[0001] This invention belongs to the field of laser processing technology, specifically relating to a laser processing control method, system, equipment, and medium based on neural networks. Background Technology
[0002] Femtosecond laser ingot cutting is a technique that utilizes ultrashort pulse lasers (pulse widths in the femtosecond range, i.e., 10^66 seconds). −15 This technology (in seconds) is used to precisely process high-hardness crystalline ingot materials. Its core principle is to induce a nonlinear absorption effect inside the material through the high peak energy of an extremely short pulse, thereby achieving precise breaking of molecular bonds instead of thermal melting and thus avoiding thermal damage.
[0003] Problems with existing technology: Machining accuracy out-of-control problem Inaccurate energy deposition: Traditional laser processing relies on fixed parameters, which are difficult to adapt to differences in material microstructure (such as lattice defects and doping concentration fluctuations), leading to expansion of the heat-affected zone or uncontrollable microcracks; Lack of cross-scale tomography prediction: There is a lack of quantitative correlation models between laser parameters (such as spatiotemporal shaping), electron dynamics response (electron temperature / density distribution) and macroscopic results (cut morphology), and process development relies on trial and error; Efficiency and cost bottlenecks Long parameter tuning cycle: A single process optimization requires hundreds of experiments, especially in new materials (such as GaN and silicon carbide) which can take several months; Lack of dynamic disturbance compensation: Real-time disturbances such as environmental temperature and humidity fluctuations and optical system drift lack adaptive correction mechanisms, resulting in yield fluctuations of over ±15%.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] To make the objectives and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be specifically described below with reference to embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of the invention and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by the invention.
[0021] By actively controlling the shape (time and space) of femtosecond laser pulses, the electronic dynamics (EDC) inside the material can be modulated, thereby optimizing the micromachining results; by automatically adjusting the laser parameters through AI, a closed-loop control method and system combining physical models, real-time monitoring, and AI algorithms can be constructed. The laser processing control method based on neural networks specifically includes the following steps: I. Target Definition and Input The specific steps are as follows: (a) Setting processing targets: Specify processing requirements (e.g., specify the morphology required for crystal processing, microchannels with a specific aspect ratio, substrates with high SERS enhancement factor, nanowires with specific conductivity, taper-free micropores, high etching rate, etc.). (ii) Material property input: Input the known physical properties of the material to be processed (e.g., band structure, thermal conductivity, plasma frequency, etc.); (iii) Initial laser parameters: Input the initial laser parameter range (center wavelength, pulse width range, energy range, etc.).
[0022] II. Physical Model and Database: (a) Establishing a basic model library: Its core physical models include: (1) Electronic dynamics model: including non-equilibrium quantum dynamics simulation, carrier excitation and relaxation rate equation modeling, multi-band Keldysh theory for ionization rate prediction and non-perturbation processing method under strong optical field-matter coupling. This model is used to predict the electronic excitation and temperature change inside the material under different laser pulse shapes (energy distribution, time delay sub-pulse); (2) Molecular dynamics model: Classical molecular dynamics combines EAM or REBO potential functions and includes a reaction force field for phase transition and ablation processes. It also has phase transition criterion identification algorithms (based on local atomic coordination number, bond angle distribution, etc.) and thermodynamic path sampling techniques (such as Metadynamics). This model is used to predict phase transition (melting, ablation, resolidification) processes. (3) Plasma model: including two-fluid or multi-fluid models under the fluid dynamics framework, particle simulation methods, self-consistent electromagnetic field solvers, critical density surface tracking and shielding effect modeling. This model is used to predict possible ionization and plasma formation processes. (4) Dual-temperature model / improved model: including nonlocal thermal conduction correction, temperature-dependent electron-phonon coupling coefficient G(T), interface thermal resistance modeling in multilayer heterostructures, and implicit numerical solution scheme under time scale separation. This model is used to predict and describe the electron-lattice energy transfer process. The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Model Selection and Adaptation Based on the target material (such as semiconductor ingots like silicon, sapphire, and silicon carbide), select the appropriate theoretical level: for wide bandgap materials, use the improved Keldysh+TTM combination; for metals or highly conductive materials, prioritize full PIC simulation; for composite structures (such as multilayer films), introduce cross-scale coupling interfaces; establish a "material-model matching rule base" to automatically recommend the optimal model combination.
