Abstract: A novel bare-bones particle swarm optimization (BBPSO) algorithm is proposed to realize intelligent mine ventilation decision-making and overcome the problems of low precision, low speed, and difficulty in converging on an optimal global solution. The proposed method determines the decision objective function based on the minimal power consumption and maximal air demand. Three penalty terms, namely, dynamic ventilation condition, the supplied air volume at the location where the air is required, and roadway wind speed, are established. The particle construction method of “wind resistance” instead of “wind resistance & air volume” is proposed to reduce the calculation dimension effectively. Three optimization strategies, namely the contraction factor, optimal initial value, and elastic mirror image, are proposed to avoid premature convergence of the algorithm. The application flow of intelligent decision-making in the field and the parallel computing architecture are also discussed. Five methods are used to solve the problems. The results reveal that the improved parallel BBPSO algorithm (BBPSO-Para-Improved) outperforms other algorithms in terms of convergence efficiency, convergence time, and global optimization performance and meets the requirements of large ventilation systems for achieving economic and safety targets.
