Application of integrating reinforcement learning and intelligent scheduling in logistics distribution

Logistics distribution is an indispensable part of the modern economy and is crucial for ensuring the efficient operation of the supply chain. With the continuous progress of technology, the application of intelligent scheduling systems in the field of logistics distribution is becoming increasingly widespread. Reinforcement learning, as one of the hot technologies in the field of artificial intelligence, is gradually receiving attention in its application in intelligent scheduling. Reinforcement learning can continuously learn and predict the same thing to enhance memory, while intelligent scheduling requires continuous prediction and optimization of logistics distribution paths. In response to the current problems of slow logistics distribution efficiency and low customer satisfaction, this article analyzed the application of intelligent scheduling in logistics distribution from the aspects of basic data maintenance, basic data review, intelligent scheduling, scheduling result review, distribution information management, and vehicle tracking. By using reinforcement learning, the traffic network weight in logistics distribution was studied to improve logistics distribution efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Multi-cloud resource scheduling intelligent system with endogenous security

<abstract> <p>A secure and reliable intelligent multi-cloud resource scheduling system in cyberspace is especially important in some industry applications. However, this task has become exceedingly challenging due to the intricate nature of information, the variety of knowledge representations, the compatibility of diverse knowledge reasoning engines, and the numerous security threats found in cloud networks. In this paper, we applied the endogenous security theory to the multi-cloud resource scheduling intelligent system and presented a novel model of the system. The proposed model incorporates various knowledge representations and inference engines, resulting in a multi-cloud resource scheduling intelligent system that ensures endogenous security. In addition, we have devised a scheme for an intelligent system that schedules multi-cloud resources using dual-channels and has an endogenous security mechanism, which we have named Dynamic, Heterogeneous, and Redundant (DHR). Finally, we have used the multi-cloud resource scheduling intelligent run log database to carry out numerous experiments to validate the efficiency of the dual-channel redundant reasoning system with the endogenous security mechanism's DHR property. The results of the experiment demonstrated that the multi-cloud resource intelligent scheduling system model with an endogenous security mechanism was superior to the current single-channel inference system scheme in regards to security and reliability.</p> </abstract>

Learning to schedule dynamic distributed reconfigurable workshops using expected deep Q-network

Distributed manufacturing has become common in the globalized production environment. Facing the tendency of mass customization, distributed workshops are required to have the reconfiguration capability to produce multiple products. Based on the scheduling demands of distributed workshops, this paper studied the dynamic distributed reconfigurable flowshop scheduling problem (DRFSP) with new job arrivals using deep reinforcement learning (DRL) for the first time. The DRL-based intelligent scheduling and reconfiguration systems are modeled by designing efficient rewards, actions, and state features for both scheduling and reconfiguration agents. A new state feature normalization approach is proposed to address the variability in production configurations and dynamics. A novel expected deep Q-network (EDQN) algorithm is proposed to provide more precise state-action values rather than using estimations. Moreover, the DRL-based training and execution procedures for the dynamic DRFSP are provided by combining decision-making, agent learning, and reconfigurable production. Training curves validate the reasonableness of system modeling and the good learning efficiency of the EDQN algorithm. Extensive comparison experiments show that our EDQN algorithm outperforms three popular DRL algorithms and four well-known priority dispatching rules (PDRs) by around 20 % and 89 % respectively, with good generalization ability and time efficiency. The average decision time under dynamics is only 0.65 ms, which enables real-time scheduling.

Efficient and privacy-preserving multi-agent systems for smart city carpooling with k-regret queries and differential privacy

Multi-Agent Systems are characterized by the presence of multiple independent agents and find diverse applications. In the context of smart cities, MAS is employed in traffic management to enhance operational efficiency, optimize resource utilization, and improve the quality of life for residents. This research paper focuses on the design of a multi-agent intelligent scheduling system, where passengers, vehicles, and carpooling platforms serve as intelligent agents. The primary objective of passengers is to identify suitable shared vehicles based on criteria such as waiting time, budget constraints, and willingness to carpool. Vehicles, on the other hand, organize their schedules based on passenger demands and designated routes. The carpooling platform takes into account resource allocation priority and optimization problems to ensure the efficient operation of the system. To address the issue of vehicle ordering, k-regret queries are utilized, while passenger preferences provide insight into determining loss factors. To safeguard privacy, differential privacy techniques and a random response mechanism are employed when dealing with multiple passenger queries. Furthermore, a direction-preserving insertion verification method is implemented to mitigate computational complexity. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach are validated through experimentation.