[0023] Step 2: Parameter Calibration and Verification Using known experimental data (such as pump-probe spectra, transient reflectance variation curves), the key parameter, electron specific heat capacity C, is retrieved. e Electronic thermal conductivity k e Electron-phonon coupling constant G and ionization threshold intensity I th Parameter fitting is performed using Bayesian inference or least squares optimization methods to ensure that the model prediction accuracy error is less than 10%.
[0024] Step 3: Multiphysics Coupled Simulation Process Input initial laser pulse shape (time-controlled) → Electron dynamics model: calculate electron excitation density and energy deposition profile → Dual-temperature model: solve for electron temperature Te(t) and lattice temperature Tl(t) → Molecular dynamics model: determine phase transition (melting / vaporization / recrystallization) → Plasma model: analyze free electron growth, shielding and reverse bremsstrahlung radiation loss → Output: spatially resolved energy deposition map, temperature evolution curve, phase transition region volume, and initial surface morphology.
[0025] Step 4: Model order reduction and acceleration To meet the real-time call requirements of the subsequent AI engine, the high-fidelity model undergoes the following processes: intrinsic solution space compression, surrogate model training, and output of a lightweight "black box" model, which can complete a forward prediction within milliseconds.
[0026] (ii) Establish a mapping database of "laser parameters-electron dynamics-processing results": Based on historical experimental data (such as the examples listed in the document) and model simulation results, construct an associated database; for example: specific spatiotemporal pulse shape-predicted electron temperature / density distribution-expected microchannel morphology / etching rate / SERS enhancement factor / nanowire properties, etc. The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: (1) Data acquisition and fusion technology: including automated experimental data acquisition system (high-speed camera, spectrometer, AFM / SEM image analysis), numerical simulation batch generation toolchain (Python + LAMMPS / PIC script), and multi-source heterogeneous data cleaning and normalization processing; (2) Feature engineering and representation learning: including laser pulse spatiotemporal coding (Zernike moments, wavelet packet decomposition, pulse fingerprint vector); extraction of quantitative indicators of processing results: edge roughness Ra, aspect ratio AR, SERS enhancement factor EF, nanowire orientation order S; and automatic extraction of latent variable representation using VAE or CNN. (3) Database architecture design: Use graph database to store causal relationships, such as: [laser pulse] → [peak electron temperature] → [melting depth] → [crack length]; use vector database to support semantic retrieval of similar cases; use distributed SQL / NoSQL hybrid architecture to ensure scalability; (4) Uncertainty modeling and confidence assessment: Bayesian neural network (BNN) is used to output the prediction interval; Monte Carlo Dropout is used to estimate the model confidence; and a "knowledge integrity index" is introduced to evaluate the credibility level of each record. The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Multimodal data generation mechanism Construct a closed-loop data production pipeline: First, standard laser parameter set → physical model simulation, historical experimental log → data preprocessing; then, generate virtual samples through model simulation and extract real samples from historical data; subsequently, store the virtual samples and real samples in a unified format in the laser-EDC-result mapping library. The test covers typical operating conditions, including different material types, thicknesses, doping concentrations, ambient atmospheres (vacuum / inert gas), and scanning speeds. It also introduces a perturbation test set, incorporating noise, drift, and abnormal events (such as focus shift) to enhance robustness and generalization capabilities.
