Detailed Description
Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and thus a repetitive description thereof will be omitted.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a robot scheduling method, which includes the following steps:
s110, the server acquires tasks to be distributed, and extracts a first capability set from the tasks to be distributed according to a preset standard capability library. Specifically, cloud systems such as a server and the like decompose multi-mode task input into a capability requirement set, namely a first capability set, by means of technologies such as natural language processing, semantic recognition and the like and a preset standard capability library.
The standard capability library is preset as a standardized capability set. When the step is implemented, the capacity of the task to be allocated can be extracted first, and then standardized processing is carried out by means of a preset standard capacity library, so that a first capacity set is obtained. The first capability set can also be formed by directly extracting and obtaining standardized capability according to a preset standard capability library and combining the standardized capability. This step may be implemented using prior art techniques, and is not described in detail herein.
The preset standard capability library divides all capabilities into two sets of static and dynamic capabilities. Static capabilities may include capabilities such as voice capabilities, visual capabilities, mobility capabilities, gripping capabilities, and the like. Dynamic capabilities may include capabilities such as real-time location, real-time power, etc. Therefore, after extraction, the first set of capabilities comprises a first subset of static capabilities and a first subset of dynamic capabilities.
And S120, the capability gateway receives the function sets sent by the robots when the robots are accessed, converts the function sets into second capability sets according to the preset standard capability library, and sends the second capability sets to the server. In the step, after receiving the function set corresponding to the robot, the capability gateway performs a function test on all the function sets before converting the function set, and only after the test passes, the capability gateway converts the function into standard capability, thereby forming a second capability set.
As shown in fig. 2, in an embodiment of the present application, step S120 may include:
s121, the capability gateway receives the function sets sent by the robots when the robots are accessed, and generates capability test requirements according to the function sets.
And S122, the capability gateway sends the capability test requirement to the control gateway.
And S123, controlling all robots to perform capability test by the control gateway according to the capability test requirements.
S124, the robot sends the test result to the control gateway.
S125, the control gateway forwards the test result to the capability gateway.
And S126, the capability gateway converts the test result into a test passing function, converts the test result into standard capability according to a preset standard capability library, and combines the standard capability to form a second capability set.
Therefore, after the conversion, the second set of capabilities includes a second subset of static capabilities and a second subset of dynamic capabilities.
And S130, the server obtains the target robot matched with the task to be allocated according to the first capability set and the second capability set. It should be noted that, the specific capability matching implementation process is not limited in this application, and those skilled in the art may set the implementation process as required. For example, in the present embodiment, the step S130 includes:
s131, the server performs first round matching according to the first static capacity subset and the second static capacity subset, and at least one alternative robot is obtained.
And S132, the server obtains the target robot from the alternative robots according to the first dynamic capacity subset and the second dynamic capacity subset.
Specifically, in step S130 of this embodiment, two rounds of matching are required, and the second round of matching is to perform the screening again based on the result obtained by the first round of matching screening. Thus, the robot matching result can be more accurate. When the matching in step S131, the number of static capabilities in the first static capability subset included in the second static capability subset corresponding to each robot is greater than the first preset threshold, which may be used as an alternative robot. The implementation of step S132 may be based on similar principles.
In this embodiment, each of the first static capability subset and the second static capability subset includes a plurality of sets of value pairs, where each set of value pairs includes a capability name and a corresponding capability value stored in a pair. For example, the movement capability and the corresponding movement speed form a set of numerical pairs. The step S131 includes:
s1311, the server matches the capability names in the first subset of static capabilities with the capability names in the second subset of static capabilities. and
S1312, after the capability names are matched, the server matches the capability values in the first subset of static capabilities with the capability values in the second subset of static capabilities.
Specifically, that is, step S131 of the present embodiment matches not only the capability name but also the capability value when matching the static capability. For example, a task requires not only a robot to have a movement capability, but also a movement speed greater than a second preset threshold, and two matches of a static capability are required. Thus, the robot matching result can be more accurate.
And S140, the control gateway sends a control instruction to the target robot so as to control the target robot to execute the task to be allocated.
Specifically, an instruction set may be generated according to a first capability set corresponding to a task to be allocated, and the control gateway issues a control instruction to the target robot according to the instruction set. And the target robot executes the task to be allocated according to the control instruction and feeds back an execution result to the control gateway.
As shown in fig. 3, in another embodiment of the present application, another robot scheduling method is disclosed. The method, based on the above embodiment, further includes the step of, based on the step S131, step S130:
s133, after obtaining the candidate robot, the server sends the list of candidate robots to the control gateway.
S134, the control gateway sends a dynamic capability update request to all the alternative robots.
And S135, after the alternative robot receives the dynamic capacity update request, updating the second dynamic capacity subset, and sending the updated second dynamic capacity subset to a control gateway.
And S136, the control gateway sends the updated second dynamic capacity subset to the capacity gateway.
And S137, the capability gateway sends the updated second dynamic capability subset to the server.
And S138, the server obtains the target robot from the alternative robots according to the first dynamic capacity subset and the updated second dynamic capacity subset.