Precision Location-Aware and Intelligent Scheduling System for Monorail Transporters in Mountain Orchards

This study addressed the issue of the real-time monitoring and control of the transporter in a mountain orchard terrain characterized by varying topography, closed canopy, shade, and other environmental factors. This study involved independent research and the development of a series of electric monorail transporters. First, the application requirements of “Where is the monorail transporter?” were examined, and an accurate location-aware method based on high-frequency radio frequency identification (RFID) technology was proposed. In addition, a location-aware hardware system based on STM32 + RFID + LoRa was designed to determine the position of the monorail transporter on a rail. Second, regarding the application requirements of “Where is the monorail transporter going?”, a multimode control gateway system based on Raspberry Pi + LoRa + 5G was designed. An Android mobile terminal can obtain operational information about the transport plane in real time through the gateway system and remotely control its operation. The track-changing branch structure enables multimachine autonomous intelligent avoidance. Based on the experimental results of monorail transporter positioning in mountain orchards under various typical terrains, such as flat surfaces, turning paths, and uphill/downhill slopes, the road section average relative error of the 7ZDGS–250-type monorail transporter was 1.27% when the distance between benchmark positioning tags was set at 10 m on both flat and turning roads, and that of the 7ZDGS–300-type monorail transporter was 1.35% when the distance between benchmark positioning tags was set at 6 m uphill/downhill. The road section relative error of the 7ZDGS–250-type monorail transporter was 21.18%, and that of the 7ZDGS–300-type monorail transporter was 9.96%. In addition, the experimental results of monorail transporter communication control showed that the combination of the multimode control gateway control system and track-changing branch structure can achieve multimachine cooperation and autonomous avoidance function, ensuring that multiple monorail transporters can operate simultaneously without collision. The findings of this study establish the communication link of “monorail transporter-gateway system-control terminal” and form a precise positioning and real-time control scheme applicable to the operating environment of monorail transporters, thereby improving the intelligence and safety of mountain orchard monorail transporters.

Deep reinforcement learning for solving steelmaking-continuous casting scheduling problems under time-of-use tariffs

This paper proposes a novel intelligent scheduling method based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to solve the multi-objective steelmaking-continuous casting (SCC) scheduling problem, under time-of-use (TOU) tariffs for the first time. The intelligent scheduling system architecture is designed, and a mathematical model is established to minimise the total sojourn time and electricity cost. To effectively reduce production costs by avoiding peak periods of electricity consumption, the ‘start time’ of the system is generated based on the Markov Decision Process (MDP), and heuristic scheduling rules related to power cost are used as the action space, with corresponding reward functions designed according to the characteristics of these two objectives. To satisfy the continuous casting which is a particular SCC constraint, a backward strategy is developed. Additionally, a branching duelling double deep Q-network (BD3QN) is adapted to guide action selection and avoid blind search in the iteration process, and then applied to real-time scheduling. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms comparison algorithms in terms of solution quality and CPU times by a large margin.

AbstractIn the process of grid connection of irregular output micro‐grid systems, it is of great research significance to make micro‐grid scheduling operate more effectively and economically. To minimize the environmental and total operating costs of the micro‐grid intelligent scheduling system during grid connection, this study proposes a micro‐grid intelligent scheduling model based on an optimized particle swarm optimization algorithm. The optimized particle swarm algorithm mainly improves the problem of the particle swarm algorithm being prone to local optima, making it reduce the possibility of local convergence. Comparative tests were conducted on the improved IPSO algorithm, and the results showed that the non‐dominated solution concentration pollution emissions obtained by the improved IPSO algorithm were at least 18326 Ib, which was lower than the comparison algorithm. In the empirical analysis of the intelligent scheduling model based on the improved IPSO algorithm, the convergence and satisfaction of the model were 0.0054 and 0.922, respectively, which were superior to the comparison algorithm. The above results indicate that the intelligent scheduling model for micro‐grid based on the improved IPSO algorithm has good economy and stability. Compared with traditional energy dispatch methods, this energy dispatch mode has higher economic benefits and is of great significance for promoting the development of micro‐grid.

Design and Application of Vague Set Theory and Adaptive Grid Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm in Resource Scheduling Optimization.