[0027] Step 2: Dimensional unification and correlation modeling to solve the cross-scale discontinuity problem between laser parameters, microscopic processes and macroscopic results; Step 2.1: Input Encoding Temporal shaping: chirp, burst mode, sub-pulse delay Δt; Spatial shaping: vortex beam, Bessel beam, multifocal array; Encoded as a high-dimensional tensor P∈R T×X×Y ; Step 2.2: Intermediate State Characterization Maximum electron extraction temperature T e max Rise time τ rise Energy deposition gradient ∇E; Define "non-thermal damage factor" η=T e / T l As a criterion for cold ablation; Step 2.3: Output Quantization Geometric morphology: microgroove aspect ratio, bottom flatness, sidewall cone angle; Functional properties: Raman enhancement factor (SERS), carrier mobility improvement, optical transmittance variation; Defect indicators: microcrack density, recast layer thickness, stress concentration factor.
[0028] Step 3: Knowledge Graph Construction and Reasoning Support. This uses a graph structure to express complex causal chains. This structure supports: forward queries: "Which pulses can produce non-thermal ablation?"; and backward reasoning: "How to adjust parameters to enhance SERS by >10?". 5 "?"; Analogical recommendation: "What are some better results under similar conditions?"
[0029] Step 4: Dynamic Updates and Version Management Design an incremental learning mechanism: automatically trigger incremental index updates in the database after a new experiment or simulation is completed; use a version control system (Git-LFS + DVC) to track each change to ensure traceability; set an "active data window": prioritize retaining the best 5% of samples from the most recent N iterations and discard outdated and inefficient data.
[0030] The aforementioned collaborative mechanism and systemic significance of establishing the basic model library and mapping database are as follows: At the positive-driving collaborative level, the basic model provides the database with a large number of high-quality virtual samples, compensating for the high cost and long cycle of experiments; at the feedback-closed-loop collaborative level, the real experimental results in the database feed back into the model parameter correction, forming a spiral upward progression of "simulation-experiment-optimization"; at the AI readiness support collaborative level, the mapping database becomes the "prior knowledge pool" of the AI core engine, significantly reducing the exploration space of reinforcement learning; and at the cross-scale bridging collaborative level, the model explains microscopic mechanisms, while the database connects macroscopic performance, jointly supporting "explainable AI decision-making". Without an accurate physical model, AI is prone to falling into the "black box fitting" trap; without large-scale mapping data, the model cannot generalize to new scenarios, and both are indispensable.
[0031] III. AI Core Engine: (a) Machine learning / deep learning model: The model is trained to learn the complex nonlinear relationship between "laser parameters - material response (electron dynamics prediction) - final processing result"; input: processing target, material properties, current / candidate laser parameters (including complex spatiotemporal shaping parameters); output: predicted processing result (morphology, size, efficiency, quality index) and uncertainty estimate; The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: (1) Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN): used to process high-dimensional sensor data (such as high-speed imaging, spectral signals, acoustic emission signals) and extract spatial-temporal features; (2) Temporal modeling technology (LSTM / Transformer): captures the dynamic evolution process between laser pulse sequence and material response, suitable for online monitoring; (3) Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINN): Embed physical laws such as heat conduction equations and nonlinear optical equations into the model structure to improve generalization ability and interpretability; (4) Few-shot learning and transfer learning: to address the problem of scarce labeled data when switching between different materials (such as silicon, glass, GaN); (5) Multimodal fusion model: Integrates multi-source sensing information such as optical microscopic images, infrared thermograms, and vibration signals to construct a comprehensive state representation; The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Data Acquisition and Preprocessing: Laser parameters (pulse width, repetition frequency, power, scanning speed) and material response signals are acquired through high-speed CCD, spectrometer, AE sensor, etc., and then denoised, normalized and time-frequency transformed. Step 2: Feature Engineering and Tag Generation: Combining offline experiments and simulations (such as FDTD and finite element analysis), establish the mapping relationship between "process parameters → morphology of internal modified zone → fracture behavior" and generate training tags; Step 3: Model training and validation: The model is trained under multiple material and thickness conditions using a cross-validation strategy, and interpretability analysis is performed using SHAP values or Grad-CAM. Step 4: Online reasoning and feedback: Deployed on edge computing units, it predicts the quality risks of the current processing point (such as the probability of microcrack propagation) in real time and outputs early warning signals or adjustment suggestions.
