Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of laser cladding manufacturing, in particular to a spot size self-adaptive control method for laser cladding additive manufacturing. BACKGROUND

[0002] As one of the core technologies in the field of advanced manufacturing, laser cladding additive manufacturing technology has been widely used in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace, rail transportation and energy equipment, due to its unique advantages in complex component forming, high-performance material preparation and waste parts repair. This technology uses a laser beam as an energy source to make metal powder or wire rapidly melt on the surface of the substrate to form a molten pool, and then accumulates layer by layer according to the preset path to realize near-net forming of the component. In this process, the laser spot size, as a key parameter that directly affects the energy input density, its control accuracy directly determines the forming quality, microstructure performance and mechanical reliability of the cladding layer. If the spot size is too large, it will lead to a decrease in energy density, and problems such as poor bonding of the cladding layer, increased porosity and excessive surface roughness will occur. If the spot size is too small, it will cause local energy concentration, leading to excessive melting of the substrate, increased thermal deformation and even cracks and other defects. Therefore, dynamic and accurate control of the spot size is the core requirement to ensure the stability of the laser cladding additive manufacturing process and the consistency of product quality.

[0003] The current spot size control technology in the laser cladding additive manufacturing process still has many technical bottlenecks to be solved. Traditional spot control methods mostly use an open-loop control mode based on preset process parameters, that is, fixed spot parameters determined by preliminary experiments are used for full-process processing, which cannot cope with complex and variable dynamic interference factors in the cladding process. For example, in the multi-layer cladding process, the temperature gradient between the substrate and the cladding layer will continue to change with the increase of the layer number, causing significant fluctuations in the flowability and solidification rate of the molten pool. At the same time, factors such as fluctuations in the powder feed rate of metal powder, changes in the flow rate of protective gas and attenuation of laser energy will all cause deviations between the actual molten pool state and the preset process parameters, and then cause quality problems such as uneven cladding layer thickness and out-of-tolerance forming size, making it difficult to meet the manufacturing requirements of high-precision and high-performance components.

[0004] To break through the limitations of open-loop control, the industry has gradually developed closed-loop control technology based on real-time monitoring. By introducing visual sensors, infrared thermographs or spectral analyzers, etc. monitoring equipment, the molten pool image, temperature distribution or spectral information in the cladding process is collected, and the size of the light spot is dynamically adjusted based on traditional control algorithms (such as PID control, fuzzy control). However, such technology still has obvious shortcomings in monitoring dimension fusion, state representation accuracy and adjustment mechanism adaptability: existing monitoring systems are mostly limited to single-dimensional information acquisition, such as only acquiring molten pool morphology characteristics through visual sensors, or only monitoring molten pool temperature through infrared thermographs, without realizing the deep fusion of multi-dimensional information such as temperature gradient distribution, molten pool morphology characteristics and spectral characteristics, resulting in incomplete description of the dynamic state of the molten pool, and prone to state misjudgment; traditional control algorithms rely on manually designed empirical models, which are difficult to accurately model the nonlinear, strongly coupled characteristics and uncertain factors in the cladding process, and cannot realize the probabilistic representation of abnormal states, resulting in a lack of confidence support for control parameter output, and insufficient control accuracy and robustness; the existing adjustment mechanism mostly uses fixed threshold or linear adjustment strategy, which cannot adaptively generate adjustment thresholds according to the dynamic evolution trend of the cladding process, and is prone to adjustment lag or overshoot when the cladding working condition changes dramatically, making it difficult to ensure stable cladding quality throughout the process.

[0005] With the expansion of laser cladding additive manufacturing to large-scale complex components, multi-material composite forming and high-precision repair, higher requirements are put forward for the dynamic response speed, adaptive ability and intelligent level of the light spot control technology. The existing technology lacks the ability to deeply mine multi-dimensional spatiotemporal characteristics, accurately evaluate the state based on probability reasoning, and adaptively adjust based on dynamic evolution prediction, which cannot meet the technical needs of the above high-end application scenarios, becoming a key technical bottleneck restricting the development of laser cladding additive manufacturing technology to higher precision and higher reliability. Therefore, developing a laser cladding light spot size control method that can realize multi-dimensional information fusion, probabilistic state representation, dynamic trend prediction and adaptive threshold adjustment is of great significance for improving the stability of the laser cladding additive manufacturing process, product quality consistency and process adaptability, and promoting the widespread application of the technology in high-end manufacturing.

