Detailed Description
In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantageous technical effects of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and do not limit the scope of the invention.
Fig. 1 illustrates an operational flowchart of a method for automatically adjusting an in-vehicle air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The following exemplary examples describe the process according to the invention in more detail.
The method comprises steps S1 to S3. In step S1, user information and environment information of the own vehicle are collected. In the current embodiment of the present invention, the user information includes, for example, user identity information, user location information, user physical sign information, and/or user air conditioner usage information, and the user information may be obtained by the user information collecting module 11. For example, the user identity information and the user location information (i.e., the location area of the user in the vehicle, including the main driving position, the assistant driving position, the left rear ranking and/or the right rear ranking) may be obtained by a camera in the vehicle through a face recognition technology. The user sign information comprises the heart rate of a user and/or the body surface temperature of the user, particularly the temperature of an exposed skin part, and can be acquired through a thermal infrared imager and/or a wearable device. The user air-conditioning usage information includes air-conditioning set temperature, air volume and/or wind direction of each air-conditioning outlet, and the like, and the wind direction of the air-conditioning outlet includes, for example, a transverse wind direction (herein, denoted as wind direction X) and/or a longitudinal wind direction (herein, denoted as wind direction Y) as shown in fig. 5. The air conditioner use information of the user in the process of manually adjusting the air conditioner by the user can be acquired through the vehicle-mounted air conditioner control panel.
The environmental information includes, for example, time information, vehicle position information, in-vehicle environmental information, and/or out-of-vehicle environmental information, which may be collected by the environmental information collection module 12. The vehicle position information, i.e., the vehicle position when the user manually adjusts the air conditioner, may be acquired, for example, by a positioning sensor, and at the same time, the time information when the user manually adjusts the air conditioner may be recorded. The in-vehicle environment information includes, for example, an in-vehicle temperature and/or an in-vehicle humidity, where, for example, the temperature of each region (including, for example, a main driver seat, a sub-driver seat, a left rear seat, and/or a right rear seat) inside the vehicle cabin may be acquired by an in-vehicle temperature sensor, and the humidity of each region inside the vehicle cabin may be acquired by an in-vehicle humidity sensor. As shown in fig. 6, the schematic outline of the exemplary vehicle according to the present invention, for example, the temperature of the primary driving seat obtained by the thermal infrared imager is labeled as temperature zone 1, the temperature of the secondary driving seat is labeled as temperature zone 2, the temperature of the right rear rank is labeled as temperature zone 3, and the temperature of the left rear rank is labeled as temperature zone 4. It should be noted that, here, only two rows of vehicle seats are shown by way of example, the reference numbers of the temperature ranges can be adjusted depending on the actual seating arrangement of the vehicle, for example, for a passenger vehicle with three rows of vehicle seats, the temperature ranges of the third left rear row and the third right rear row can be additionally marked, or for a passenger vehicle with only one row of vehicle seats, the temperature ranges of the zones of the main driving position and the temperature ranges of the secondary driving position can be marked.
Further, the off-board environment information includes, for example, an off-board temperature, an off-board humidity, an off-board wind speed, and/or an off-board illumination intensity. As shown in the outline diagram of the vehicle shown in fig. 6, for example, an outside temperature sensor 21, an outside illumination sensor 22 (which is integrated in the autopilot camera, for example), an outside wind speed sensor 23 (which is integrated in the antenna of the roof, for example), and/or an outside humidity sensor 24 are respectively arranged outside the vehicle, wherein, for example, the temperature of the environment outside the vehicle cabin can be acquired by the outside temperature sensor 21, the humidity of the environment outside the vehicle cabin can be acquired by the outside humidity sensor 24, the wind speed of the environment outside the vehicle cabin can be acquired by the outside wind speed sensor 23, and the illumination intensity of the environment outside the vehicle cabin can be acquired by the outside illumination sensor 22.
For example, the collected user information and environment information of the own vehicle may be stored in the form shown in table 1.