[0032] (ii) Optimization algorithm: Based on the prediction model and the user-defined target (and possible constraints, such as maximum energy and minimum processing time), the optimal combination of laser parameters (center wavelength, pulse width, total energy, time-shaping sequence, spatial light modulator phase diagram, etc.) is searched using optimization algorithms (such as Bayesian optimization, evolutionary algorithm, reinforcement learning). The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: (1) Bayesian optimization: suitable for global optimization under low sampling budget, especially suitable for expensive experimental scenarios (high cost of each trial cut); (2) Reinforcement Learning (RL): The MDP framework is constructed with “environment = laser system + material”, “action = parameter adjustment”, and “reward = cutting quality − energy consumption” to achieve real-time adaptive control; (3) Multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (NSGA-II / MOEA / D): balances multiple conflicting objectives such as cutting speed, edge quality, and energy consumption, and generates Pareto front for decision-making; (4) Model Predictive Control (MPC): Combining a machine learning model as an internal predictor, the laser path and parameters for the next few steps are continuously optimized to suppress disturbances; (5) Online learning and adaptive correction mechanism: The surrogate model is continuously updated using newly collected data to prevent model drift; The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Initialize the search space: Set the initial parameter range based on experience or simulation (e.g., pulse energy 0.5–2 μJ, scan spacing 1–5 μm). Step 2: Iterative Exploration and Evaluation: Bayesian optimization uses a Gaussian process to model the uncertainty of the objective function and selects the next point with the largest information gain for experimentation; the reinforcement learning agent decides whether to increase the pulse density or adjust the focus position based on the current state (such as surface topography deviation); Step 3: Closed-loop execution and dynamic adjustment: MPC calls the prediction model every millisecond to calculate the optimal parameter sequence for the next 10 scan points; when a sudden change in material thickness is detected, the online fine-tuning mechanism is triggered to quickly converge to the new optimal solution; Step 4: Knowledge Accumulation and Transfer: Store the successfully optimized path in the process knowledge graph to support the rapid launch of new materials.
[0033] The two modules mentioned above do not operate in isolation, but are embedded in an intelligent control closed loop of "perception-decision-execution-feedback". Please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 2 ; This architecture achieves a leap from "passive control" to "active cognition," and has the following advantages: strong anti-interference: it can automatically compensate for batch differences in materials and changes in environmental temperature and humidity; shortened process development cycle: the process debugging that traditionally requires hundreds of trials can be converged by AI in less than 50 trials; edge intelligent deployment: it can run in real time on FPGA or industrial control computer through model compression (knowledge distillation, quantization).

(2) Constraint Satisfaction Engine: Introducing the Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) algorithm to adjust parameters while satisfying hardware limits (such as maximum laser power and scanning galvanometer acceleration); (3) Safety boundary constraint technology Real-time threshold monitoring: Integrating a database of material damage thresholds (e.g., the ablation threshold of silicon, 2.0 J / cm). 2 Automatically limits AI output parameters from exceeding safe limits; Redundancy check mechanism: By pre-simulating the execution results of instructions in Monte Carlo simulation, abnormal combinations that may damage optical components (such as ultra-high energy + minimum spot size) are intercepted. The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Parameter Reception and Parsing The AI engine outputs a structured parameter package (JSON format), and the instruction generation module parses the parameters and matches them with a preset hardware driver template. Step 2: Multi-device instruction collaborative generation The instruction generation logic of the spatial light modulator is to call the GPU-accelerated algorithm to generate a phase hologram, and output a 512×512 grayscale bitmap (8-bit depth); the instruction generation logic of the pulse shaper is to compile the time series into an AOM RF drive signal (time resolution 50fs, voltage accuracy ±0.1V); the instruction generation logic of the laser power supply is to calculate the energy-voltage mapping curve and generate a DAC control waveform (e.g., 1.8μJ → output voltage 124.7V ±0.5%). Step 3: Cross-system timing synchronization Construct a timing chain with nanosecond-level precision (based on the PTP protocol); timing jitter control <100ns to ensure precise matching of spatial-temporal parameters; Step 4: Virtual Execution Verification The digital twin platform simulates the effect of commands: it simulates the propagation path of light beams through ray tracing; it calls the physical model to predict the material response (such as peak electronic temperature and melting depth); if the prediction result deviates from the target by more than 5%, it automatically triggers the parameter rollback mechanism.

