a judgment matrix is constructed by combining the experience of domain experts. After consistency testing, the final weight is determined. Based on the standard thresholds in the cell growth baseline database, an appropriate scoring method is used to calculate the quantitative score of each indicator. Finally, the comprehensive evaluation value is calculated by combining the indicator weights to achieve a quantitative representation of cell growth status.
[0035] State Clustering Unit: An improved clustering algorithm with cell generation weight coefficients is adopted to perform cluster analysis on the comprehensive evaluation value. Combining the influence of cell generation on growth state, differentiated generation weight coefficients are set, and cluster centers are initialized according to the preset number of clusters. By iteratively updating the cluster centers, the cell growth state is divided into four categories: optimal growth state, adaptive state to be regulated, critical abnormal state, and severe abnormal state, so as to achieve fine classification of growth state. The improved clustering algorithm update formula is as follows:
[0036] In the formula, For the first Cluster centers after the next iteration For the first The generational weighting coefficients of individual cell samples. For the first The overall assessment value of each cell sample.
[0037] Trend prediction unit: Based on time-series high-dimensional fusion feature data, a time-series prediction model is trained. The model parameters are optimized using historical feature sequences and corresponding growth states as training samples, so that the model has the ability to extract time-series features and predict trends. The input is the historical feature sequence to be predicted, and the output is the trend of cell growth state changes and the probability of abnormal risks within a preset time period, so as to achieve a forward-looking prediction of growth state. The formula for updating the hidden state of the LSTM core is as follows:
[0038] In the formula, for LSTM hidden state at time step for Output gate output value at any time, The hyperbolic tangent activation function is used. for Cellular state at all times It is the Sigmoid activation function. This is the output gate weight matrix. for Hide your status at all times. for Temporal high-dimensional fusion features of input at any time; This is the output gate bias term; Evaluation and calibration unit: Constructs a historical data traceability and evaluation optimization mechanism, calls historical monitoring and control data within a preset time period, compares the actual growth status with the evaluation results, calculates the evaluation error, and if the evaluation error exceeds the preset range, uses an appropriate optimization algorithm to correct the evaluation index weights and clustering thresholds, and iterates and calibrates repeatedly until the evaluation error meets the requirements, thereby improving the accuracy of the evaluation results.
[0039] Report generation unit: Integrates quantitative assessment results, status classification, trend prediction and other information to build a standardized assessment report generation mechanism. The report includes status level labeling, abnormal risk warning and key influencing factor analysis. It adopts an intuitive presentation format to label the status level and risk level, and outputs to the precision control strategy module through a preset interface to provide a comprehensive basis for the formulation of control strategies.
[0040] The specific implementation process for the precise control strategy module is as follows: Regulatory Factor Extraction Unit: Based on the cell growth status assessment report output by the intelligent status assessment module, the unit uses an association rule mining algorithm to extract key regulatory factors that affect cell growth status. Combining the physiological needs of cell growth and environmental adaptation characteristics, the unit determines the categories of core regulatory factors, covering key areas such as temperature regulation, pH calibration, nutrient supplementation, and pollution control.
[0041] Factor Priority Ranking Unit: A combined weighting strategy of entropy weighting and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is adopted to determine the priority weight of each regulatory factor. Entropy weighting calculates objective weights based on historical regulatory data, reflecting the information entropy characteristics of the data itself; AHP calculates subjective weights based on the experience of domain experts, reflecting the regulatory needs in actual applications. The final priority weights are obtained through weighted fusion, clarifying the regulatory priority of each regulatory factor.
[0042] Regulation Model Construction Unit: For different growth states, a personalized regulation model is constructed. Based on the key influencing factors and regulation factor priorities in the evaluation report, a differentiated regulation logic is designed to match the appropriate regulation direction and initial regulation parameter range for each growth state, ensuring the relevance and adaptability of the regulation model.
[0043] Regional Targeted Regulation Unit: Combining the micro-regional environmental difference heatmap output by the environmental sensing module, a regional differentiated regulation mechanism is constructed. Based on the degree of environmental deviation and the corresponding cell growth state in different micro-regions, the initial regulation parameter range is specifically modified to form regional regulation parameters, thereby achieving precise regulation with a one-region-one-policy approach and solving the problem of inaccurate regulation caused by uneven local environment.
[0044] Pre-validation unit for regulatory effects: A virtual simulation model of cell culture is constructed based on digital twin technology to reproduce the environmental characteristics and cell growth patterns of actual cell culture. Regionalized regulatory parameters and current environmental characteristics are input into the simulation model to simulate the cell growth state within a preset time after regulation, and the regulation simulation optimization rate is calculated. If the optimization rate meets the preset requirements, the parameter output stage begins; if the optimization rate does not meet the requirements, the weights of the regulatory factors are readjusted, and the verification is repeated until the requirements are met.
[0045] Parameter optimization unit: The unit uses an intelligent optimization algorithm to finely optimize the verified regional control parameters. The objective function is set as the optimal control effect. Through iterative optimization, the range of parameter fluctuations is narrowed, and invalid parameter combinations are eliminated to obtain a subset of precise control parameters, thereby further improving the accuracy and stability of the control parameters.
[0046] Control command generation unit: The precise control parameter subset is structured and organized according to the control factor type and micro-region division to generate standardized control commands. The commands clearly specify the operation requirements, execution timing and duration of each control device. The commands are sent to the field control devices using an appropriate industrial communication protocol to ensure the accurate execution of the control commands.
[0047] Parameter Feedback Unit: Constructs a regulatory effect feedback mechanism. Through the environmental perception module, it collects environmental data and cell growth status data in real time after the execution of regulatory commands, calculates the regulatory effect evaluation value, and transmits the feedback data to the intelligent status evaluation module for evaluation index calibration, regulatory model optimization, and iterative improvement of subsequent regulatory strategies, forming a closed-loop optimization.
[0048] The regulation database update unit constructs a historical data storage and update mechanism, storing evaluation reports, regulation parameters, and effect data from this regulation process into the system database according to preset naming rules, enriching the historical sample library. When the number of new samples added to the database reaches a preset threshold, incremental training is performed on the regulation model to continuously improve the adaptability and accuracy of the regulation model and ensure the stability of subsequent regulation effects.
[0049] In summary, the advantages of this invention are as follows: Through the multi-dimensional data acquisition unit and micro-area acquisition unit of the environmental sensing module, combined with the distributed micro-sensor array, physical, chemical and biological multi-dimensional environmental data and environmental difference data of different micro-areas can be collected simultaneously.

The intelligent state assessment module constructs a multi-core indicator system and adopts an improved clustering algorithm that introduces cell generation weight coefficients to achieve refined classification of cell growth status. Combined with the LSTM deep learning network, it can accurately predict the trend of cell growth status changes and the probability of abnormal risks in the next 24 hours. With the assessment and calibration mechanism, it further improves the accuracy of assessment and prediction, and provides a scientific basis for precise regulation. The precision regulation strategy module constructs a personalized regulation model based on cell growth status assessment reports and micro-regional environmental differences, achieving differentiated and precise regulation through regional targeted regulation. Combined with the pre-validation of regulation effects using digital twin technology and the fine-tuning of parameters using particle swarm optimization algorithms, it can effectively avoid over- or under-regulation and improve the effectiveness of regulation. At the same time, through parameter feedback and database update mechanisms, it enables continuous iterative optimization of the regulation model, ensuring the stability and consistency of cell culture.