In step S2, the climate control model of the host vehicle is trained on the basis of the collected information, wherein the trained climate control models of other vehicles of the same type and region are used as initial models of the climate control model of the host vehicle. In the current embodiment of the present invention, when the on-vehicle air conditioner 32 of the own vehicle is initially used, since the air conditioning regulation model of the own vehicle has not learned the air conditioning usage habit of the user, the identity information of the user is not considered for the time being, and the trained air conditioning regulation models of other vehicles of the same type and the same region are directly adopted as the initial model of the air conditioning regulation model of the own vehicle. Here, trained air conditioning models of other vehicles of the same type and region can be obtained from the server 31 via the communication module 14 and stored in the control module 13 (e.g., electronic control unit) of the vehicle.
Here, an initial model of the climate adjustment model of the host vehicle may be trained by machine learning algorithms, including, for example, artificial neural networks, support vector machines, and/or random forests, based on the collected information. The control module 13 of the system 10 for automatically adjusting the vehicle air conditioner 32 can enable the air conditioner adjustment model of the vehicle to learn the air conditioner use habits of common users (including drivers and/or passengers) of the vehicle through the training and correspondingly modify the parameters of the air conditioner adjustment model of the vehicle.
In step S3, the on-board air conditioner 32 is automatically adjusted by the trained air conditioner adjustment model based on the current user information and environmental information. Here, it is possible to select an air conditioner adjustment model adapted to current user identity information based on the current user identity information, and use the current user information and environment information as input parameters of the selected air conditioner adjustment model, thereby outputting adjustment parameters matching with the air conditioner usage habits of the current user for automatically adjusting the in-vehicle air conditioner 32.
The output control parameters for controlling the vehicle air conditioner 32 are shown in table 2 by way of example. According to the schematic diagram of an exemplary air-conditioning outlet according to the invention shown in fig. 5, the outputted conditioning parameters include the outlet direction (i.e. the value of the transverse wind direction X and the value of the longitudinal wind direction Y) of the air-conditioning outlet 7 of the temperature area 1, the outlet air volume and the outlet temperature setting.

According to the present invention, the air conditioner can be automatically adjusted in accordance with the air conditioner use habit of the user without any operation of the user, driving comfort is improved, and the user is prevented from frequently manually adjusting the in-vehicle air conditioner 32 during driving.
Fig. 2 shows a work flow diagram of a method for automatically adjusting an in-vehicle air conditioner according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Only the differences from the embodiment shown in fig. 1 are set forth below, and the same steps are not repeated for the sake of brevity.
The method may further comprise steps S4 to S6. In step S4, during the operation of the automatic adjustment of the in-vehicle air conditioner 32, it is determined whether the user performs manual adjustment of the in-vehicle air conditioner 32. It is understood that when the adjustment parameters output by the air conditioning adjustment model do not completely match the current air conditioning usage habits of the user (for example, the user has symptoms of fever, carsickness and the like), or when the environmental information changes drastically (for example, the weather changes suddenly, the air conditioning adjustment model enters or exits a long tunnel and the like) and the air conditioning adjustment model does not respond timely enough, the user usually chooses to manually adjust the setting parameters of the vehicle air conditioner.
If the user performs the manual adjustment of the in-vehicle air conditioner 32, manual adjustment information of the in-vehicle air conditioner 32 by the user and user information and environment information when the manual adjustment is performed are recorded and the automatic adjustment operation mode of the in-vehicle air conditioner 32 is exited for a preset time period (e.g., 20 minutes) in step S5. In particular, a body surface temperature, an in-vehicle temperature and/or an in-vehicle humidity can be recorded when the user performs the manual adjustment. The user's rhythm of the heart can also be recorded under the condition that the user carries wearable equipment (for example intelligent bracelet, intelligent wrist-watch etc.), and it is used for judging whether the user appears symptoms such as carsickness.
In step S6, an air conditioning adjustment model of the own vehicle is trained and updated based on the recorded manual adjustment information, user information, and environmental information. By the method, the air conditioner adjusting model can be matched with the real requirements of the user more quickly and effectively, and the method is favorable for realizing the air conditioner adjusting strategy customized by the user.