Real-time delay control: The sub-pulse interval is precisely adjusted (accuracy <10fs) using fiber optic delay lines or piezoelectric displacement stages to achieve active control of electron dynamics; (3) Beam spatial shaping technology Phase-type spatial light modulator (SLM): By loading Zernike polynomials or holograms, non-Gaussian distributions such as Bessel beams and vortex beams can be generated, and the focal size can be compressed to 70% of the diffraction limit; Multi-focal parallel processing: By using diffractive optical elements (DOE) to split the beam, more than 10 independent focal points can be controlled simultaneously to improve processing efficiency; (4) Multi-device collaborative control architecture Hardware synchronization interface: Adopting an FPGA + real-time Ethernet (EtherCAT) architecture, ensuring that the command synchronization deviation of the laser, galvanometer, and modulator is <100ns; Safety interlock mechanism: Integrated overcurrent / overtemperature sensor and emergency stop circuit, which can cut off laser output within 1ms in case of abnormality; The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Instruction parsing and distribution AI engine output parameter set → controller parses into device commands: Laser: Adjusts the pump current to the target energy value; Pulse shaper: Loads the corresponding phase mask; Spatial light modulator: Generates a Bessel beam to calculate a hologram (CGH); Step 2: Dynamic Compensation and Calibration Commands are executed using sensor feedback; please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 3 ; Step 3: Joint Execution of Spatiotemporal Parameters Timing control: The pulse shaper completes the loading of a new waveform within 50μs → the laser emits in sequence (e.g., BurstMode@500kHz); Spatial control: SLM refresh rate > 100Hz → galvanometer scans at a speed of 5m / s in coordination with focus movement; Step 4: Closed-loop verification and fault tolerance Real-time quality monitoring: The processing depth is detected by a confocal microscope probe, and parameter re-optimization is triggered when the deviation is >5%.

(3) Feedback control mechanism Adaptive PID controller: dynamically adjusts laser power and scanning speed based on monitoring data; Reinforcement learning (RL) agent: optimizes parameters online using processing quality scores (such as roughness and crack density) as the reward function; The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Data Acquisition and Feature Extraction Input: Real-time multimodal data stream of the laser-affected area (image, spectrum, acoustic signal, temperature); Processing flow: High-speed imaging, Raman spectroscopy, acoustic emission, thermal imaging → Feature extraction → Edge computing node → Anomaly detection model → Generation of status report; Outputs include quantitative indicators such as plasma density, molten pool size, and surface roughness Ra value. Step 2: State Diagnosis and Decision Generation Rule engine: Preset thresholds trigger alarms (e.g., forced power reduction when temperature > material melting point); AI prediction model: Predicts the final processing quality under current parameters based on historical data, and triggers adjustments if the prediction deviation > 10%; Step 3: Closed-loop control execution Command issued: Adjust laser energy: Adjust laser power supply voltage via DAC module; Correct optical path: Spatial light modulator (SLM) generates new phase map in real time to optimize beam spatial distribution; Dynamic response timing: Data acquisition to capture transient phenomena; edge computing to complete feature analysis and diagnosis; command execution to adjust laser parameters; Step 4: Knowledge Accumulation and Model Iteration Data from each processing cycle (parameters - monitoring results - final quality) is automatically stored in the mapping database; incremental training is triggered weekly to update AI model weights and optimize control strategies.