[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0045] The spot size adaptive control method for laser cladding additive manufacturing first performs multi-dimensional fusion processing on the real-time monitoring data collected during the laser cladding process to generate a spatiotemporal feature tensor containing temperature gradient distribution, molten pool morphology features and spectral feature information. The fusion of such multi-dimensional information can fully capture the dynamic changes of the molten pool, and compared with the traditional monitoring method which only relies on a single parameter, it can more accurately reflect the real state of the molten pool during the cladding process, avoid the problem of inaccurate molten pool state judgment caused by one-sided information, and provide a more reliable basis for subsequent spot regulation.

[0046] The spatiotemporal feature tensor is input into a deep probabilistic inference model to probabilistically represent the abnormal state in the cladding process and output a light spot regulation parameter vector with confidence, the model can predict and quantitatively analyze the abnormal state that may occur in the cladding process, and through probabilistic representation, the staff can clearly understand the possibility and degree of the abnormal state, and the regulation parameter vector with confidence provides a clear and valuable direction for light spot adjustment, avoiding the blindness of traditional regulation process due to the lack of quantitative basis, which helps to take effective control measures before or at the early stage of abnormal state, reducing the probability of defects.

[0052] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 The present application provides a laser cladding additive manufacturing light spot size adaptive control method, which integrates multi-source sensor data, deep learning and probabilistic inference technology to realize real-time dynamic adjustment of light spot parameters. The overall implementation scheme of the method includes the following steps: during the laser cladding process, real-time monitoring data is collected by high-speed cameras, infrared thermographs and spectrometers, etc. These data cover molten pool temperature, morphology and spectral information. First, the collected data are subjected to multi-dimensional fusion processing to generate a spatiotemporal feature tensor containing temperature gradient distribution, molten pool morphology characteristics and spectral feature information. This tensor can comprehensively reflect the dynamic behavior of the molten pool. Next, the spatiotemporal feature tensor is input into a deep probabilistic inference model. This model uses Bayesian networks and variational inference technology to probabilistically represent abnormal states during the cladding process and outputs a light spot regulation parameter vector with confidence, which includes parameters such as light spot size, power and scanning speed. Then, based on the light spot regulation parameter vector, a three-dimensional energy field distribution model is constructed. This model describes the distribution of energy in the processing area through radial basis function interpolation and spatiotemporal interpolation algorithms, and uses dynamic graph convolution networks to predict the propagation path and evolution trend of the energy field distribution, thereby identifying potential heat accumulation or defects in advance. Finally, an adaptive light spot adjustment mechanism based on a generative adversarial network is constructed according to the prediction results of the energy field distribution model. This mechanism generates multi-level light spot adjustment thresholds that change dynamically with the cladding process by training standard working condition generators and real-time state discriminators, thereby realizing automatic optimization of light spot size. The entire method ensures the stability and consistency of cladding quality through closed-loop control.

[0054] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 2The parallel data streams collected by high-speed cameras, infrared thermal imagers and spectrometers are coordinated, which naturally exist time stamp asynchronization and signal noise problems due to the differences in sensor physical characteristics and sampling mechanisms. An adaptive time warping algorithm is used to handle the time alignment challenge, which dynamically analyzes the time series characteristics of each data stream, maps sampling points of different frequencies to a common time axis by finding the optimal warping path, and considers the dynamic time warping distance between data points instead of simple linear interpolation, thereby eliminating the differences in sampling frequency while maximizing the preservation of the dynamic characteristics of the original signal. The synchronous noise filtering process adopts differentiated strategies for different types of sensor data. For thermal imager temperature data, a threshold denoising method based on wavelet transform is used to smooth random fluctuations. For high-speed camera image sequences, a median filter is used to suppress salt and pepper noise. For spectral signals, a moving average filter is used to eliminate high-frequency interference. Finally, the multi-dimensional monitoring data stream is obtained, which is strictly synchronized in time and has significantly improved signal-to-noise ratio.