Therefore, the dynamic capacity can be kept up to date, so that the matching result between the dynamic capacity of the task and the dynamic capacity of the robot is more accurate, and the method is favorable for accurately and comprehensively scheduling large-scale robot groups.
As shown in fig. 4, in another embodiment of the present application, another robot scheduling method is disclosed. Based on the above embodiment, step S130 includes:
s1301, the server calculates the matching degree of each robot and the tasks to be allocated according to the first capability set and the second capability set, and forms an alternative robot group based on N robots with the highest matching degree.
S1302, the server takes a robot with the highest matching degree in the alternative robot group as a target robot.
The robot scheduling method provided by the embodiment further comprises the following steps:
and S150, the target robot sends a task execution result to the control gateway. The task execution results are success or failure. and
And S160, when the task execution result is failure, the control gateway sends a control instruction to the robot with the highest matching degree remaining in the alternative robot group so as to control the robot to execute the task to be allocated.
Specifically, in the matching process in step S1301, the first N robots are used as the candidate robot groups in the order of the matching degree from high to low, that is, from high to low. For example, the top 3 robots in the order form an alternative robot group.
In the subsequent steps, the first robot in the first order is firstly assigned to execute the task, and when the execution of the task of the robot fails, the second alternative robot in the second order is assigned to execute the task again. Similarly, when the robot of the second position fails to execute, the candidate robot of the third position of the matching degree sequence is allowed to execute the task again.
In another embodiment of the present application, another robot scheduling method is disclosed. Based on the above embodiment, the method in step S130 includes:
and S1303, the server calculates the matching degree of each robot and the tasks to be allocated according to the first capability set and the second capability set, and when the robot with the maximum matching degree is a plurality of robots, the server acquires the history execution task information of each robot.
S1304, the server converts the historical execution task information into a third capability set according to the preset standard capability library.
And S1305, the server matches the third capability set with the second capability set to obtain a third capability set with the highest matching degree with the second capability set, and the robot corresponding to the third capability set is taken as a target robot.
Specifically, in the matching process, the order is sorted according to the order of the matching degree from high to low, that is, from high to low, and when there are a plurality of robots having the maximum matching degree and the same value, for example, after the matching degree is sorted, the maximum matching degree is 0.8, and the matching degree is 0.8 for the plurality of robots having the maximum value, then the history execution task information of each of the plurality of robots having the value of 0.8 is acquired.
The matching process in step S1305 may be implemented by referring to the matching process of the first capability set and the second capability set, and in this embodiment, matching is performed according to the historical execution task information of the robot, so that it is beneficial to ensure that the matching result is more accurate, and thus, it is beneficial to accurately and comprehensively scheduling large-scale robot groups; and is beneficial to improving the success rate of task execution.
In another embodiment of the present application, another robot scheduling method is disclosed. Based on the above embodiment, the method in step S130 includes:
s1306, acquiring first position information corresponding to the task to be allocated from the first capability set, acquiring first task remaining time, first moving speed and second position information corresponding to the first robot from a second capability set corresponding to the first robot, and acquiring second task remaining time, second moving speed and third position information corresponding to the second robot from a second capability set corresponding to the second robot.
S1307, based on the first position information, the first movement speed, and the second position information, acquiring a first movement time corresponding to the first robot.
S1308, based on the first position information, the second moving speed, and the third position information, a second moving time corresponding to the second robot is acquired. and
S1309, when the sum of the first movement time and the first task remaining time is smaller than the sum of the second movement time and the second task remaining time, in the matching sorting process, the sorting priority of the first robot is higher than the sorting priority of the second robot.
Specifically, in the matching process, the embodiment comprehensively considers the moving capability in the static capability and the real-time position information in the dynamic capability to perform comprehensive matching, so that the matching result is more accurate. For example, the second robot is in an idle state, the first robot is still executing the task, but the moving time of the second robot from the task position is still longer than the sum of the time consumed by the first robot to execute the rest task and the moving time of the first robot, then the first robot is preferentially assigned to execute the task, so that the matching is more accurate.
As shown in fig. 5, another embodiment of the present application discloses an execution process of a robot scheduling method. Wherein the capability pool and the capability adaptation module are located in a server, and the capability adaptation is an action performed by the server. The robot set is a set composed of a plurality of robots in the step S120. The robot sets send respective sets of functions into the capability gateway. The capability gateway performs capability access on the capability gateway by means of a preset standard capability library.
The present embodiment registers the second capability set formed by the function tested through step S126 of the above embodiment in the capability pool. In step S130, the server completes matching between the capabilities in the capability pool and the first capability set corresponding to the task to be allocated in the capability adaptation module. In step S110, the server decomposes the task to be allocated into a capability requirement set by means of a preset standard capability library, and sends the capability requirement set to the capability adaptation module. The rest of the steps of this embodiment may be implemented by referring to the same steps disclosed in the above embodiments, which are not repeated herein.
It should be noted that, the capability gateway and the control gateway disclosed in the present application may be independent gateway devices, or may be gateway devices provided in a server, which is not limited in this application.
It should be noted that, all the embodiments disclosed in the present application may be freely combined, and the technical solution obtained after combination is also within the protection scope of the present application.
