• Abstract: Quality control and quality assurance are challenges in Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM). Intermittent machine diagnostics and downstream part inspections catch problems after undue cost has been incurred processing defective parts. In this paper we demonstrate two methodologies for in-process fault detection and part quality prediction that can be readily deployed on existing commercial DMLM systems with minimal hardware modification. Novel features were derived from the time series of common photodiode sensors along with standard machine control signals. A Bayesian approach attributes measurements to one of multiple process states and a least squares regression model predicts severity of certain material defects.

  A Digital Twin (DT) replicates objects, processes, or systems for real-time monitoring, simulation, and predictive maintenance. Recent advancements like Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized traditional AI systems and offer immense potential when combined with DT in industrial applications such as railway defect inspection. We introduce DefectTwin, which employs a multimodal and multi-model (M2) LLM-based AI pipeline to analyze both seen and unseen visual defects in railways.

  We propose a mechanism for calibrated detection transformers (Cal-DETR), particularly for Deformable-DETR, UP-DETR and DINO.

Results corroborate the effectiveness of Cal-DETR against the competing train-time methods in calibrating both in-domain and out-domain detections.

• Toward Enabling a Reliable Quality Monitoring System for Additive Manufacturing Process using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks [0.0]
  We propose an automated quality grading system for the Additive Manufacturing (AM) process using a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model. The CNN model is trained offline using the images of the internal and surface defects in the layer-by-layer deposition of materials and tested online by studying the performance of detecting and classifying the failure in AM process at different extruder speeds and temperatures. The proposed online model adds an automated, consistent, and non-contact quality control signal to the AM process that eliminates the manual inspection of parts after they are entirely built.