[0055] The synchronized multi-dimensional monitoring data stream is immediately fed into a specially designed spatiotemporal feature extraction network for deep feature mining. The network architecture is designed as a dual-channel structure for parallel processing of spatial and temporal information. In the spatial dimension, three-dimensional convolution kernels are used to perform convolution operations on consecutive molten pool image sequences. These convolution kernels slide in three-dimensional body data to capture local spatial patterns of molten pool morphology, such as molten pool boundary profile, depression depth and surface ripple features. The time dimension channel is composed of long short-term memory network units. This network receives spatial feature sequences extracted from the three-dimensional convolution layer, remembers the long-term dependence of molten pool dynamic changes through its internal gating mechanism, and learns the evolution law of temperature gradient distribution and molten pool geometric shape over time, such as identifying abnormal patterns of rapid temperature rise accompanied by molten pool expansion. The output features of the spatial and temporal channels are spliced in the later stage of the network to form a preliminary spatiotemporal feature mapping. This mapping expresses the complete state information of the molten pool within a specific time window in the form of multiple layers of feature maps.

[0056] Although the preliminary spatiotemporal feature map contains rich information, there may be redundancy or weak correlation between features, so it is necessary to introduce a cross-attention mechanism to optimize the feature representation. The working principle of this mechanism is to let the features from different sources talk to each other to evaluate the correlation strength. Specifically, the mechanism regards the temperature features, the morphology features and the spectral features as query, key and value sequences respectively, and obtains a set of correlation weight matrices by calculating the dot product attention scores between the query and the key. These weights clearly indicate which features contribute more to the overall state at a specific cladding moment. According to the calculated dynamic weights, the preliminary feature map is weighted and fused. For example, when the temperature gradient is abnormally steep, the weight of the temperature feature will automatically increase, making it dominant in the fused feature. This dynamic weighting strategy ensures that the fused spatiotemporal feature representation can highlight key information while suppressing non-key interference.

[0057] Although the optimized spatiotemporal feature representation has been refined, its dimension is still high, which is not conducive to real-time processing. Therefore, a sparse encoder is needed to reduce the dimension for compression to generate a more compact tensor representation. The sparse encoder is trained by unsupervised learning to obtain an over-complete dictionary basis. The goal is to reconstruct the input feature with as few linear combinations of dictionary bases as possible. This process naturally introduces a sparsity constraint, so most coefficients are zero. In the encoding stage, the optimized high-dimensional spatiotemporal features are projected onto this dictionary, and a set of sparse coefficients is obtained by solving an optimization problem with an L1 regularization term. These coefficients constitute the low-dimensional spatiotemporal feature tensor. Although the final generated tensor has a significantly reduced dimension, it still retains the most discriminative temperature gradient distribution information, key geometric features of the molten pool morphology, and spectral feature information reflecting material composition changes in the original data due to the characteristics of sparse coding.

[0058] The delay from data acquisition to the generation of the final tensor is strictly controlled within a few milliseconds to meet the stringent requirements of real-time control. The size of the three-dimensional convolution kernel is set to 5x5x5 according to the typical size of the molten pool image to ensure that the receptive field can cover a meaningful spatial region. The number of hidden layer units of the long short-term memory network is set to 128 to balance the model capacity and computational efficiency. The cross-attention mechanism uses 8 parallel attention heads to enable the model to simultaneously focus on information from different representation subspaces. The dictionary size of the sparse encoder is determined experimentally to be 1000 atoms to achieve a good trade-off between reconstruction accuracy and computational complexity. All these parameters are optimized and determined based on the statistical analysis results of a large amount of historical cladding data. The parameters of various filtering algorithms and alignment algorithms in the data processing process have adaptive adjustment capabilities. For example, the size of the adaptive time warping window will dynamically change according to the stability of the real-time data stream, ensuring that the system can adapt to different processing conditions and material properties. This high degree of adaptability and robustness makes the fusion processing method widely applicable in actual industrial scenarios.