The purpose of resource scheduling is to deal with all kinds of unexpected events that may occur in life, such as fire, traffic jam, earthquake and other emergencies, and the scheduling algorithm is one of the key factors affecting the intelligent scheduling system. In the traditional resource scheduling system, because of the slow decision-making, it is difficult to meet the needs of the actual situation, especially in the face of emergencies, the traditional resource scheduling methods have great disadvantages. In order to solve the above problems, this paper takes emergency resource scheduling, a prominent scheduling problem, as an example. Based on Vague set theory and adaptive grid particle swarm optimization algorithm, a multi-objective emergency resource scheduling model is constructed under different conditions. This model can not only integrate the advantages of Vague set theory in dealing with uncertain problems, but also retain the advantages of adaptive grid particle swarm optimization that can solve multi-objective optimization problems and can quickly converge. The research results show that compared with the traditional resource scheduling optimization algorithm, the emergency resource scheduling model has higher resolution accuracy, more reasonable resource allocation, higher efficiency and faster speed in dealing with emergency events than the traditional resource scheduling model. Compared with the conventional fuzzy theory emergency resource scheduling model, its handling speed has increased by more than 3.82 times.

The results confirm that the proposed ISS-AFLCSS can provide accurate guidance in practicing SS for managers of enterprises.

Research on Dynamic Scheduling Model of Plant Protection UAV Based on Levy Simulated Annealing Algorithm

The plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) scheduling model is of great significance to improve the operation income of UAV plant protection teams and ensure the quality of the operation. The simulated annealing algorithm (SA) is often used in the optimization solution of scheduling models, but the SA algorithm has the disadvantages of easily falling into local optimum and slow convergence speed. In addition, the current research on the UAV scheduling model for plant protection is mainly oriented to static scenarios. In the actual operation process, the UAV plant protection team often faces unexpected situations, such as new orders and changes in transfer path costs. The static model cannot adapt to such emergencies. In order to solve the above problems, this paper proposes to use the Levi distribution method to improve the simulated annealing algorithm, and it proposes a dynamic scheduling model driven by unexpected events, such as new orders and transfer path changes. Order sorting takes into account such factors as the UAV plant protection team’s operating income, order time window, and job urgency, and prioritizes job orders. In the aspect of order allocation and solution, this paper proposes a Levy annealing algorithm (Levy-SA) to solve the scheduling strategy of plant protection UAVs in order to solve the problem that the traditional SA is easy to fall into local optimum and the convergence speed is slow. This paper takes the plant protection operation scenario of “one spray and three defenses” for wheat in Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, as an example, to test the plant protection UAV scheduling model under the dynamic conditions of new orders and changes in transfer costs. The results show that the plant protection UAV dynamic scheduling model proposed in this paper can meet the needs of plant protection UAV scheduling operations in static and dynamic scenarios. Compared with SA and greedy best first search algorithm (GBFS), the proposed Levy-SA has better performance in static and dynamic programming scenarios. It has more advantages in terms of man-machine adjustment distance and total operation time. This research can provide a scientific basis for the dynamic scheduling and decision analysis of plant protection UAVs, and provide a reference for the development of an agricultural machinery intelligent scheduling system.

Post-COVID-19, the traditional cold product market is rapidly converting to retail stores and e-commerce portals owing to social distancing restrictions, which creates a requirement and opportunities for the development of cold chain logistics. However, urban governance requirements, such as pandemic prevention, traffic restriction, energy conservation, and emissions reduction, have added challenges to this development. Therefore, it is vital to design a cold chain logistics scheduling system that considers the economic, safety, and environmental factors. The proposed system includes three parts: (1) the framework structure of the cold chain logistics intelligent scheduling system; (2) a multi-objective scheduling optimization model to allow for efficient and dynamic coordination between the distribution, demand, and external environment; and (3) a two-stage optimization algorithm based on Dijkstra's algorithm and a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to support intelligent scheduling operations. Numerical experiments were conducted to analyze the performance of the proposed system and demonstrate its application. The results highlight that multi-objective tactical optimization in the IGSS-CCL is conducive to saving resources, protecting the environment, and promoting the sustainable development of cold chain logistics, which remains ahead of the traditional single-objective optimization method. Managers can use the suggested IGSS-CCL as a decision-support tool to control and supervise the scheduling operations of cold chain logistics.