[0037] (ii) Result evaluation (optional): After processing, key indicators of the actual processing results are obtained by means of microscopic imaging (SEM, AFM), electrical testing, optical testing (such as SERS measurement).
[0038] (iii) Feedback loop: The monitored process signals (or final measurement results) are fed back to the AI engine. The AI engine compares this information with the expected target: if the result meets the expectation, the parameters are valid and can be stored in the database; if there is a deviation, the AI engine adjusts its prediction model or re-optimizes the parameters based on the new information and makes the next processing attempt (adaptive control). The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: (1) Edge computing and real-time analysis engine Streaming data processing architecture: Apache Kafka / Kinesis enables millisecond-level pipelined processing of sensor data; FPGA-accelerated parallel computing modules support real-time feature extraction (such as plasma area and temperature gradient).

The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Real-time Status Analysis and Quality Assessment Feature extraction: Spectral analysis: ablation depth was calculated using PLS regression (error < 5 μm); Image processing: Plasma region was segmented using U-Net, and plume symmetry index was calculated; Anomaly diagnosis: Compare with standard process window: If the width of the heat-affected zone is greater than the set threshold, trigger a level 3 alarm; Causal reasoning engine: Correlate energy fluctuations with the probability of crack formation (Bayesian network). Step 2: Dynamic parameter adjustment and execution Decision logic: For example, when the plasma asymmetry index is >0.7, adjust the SLM phase diagram to generate a Bessel beam; when the thermal gradient is >10^6 K / m, reduce the pulse energy by 20% and increase the pulse interval by 50 fs; at the same time, maintain the current parameters and update the reward function. Command issuance: Control commands are prioritized and scheduled by the real-time operating system (such as RT-Linux); SLM loads a new phase map (refresh rate 1kHz), AOM calibrates the energy; Phase 3: Closed-loop verification and knowledge accumulation Effect verification: Next scan point monitoring: verify the roughness improvement rate (e.g., from Ra 1.2μm→0.8μm); Post-processing in-situ inspection: verify the consistency of microgroove depth using confocal microscopy; Data closed loop: Successful cases are stored in the graph database: "Parameter Adjustment Strategy" and "Quality Improvement Indicators" are linked; Failed cases trigger physical model recalibration: update the electron-phonon coupling coefficient G(T).
[0039] VI. Iterative Learning and System Improvement: (i) Every successful (or even unsuccessful) processing attempt and its data will be used to update the AI model and physical model database; The specific technical requirements are analyzed as follows: (1) Incremental learning algorithm: The AI prediction model is updated in real time by using online learning models (such as Online Random Forest and incremental SVM); the new data features are mapped to the existing model by combining transfer learning to avoid repeated training; new data is quickly integrated on the basis of retaining historical knowledge to adapt to material batch differences or process changes; (2) Bayesian optimization of physical model parameters: Based on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling or variational inference, the physical model parameters are corrected by inversion using new processed data; the parameter uncertainty is quantified by Gaussian process regression (GPR) to guide subsequent experimental design; (3) Multi-source data fusion and knowledge distillation: Graph neural networks (GNN) are used to integrate experimental data, simulation results and sensor stream data (such as thermal imaging and spectral signals) to construct a unified feature space; knowledge distillation is used to compress complex models into lightweight proxy models to adapt to edge device deployment; (4) Dynamic indexing and version control of the database: Vector databases (such as Pinecone) update embedded vectors in real time and support similar case retrieval; Git-LFS + DVC toolchain manages data versions and records the impact of each update on model performance; The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Data Collection and Quality Assessment Real-time acquisition of processing data: laser parameters (energy, pulse width), material response (eTe, phase transition region), and result indicators (crack density, surface roughness Ra); filtering of noisy