[0059] Example 2: refer to Figure 3 After the spatio-temporal feature tensor enters the deep probabilistic inference model, it first undergoes feature transformation to extract higher-level abstract representations. The deep feature transformation network consists of three fully connected layers, each containing batch normalization and ReLU activation operations. The first layer increases the dimension of the input tensor to 256 to expand the feature representation capacity. The second layer compresses the dimension to 128 to focus on key information. The third layer further compresses it to 64 to form a high-dimensional latent feature representation. This step-by-step dimension reduction strategy effectively removes redundant information while preserving main features. The high-dimensional latent feature representation not only contains the static properties of the molten pool but also encodes its dynamic change trends. The hybrid kernel density estimation model based on the high-dimensional latent feature representation uses multi-scale kernel functions to capture the complex nonlinear characteristics of the cladding process. The model combines Gaussian kernel functions for local smooth features, polynomial kernel functions for global trends, and Laplace kernel functions for sharp distributions. These kernel functions are linearly combined with adaptive weights that are dynamically adjusted according to the scale range of the feature values, allowing the model to respond to both rapid fluctuations and slow drifts. The Parzen window method is used to calculate the probability density of each feature point, with the feature point as the center to construct the probability density contribution. To quantify the uncertainty of the model, a variational Bayesian inference framework is introduced, which assumes that the latent features follow a Gaussian prior distribution and finds the variational distribution closest to the true posterior distribution through iterative optimization. During the inference process, the lower bound of the variation is calculated and the variational parameters are continuously optimized by the gradient ascent algorithm until convergence. The final probability feature distribution not only contains the mean estimate of each feature but also gives its confidence interval.

[0060] Anomaly detection mechanism based on statistical distance is adopted to screen the probability feature distribution to identify abnormal points deviating from the normal mode. The Mahalanobis distance between each feature point and the normal feature distribution is calculated and cross-validated with the KL divergence. The Mahalanobis distance is standardized by the feature covariance matrix, which can effectively eliminate the dimensional influence between features. A dynamic threshold is set to automatically mark abnormal feature points. The threshold size is updated every five minutes according to the statistical characteristics of the historical cladding data to adapt to the changes in process conditions. The marked abnormal points will trigger the recalculation of the light spot regulation parameter vector. The generated light spot regulation parameter vector contains the adjustment amount of laser power, scanning speed and spot diameter and their respective confidence, which is derived from the variance estimation of the variational Bayesian inference and mapped to the 0-1 interval through the sigmoid function. The final output parameter vector is stored in array form and attached with a timestamp to ensure synchronization with the control system.

[0061] When the light spot regulation parameter vector is mapped to the three-dimensional processing space coordinate system, an equal-interval grid division strategy is adopted. Each grid node corresponds to a spatial position and contains control information from the parameter vector. When constructing the initial energy field distribution model using the radial basis function interpolation method, the Gaussian function is selected as the basis function due to its good local approximation characteristics. The center point of the basis function is set at the grid node, and the shape parameter is determined through cross-validation. In the interpolation process, the energy value of each spatial point is obtained by weighted average of the parameter values of its adjacent nodes, and the weight is inversely proportional to the distance. The generated initial energy field can continuously and smoothly reflect the energy distribution profile of the entire processing area.

[0062] The time dimension information is introduced to modify the initial energy field to capture the dynamic evolution behavior of the energy field. The spatio-temporal interpolation algorithm uses time as the fourth dimension and constructs a four-dimensional interpolation function. This function uses radial basis interpolation in the spatial domain and linear interpolation in the time domain to balance the calculation efficiency and accuracy. By superimposing the energy field data of multiple consecutive time slices to form a four-dimensional hyper-volume data, the energy field value at each time point is calculated through spatio-temporal interpolation to obtain the time-varying energy field distribution model. This model can predict the energy accumulation at any spatial point in the future few seconds. The time-varying energy field distribution model is converted into a graph structure to input the dynamic graph convolution network for processing. The nodes of the graph are composed of discrete points in the processing space, and the edges are defined by the adjacency relationship between the nodes. The edge weights are set according to the physical law of energy transfer, such as inversely proportional to the square of the distance. The graph convolution network uses a graph attention mechanism to capture the nonlinear interaction between nodes. This mechanism calculates an attention coefficient for each edge to represent the strength of energy transfer. The attention coefficient is calculated by the similarity of node features and normalized by softmax. The skip connection is used between network layers to avoid gradient disappearance and maintain multi-scale features. The final output is an energy flow vector for each node.

