Abstract: The deep integration of the coal industry and artificial intelligence (AI) is an important path for modern mines to achieve intelligent personnel reduction, cost reduction, and efficiency improvement. AI empowerment in the entire process and business application scenarios of the coal industry is a specific technical measure to achieve coal mine intelligence. In the context of the current development of intelligent coal mines, a basic paradigm for the evolution of primary intelligent coal mines to new generation intelligent coal mines has been proposed. The composition, functions, and technical connotations of primary intelligent coal mines and new generation intelligent coal mines have been compared and analyzed. It is pointed out the importance of AI empowerment technology for new generation intelligent coal mine and its two key applications and implementation: the coal mine industry mechanism AI model and the coal mine Industry internet platform. The paper summarizes the current research status of industrial mechanism AI models for complex operations such as coal mine geology, mining, excavation, and safety monitoring. The paper clarifies the rapid development trend of industrial mechanism AI analysis in intelligent coal mine construction. A new generation of intelligent coal mine multi-level cloud edge collaborative industrial Internet platform architecture is designed. Using industrial information software and hardware facilities such as group data center, mine data center, production system centralized control center, and combining the features of massive data cloud computing and small amount of data edge computing, a multi-level cloud edge collaborative mechanism of group cloud, mine cloud and link edge, scene edge is proposed. It is pointed out that further research directions in the future should continue to strengthen the development and software research of AI models for coal mining industry mechanisms. Gradually a knowledge software system empowered by AI throughout the entire process of coal mining will be formed. It is suggested to fully utilize the digital resources and information facilities of the coal mining industry Internet platform to gradually realize the AI technology support of the coal mining industry Internet platform.