Fig. 3 illustrates an operational flowchart of a method for automatically adjusting an in-vehicle air conditioner according to still another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Only the differences from the embodiment shown in fig. 1 are set forth below, and the description of the same steps is not repeated for the sake of brevity.
As shown in fig. 3, the step S2 may include S21 to S27. In step S21, the collected information is divided into a training data set and a testing data set according to a preset rule, wherein the training data set includes a verification data set. Here, the training data set is configured to train an air conditioning model of the own vehicle; the verification data set in the training data set is configured to further train the air-conditioning adjusting model of the vehicle and improve the accuracy of the output parameters of the air-conditioning adjusting model; the test data set is configured to evaluate an accuracy of a conditioning parameter output by the conditioning model of the air conditioner.
In step S22, the climate control model of the vehicle is trained based on the training data set, and the accuracy of the first adjustment parameter output by the trained climate control model is evaluated based on the test data set. In step S23, the trained climate conditioning model is further trained based on the validation data set, and the accuracy of the second conditioning parameter output by the further trained climate conditioning model is evaluated based on the test data set. In step S24, it is determined whether the difference between the accuracy of the first adjustment parameter and the accuracy of the second adjustment parameter is smaller than a preset threshold. If the difference between the accuracy of the first adjustment parameter and the accuracy of the second adjustment parameter is smaller than the preset threshold, which means that the improvement effect of the information corresponding to the verification data set on the accuracy of the output parameter of the air conditioning adjustment model is small, the collection of the information corresponding to the verification data set is stopped in step S25. Illustratively, the training data set includes, for example, an outside temperature, an inside temperature, and an outside illumination intensity, the verification data set includes the outside illumination intensity, and the outside illumination intensity mainly affects the outside temperature and the inside temperature, that is, there is a certain correlation between these three parameters. Because the temperature outside the vehicle and the temperature inside the vehicle are used as training parameter sets for training the air conditioner regulation model, the influence of the illumination intensity outside the vehicle as a verification data set on the accuracy of the output parameters of the air conditioner regulation model during further training of the air conditioner regulation model is small, and even overfitting of the training result of the air conditioner regulation model can be caused, so that the illumination intensity outside the vehicle can be stopped being collected by the illumination sensor outside the vehicle in the subsequent information collection process. It will be appreciated that the validation data sets may be selected according to different preset rules.
According to the alternative embodiment of the invention, when the collected data volume is large enough, the number of the vehicle-mounted sensors can be reduced through the cross validation of the data under the condition that certain accuracy of the output parameters of the air conditioner adjusting model is ensured, so that the cost is controlled to the maximum extent.
In addition, it should be noted that the sequence numbers of the steps described herein do not necessarily represent a sequential order, but merely one kind of reference numeral, and the order may be changed according to circumstances as long as the technical object of the present invention can be achieved.
Fig. 4 illustrates a block diagram of a system for automatically adjusting an in-vehicle air conditioner according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 4, the system 10 includes one or more of the following components: a user information collecting module 11 configured to collect user information, the user information collecting module 11 including, for example, a thermal infrared imager, a wearable device, an in-vehicle camera, and/or an in-vehicle air conditioner control panel; an environmental information collection module 12 configured to collect environmental information, the environmental information collection module 12 including, for example, an outside-vehicle temperature sensor, an outside-vehicle humidity sensor, an outside-vehicle wind speed sensor, an outside-vehicle illumination sensor, a positioning sensor, an inside-vehicle temperature sensor, and/or an inside-vehicle humidity sensor; a control module 13 configured to train an air conditioning model of the own vehicle based on the collected information and output a conditioning parameter for automatically conditioning an on-board air conditioner 32 disposed outside the system 10 through the trained air conditioning model based on current user information and environmental information; a communication module 14, through which the trained air-conditioning model of the other vehicles of the same type and region is obtained from the server 31 and/or the trained and/or updated air-conditioning model of the vehicle is uploaded to the server 31.