[0063] The propagation path of the energy field is predicted by a gated recurrent unit network combined with historical energy distribution data. The network takes the sequence of energy fields of the past ten time steps as input and memorizes long-term dependencies through hidden states. The output is the prediction of the energy field for the next five time steps. The propagation path is visualized as a three-dimensional vector field, showing the direction and intensity of energy flow. The evolution trend is identified by calculating the divergence of the energy gradient field, which identifies areas of energy accumulation or dissipation. The entire prediction result is passed to the downstream spot adjustment module in a structured data format. The deep probabilistic inference model and the energy field prediction module run in parallel on an industrial computer, and each processing cycle does not exceed 50 milliseconds. The weights of the deep feature transformation network are fine-tuned every two hours with the latest data to maintain model adaptability. The kernel function parameters of the mixture kernel density estimation are recalibrated every ten minutes. The graph structure of the dynamic graph convolution network is updated every five seconds according to the real-time cladding path, and the hidden state of the gated recurrent unit network is reset after each processing layer to avoid cross-layer interference. These designs ensure that the system can continuously adapt to changing processing conditions. The energy field prediction result is output every 0.5 seconds and transmitted to the motion control card through a gigabit Ethernet network, achieving millisecond-level synchronization with the laser modulation signal to ensure real-time and accuracy of control.

[0064] In embodiment 3, a conditional generative adversarial network is trained to generate simulation data that meets the standard cladding characteristics, and a discriminator is used to extract key features. The training process starts with multi-scale feature extraction on historical standard cladding data to obtain hierarchical feature representations. The multi-scale feature extraction uses a convolutional pyramid network structure, which includes multiple parallel convolutional layers, each using different size convolutional kernels to capture cladding features from local details to global trends. For example, small size convolutional kernels focus on the microscopic morphology changes of the molten pool, while large size convolutional kernels identify the overall temperature distribution pattern. The extracted hierarchical features are then input into a deep convolutional generative network with conditional constraints. The generative network uses an encoder-decoder architecture, where the encoder part compresses the input features through convolutional layers and pooling layers, and the decoder part reconstructs the data through deconvolutional layers and up-sampling layers. The conditional constraints ensure the spatial continuity and physical reasonableness of the generated data by embedding the cladding process parameters such as laser power and scanning speed as additional input channels into the network.

[0065] The goal of the generative network is to output simulated cladding feature data that is consistent with the distribution of real standard data. In the adversarial training process, the generator and the discriminator are optimized alternately. The generator tries to generate data that is difficult to distinguish from real data, while the discriminator tries to distinguish real data from generated data. This game balances through minimizing the adversarial loss function, which is expressed as:

[0066] ;

[0067] Where: symbol This represents the overall loss value of the generative adversarial network. Represents the expectation operator, From the distribution of real data Samples sampled from the middle, The discriminator function outputs a scalar representing the probability that the input is the true data. From the distribution of potential noise Random vectors sampled from the middle, The generator function maps noise into the data space. Training uses the gradient descent algorithm to iteratively update the network parameters until the generated data is indistinguishable from real data in the feature space.

[0068] When constructing the deep convolutional discriminator network, emphasis is placed on its ability to capture multi-scale energy distribution features. The network design includes multiple sets of convolutional layers with kernel sizes such as 3x3, 5x5, and 7x7 to process input data within different receptive fields. Smaller kernels capture local gradient changes in the energy field, while larger kernels perceive global distribution trends. Activation functions and batch normalization layers follow the convolutional layers to enhance non-linear representation and training stability. The output feature maps are fed into a feature pyramid network for multi-level feature fusion. The feature pyramid integrates low-resolution high-level semantic features with high-resolution low-level detail features through a top-down path and lateral connections, thereby generating a unified multi-scale feature representation. A dynamic weight adjustment mechanism is introduced during discriminator training. This mechanism automatically adjusts the learning rates of both the generator and discriminator based on their current loss ratio. For example, when the discriminator's accuracy is too high, its weight is reduced to prevent generator training from stalling. The weight adjustment follows a dynamic update rule, with values ​​calculated for each batch to ensure balance during training.

[0069] An adaptive clustering algorithm is employed to divide the discriminator's output into multiple levels to generate a dynamic set of light spot adjustment thresholds. Based on the density peak detection principle, the clustering algorithm automatically determines the number of natural categories in the data. Density peaks are identified by calculating the local density of each data point and the minimum distance to high-density points. Local density is calculated using truncated kernel density estimation, while the minimum distance identifies the nearest high-density point. The similarity measurement method is adjusted according to the dynamic characteristics of the energy field; for example, Euclidean distance is used in energy accumulation regions to emphasize numerical differences, while cosine similarity is used in energy diffusion regions to focus on directional consistency. The clustering process is iteratively optimized, recalculating cluster centers and data point membership degrees in each iteration until the objective function converges. The final threshold set includes multiple levels such as normal, warning, and abnormal states, each corresponding to a light spot adjustment range. The threshold boundaries are defined by the statistical characteristics of the cluster centers, such as the mean and standard deviation.