data through anomaly detection models (such as Isolation Forest) and calculation of "data confidence score"; Step 2: Incremental Model Update AI model update: After new data input, online backpropagation is triggered to update the neural network weights, and elastic weight solidification (EWC) is used to prevent catastrophic forgetting; Example: If new data shows that a certain pulse shape causes crack propagation, the model reduces the recommendation priority of this type of parameter combination; Physical model calibration: The processing results are compared with the predictions of the dual-temperature model, and the parameters of the G(T) function are adjusted through Bayesian optimization. The error is fed back to the molecular dynamics model. Step 3: Dynamic Expansion of the Knowledge Graph Analyze causal relationships in new data (e.g., "Bessel beam → electron density gradient ↑ → sidewall cone angle ↓"); update the associated edges and node attributes in the graph database (Neo4j), support semantic queries, and introduce causal inference models (e.g., Do-Calculus) to distinguish between correlation and causality, avoiding misleading associations; Step 4: Closed-loop verification and version release Test the updated model in a digital twin environment to simulate extreme conditions (such as material impurities and focus shift); compare the performance of the new and old models through A / B testing, and deploy only if the following conditions are met: prediction error reduction >5% and stability of key indicators (such as heat-affected zone thickness) is improved; release the new model version to edge devices, and archive the old version for disaster recovery.

(3) Reinforcement learning adaptive optimization Contextual RL: Material properties (band gap, heat capacity) and target indicators (crack tolerance, shear rate) are used as state variables; Safety exploration mechanism: Constrains the search range of parameters to avoid material explosion caused by excessive energy. Improved reward function: R = α⋅cutting quality + β⋅efficiency − γ⋅energy loss − δ⋅defect penalty term; (4) Digital twin-driven simulation and pre-play High-fidelity virtual environment: Integrating molecular dynamics (MD) and two-temperature model (TTM) for real-time simulation of nonlinear interactions between lasers and new materials; Active sampling strategy: Based on Bayesian optimization uncertainty sampling, priority is given to simulating high-risk parameter regions (such as near ablation threshold pulses). (5) Causal inference and interpretability analysis Structural Causal Model (SCM): Analyzes the causal chain of "pulse shape → electron temperature → phase transition type → cutting quality" to avoid misleading correlations; Dynamic knowledge graph update: New experimental conclusions are entered into the database in the form of triplets (e.g., (novel silicon carbide, pulse width tolerance, <100fs)). The specific operation process is as follows: Step 1: Cold Start of New Materials / New Tasks Input the parameters of the new material, the system queries the knowledge graph, loads the migration strategy template when similar materials exist, starts the digital twin simulation when there is no matching record, and generates the safety parameter boundary. The results of both are then used to conduct small sample exploration experiments, and finally output the evaluation of the initial performance. Step 2: Online Incremental Learning Loop Step 1: Data Awareness; Step 2: Strategy Optimization: The RL agent selects actions based on the state (material response + target offset) (e.g., increasing the number of spatial modulation rings); the meta-model updates the policy network weights every 10 minutes; Step 3: Knowledge Accumulation: Successful strategies are stored in the case library, and failed cases trigger causal analysis; the confidence weights of the material-parameter mapping database are updated; Step 4: System Self-Check: The model's generalization ability is periodically verified (e.g., through adversarial example testing); outdated strategies are phased out (e.g., solutions with stability <90% are automatically deactivated); Step 3: Target Co-evolution When a user adds a new constraint (such as "reduce energy consumption by 30%)): Pareto Front Search: Solving for the optimal three-dimensional solution set of cutting quality / energy consumption / speed using the NSGA-III algorithm; Constraints satisfying surrogate model: feasibility of training a graph neural network (GNN) to predict parameter combinations; Human-machine collaborative decision-making: Visualizes the distribution of optimal solutions and supports interactive adjustment of weights by users.