[0070] The historical standard cladding data from the database contains thousands of standard processing cases, each case has complete sensor records, and the network parameters of multi-scale feature extraction are determined by cross-validation. The number of convolution kernels is set to 32, 64, and 128 corresponding to different scales. The training of the generative adversarial network uses the Adam optimizer with a learning rate of 0.0001 and a batch size of 32. The training period is at least 1000 rounds. The multi-scale convolution output of the discriminator is compressed into a feature vector through a global average pooling layer and then input into a fully connected layer for classification. The density calculation window size of the adaptive clustering algorithm is dynamically adjusted according to the data dimension, and the upper limit of the iteration number is set to 100 to ensure algorithm convergence. The generated threshold set is stored in the form of a query table for real-time comparison. When the mechanism is running, energy field prediction data is received every 0.1 seconds and spot adjustment suggestions are output. These suggestions are transmitted to the laser controller through a digital interface to realize closed-loop control.

[0071] The standard working condition generator of the conditional generative adversarial network is specifically implemented by an encoder part composed of four convolutional layers, each followed by a LeakyReLU activation function and a max pooling layer, and a decoder part composed of four deconvolutional layers, each followed by a ReLU activation function and an up-sampling layer. The conditional input is combined with the noise vector through splicing and then input into the generation network. The discriminator network adopts a five-layer convolutional structure with the number of convolution kernels increasing from 16 to 128. The feature pyramid network includes three levels corresponding to input sizes of 1 / 4, 1 / 2, and the original scale feature map. When the feature maps are fused, a 1x1 convolution is used to adjust the number of channels. Dynamic weight adjustment is based on loss ratio calculation. When the discriminator loss is lower than a certain proportion of the generator loss, the weight coefficient decreases. In the density peak detection of the clustering algorithm, the local density calculation uses a Gaussian kernel function with a bandwidth parameter that is adaptively selected through the nearest neighbor distance. After threshold division, each clustering category is assigned a state label and its boundary value is calculated. The boundary is determined by the percentile of the data points within the category, for example, the normal state takes 5% to 95% percentile, and the warning state takes the data outside the boundary. When the system is integrated, all components are deployed on an industrial computer, and CUDA is used to accelerate the training and inference process. The data flow uses pipeline processing to ensure real-time performance delay control within 50 milliseconds.

[0072] Example 4: Take a specific laser cladding repair of the turbine blade edge as an example, in this case the processing material is cobalt-based alloy powder and the substrate is 13Cr4Ni stainless steel. The design of the deep convolutional discriminator network needs to process the time-varying energy field distribution data from the previous module, which presents each data point containing spatial coordinates (X, Y, Z) and energy intensity value (E) in the form of a three-dimensional matrix. The size of the network input layer needs to adapt to the spatial dimension of the energy field data, for example, 50x50x20 grid points. When constructing the multi-scale convolution kernel structure, the first group of convolution kernels adopts a small size kernel of 3x3x3 with a step size of 1 and a padding of 1, which is specifically used to capture the local gradient changes between adjacent grid points in the energy field, such as small fluctuations in energy intensity. The second group of convolution kernels adopts a medium size kernel of 5x5x5 with a step size of 2 and a padding of 2, which is used to identify the energy distribution patterns in a larger area, such as hot spot areas formed by energy accumulation. The third group of convolution kernels adopts a large size kernel of 7x7x7 with a step size of 3 and a padding of 3, which aims to perceive the global energy distribution trend of the entire processing area, such as the overall symmetry of the energy field. After each group of convolution layers, a LeakyReLU activation function is connected with a negative slope parameter of 0.01, and a 3D batch normalization layer is connected to stabilize the training process. The multi-scale feature maps output by the convolution operation are concatenated in the channel dimension to form a comprehensive feature cube.

[0073] When the feature pyramid network is used to fuse these multi-level feature representations, the network constructs two paths from top to bottom and horizontal connection, the top-down path gradually upsamples the high-level low-resolution feature maps to the original input size through 3D deconvolution operation, and the horizontal connection element-wise adds the upsampled features to the same scale high-resolution feature maps from the convolution layer. The fusion process is divided into three levels, the feature map size after the first level fusion is 25x25x10, the second level is 12x12x5, and the third level is 6x6x3. After each fusion level, a 1x1 convolution kernel is used to adjust the number of channels to reduce the amount of calculation. The introduced dynamic weight adjustment mechanism updates the network weight in real time according to the loss value ratio of the generator and the discriminator, this mechanism calculates the ratio of the generator loss and the discriminator loss after each training batch, and automatically reduces the learning rate of the discriminator when the ratio exceeds the set threshold. The weight update formula is based on the exponential moving average to calculate the new weight to avoid sharp fluctuations, and the weight coefficient initial value is set to 0.5 and dynamically adjusted according to the training stability.

[0074] The adaptive clustering algorithm processes the energy field feature vectors extracted by the discriminator network, each feature vector corresponds to an energy field state at a processing time and its dimension is 256. The algorithm first automatically determines the number of cluster centers based on density peak detection, calculates the local density of each feature vector The value is calculated using a Gaussian kernel function, which depends on the distance between the vector and its neighboring vectors, and the distance between each vector and the nearest vector with higher density Vectors with higher local density and larger distance are selected as cluster centers, which is assisted by decision map visualization. Operators can observe the distribution of Similarity measurement is adjusted according to the dynamic characteristics of energy field. Mahalanobis distance is used in areas with dramatic energy changes to consider the covariance structure of features, and Euclidean distance is used in areas with smooth energy distribution to simplify calculations. Multi-level threshold boundary division is determined by iterative optimization. The iterative process uses the K-medoids algorithm to reselect center points and assign data points each iteration until the objective function converges. After clustering, each cluster is assigned a state label and its boundary value is calculated to form a set of dynamic spot adjustment thresholds. Referring to Table 1, the intermediate results obtained by the discriminator network when repairing the specific position of the front edge of the water turbine blade are shown. The results are used for subsequent threshold division:

[0075] Table 1: Energy field feature vector clustering analysis

[0076]

[0077] The batch size during network training is set to 16, the training period is 500 rounds, the initial learning rate is 0.001, and the cosine annealing strategy is used for gradual decay. The number of channels for multi-scale convolution kernels is configured as 32 channels for small scale, 64 channels for medium scale, and 128 channels for large scale. The fusion operation of the feature pyramid network uses bilinear interpolation for upsampling. The threshold value of dynamic weight adjustment is set to 1.5. When the loss ratio exceeds this value, the discriminator learning rate is multiplied by a decay factor of 0.8. The iteration stop condition for the adaptive clustering algorithm is set to three consecutive iterations with a cluster center change of less than 0.001. The entire system runs in the case of processing water turbine blades, completing a complete discrimination and clustering analysis cycle every 0.2 seconds. The generated threshold set is dynamically updated at a frequency of once per second to adapt to changes in processing conditions.

[0078] ​The forward propagation calculation of the deep convolutional discriminator network takes about 15 milliseconds, and the execution time of the adaptive clustering algorithm is about 10 milliseconds. The entire processing chain is completed within 50 milliseconds, meeting the real-time control requirements. The initial value of the network parameters is He normal initialization method, and the training data comes from 200 historical processing cases of water turbine blade repair, each case containing energy field records of 1000 consecutive time points. The cutoff distance dc in the density calculation of the clustering algorithm is automatically determined by analyzing the statistical distribution of the distance between all feature vectors, usually taking the 2nd percentile of the distance distribution. After threshold boundary division, the boundary of each cluster is determined by the covariance matrix of the feature vectors in the cluster. The normal state corresponds to the region with Mahalanobis distance less than 2.5, the warning state corresponds to the region with Mahalanobis distance between 2.5 and 3.5, and the abnormal state corresponds to the region with Mahalanobis distance greater than 3.5. These thresholds are recalculated continuously as the processing proceeds to achieve true adaptive adjustment.

[0079] In example 5, a laser cladding system for repairing turbine blades of an aero-engine is taken as a specific scenario, and the repair material is a nickel-based high-temperature alloy powder, and the substrate is a directional solidification nickel-based high-temperature alloy. The real-time cladding feature data comes from the multi-dimensional feature vector output by the previous module, which is updated every 100 milliseconds and contains 12 dimensional features such as temperature gradient, molten pool area, and spectral intensity ratio. The threshold set comes from the three-level dynamic thresholds generated in example 4, corresponding to normal, warning and abnormal states respectively. When calculating the multi-dimensional distance measure of real-time features and thresholds, the system calculates three different types of distances in parallel. Euclidean distance is used to quantify the straight-line deviation of feature vectors and each threshold cluster center point in the numerical space, which involves the sum of squared differences of all feature dimensions and then taking the square root. Its sensitivity to abnormal dimensions is lower than that of Euclidean distance, and it is more suitable for industrial environments with noise interference. Cosine distance focuses on the consistency of the direction of the feature vector, and evaluates the similarity of the change trend by calculating the cosine value of the vector angle. When the vector length changes greatly but the direction is consistent, the distance remains small.

[0080] The confidence of each feature dimension in the weighted distance evaluation according to the feature confidence is from the variance estimate value output by the deep probabilistic inference model, and the confidence value ranges from 0 to 1. The higher the value, the higher the reliability of the dimension feature. The weighted process assigns a basic weight coefficient to each distance metric, where the Euclidean distance weight is set to 0.5, the Manhattan distance weight is 0.3, and the cosine distance weight is 0.2. These weights are multiplied by the confidence values of each feature dimension to obtain the final weighted weight. For example, when the confidence of the temperature gradient feature is low, its weight in all distance calculations will be correspondingly reduced, avoiding the excessive influence of low-quality data on the overall evaluation. The weighted distance evaluation result is combined linearly to form a comprehensive deviation score, which is mapped to a 0-100 scale for intuitive judgment of the deviation degree of the current state from the threshold.

[0081] The process of generating control parameter adjustment instructions based on the evaluation result relies on a self-learning fuzzy rule base, which initially contains 20 fuzzy rules defined by domain experts. Each rule is in the form of "if the deviation score is A and the confidence is B, then the adjustment action is C". The weight parameters in the rule base are dynamically updated through a reinforcement learning mechanism. After the system completes a processing cycle, the rules used during the period are adjusted based on the final cladding quality evaluation results. The quality evaluation is based on porosity, crack number and other indicators completed by metallographic detection. The designed multi-input fuzzy inference system receives two input variables, deviation score and average confidence level. Each input variable is divided into three fuzzy sets: deviation score is divided into "low, medium, high", and confidence is divided into "weak, medium, strong". The output variable spot adjustment amount is divided into three fuzzy sets: "reduce, maintain, increase". The inference process uses the Mamdani fuzzy model and uses the MIN-MAX inference method to calculate the activation strength of each rule. The outputs of all activated rules are aggregated to form a fuzzy output set.

[0082] When the fuzzy output is converted into precise control instruction by defuzzification, the gravity method is used to calculate the position of the fuzzy set centroid, the output universe of discourse is discretized into 100 levels, the membership degree value of each level is calculated, and then the weighted average value of all level points and their membership degrees is calculated to obtain the precise spot diameter adjustment amount. Then, the adjustment instruction is sent to the laser control system at a millisecond level interval. The instruction contains the spot size, laser power and scanning speed adjustment amount. These parameters are converted into voltage signals by a digital analog converter to drive the laser optical components and motion mechanism. The system runs in real time in the repair of turbine blade tip. When the comprehensive deviation score of the feature vector and the normal state threshold is detected to be more than 25, the adjustment mechanism is automatically triggered to ensure that the cladding layer quality meets the aviation engine maintenance standard. The update period of the self-learning fuzzy rule base is synchronized with the repair period of each turbine blade, usually updated once after completing one blade. The rule weight adjustment uses the Q-learning algorithm with a learning rate of 0.1 and a discount factor of 0.9. The membership function of the multi-input fuzzy reasoning system uses a triangular function, the parameters of which are obtained by training historical data. The universe of discourse of the input variable deviation score is set to 0-100, the confidence interval is 0-1, and the output variable adjustment amount is -10% to +10%. The defuzzification process is executed every 50 milliseconds to ensure the timeliness of the control instruction. The whole system is deployed on a real-time operating machine and communicates with the laser processing equipment through the Ethernet CAT protocol.
