Monitoring the gas metal arc additive manufacturing process using unsupervised machine learning

The study aimed to assess the performance of several unsupervised machine learning (ML) techniques in online anomaly (The term “anomaly” is used here to indicate a departure from expected process behavior which may indicate a quality issue which requires further investigation. The term “defect detection” has often been used previously but the specific imperfection is often indirectly inferred.) detection during surface tension transfer (STT)-based wire arc additive manufacturing. Recent advancements in quality monitoring for wire arc manufacturing were reviewed, followed by a comparison of unsupervised ML techniques using welding current and welding voltage data collected during a defect-free deposition process. Both time domain and frequency domain feature extraction techniques were applied and compared. Three analysis methodologies were adopted: ML algorithms such as isolation forest, local outlier factor, and one-class support vector machine. The results highlight that incorporating frequency analysis, such as fast Fourier transform (FFT) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT), for feature extraction based on general frequency response and defined bandwidth frequency response, significantly improves performance, reflected in a 14% increase in F2 score, compared with time-domain features extraction. Additionally, a deep learning approach employing a convolutional autoencoder (CAE) demonstrated superior performance by processing time-frequency domain data stored as spectrograms obtained through short-time Fourier transform (STFT) analysis. The CAE method outperformed frequency domain analysis and traditional ML approaches, achieving an additional 5% improvement in F2-score. Notably, the F2-score (The F2 score is the weighted harmonic mean of the precision and recall (given a threshold value). Unlike the F1 score, which gives equal weight to precision and recall, the F2 score gives more weight to recall than to precision.) increased significantly from 0.78 in time domain analysis to 0.895 in time-frequency analysis.

Crucial future observations and directions for unveiling magnetopause dynamics and their geospace impacts

The dynamics of Earth’s magnetopause, driven by several different external/internal physical processes, plays a major role in the geospace energy budget. Given magnetopause motion couples across many space plasma regions, numerous forms of observations may provide valuable information in understanding these dynamics and their impacts. In-situ multi-point spacecraft measurements measure the local plasma environment, dynamics and processes; with upcoming swarms providing the possibility of improved spatiotemporal reconstruction of dynamical phenomena, and multi-mission conjunctions advancing understanding of the “mesoscale” coupling across the geospace “system of systems.” Soft X-ray imaging of the magnetopause should enable boundary motion to be directly remote sensed for the first time. Indirect remote sensing capabilities might be enabled through the field-aligned currents associated with disturbances to the magnetopause; by harnessing data from satellite mega-constellations in low-Earth orbit, and taking advantage of upgraded auroral imaging and ionospheric radar technology. Finally, increased numbers of closely-spaced ground magnetometers in both hemispheres may help discriminate between high-latitude processes in what has previously been a “zone of confusion.” Bringing together these multiple modes of observations for studying magnetopause dynamics is crucial. These may also be aided by advanced data processing techniques, such as physics-based inversions and machine learning methods, along with comparisons to increasingly sophisticated geospace assimilative models and simulations.

Localization and segmentation of atomic columns in supported nanoparticles for fast scanning transmission electron microscopy

To accurately capture the dynamic behavior of small nanoparticles in scanning transmission electron microscopy, high-quality data and advanced data processing is needed. The fast scan rate required to observe structural dynamics inherently leads to very noisy data where machine learning tools are essential for unbiased analysis. In this study, we develop a workflow based on two U-Net architectures to automatically localize and classify atomic columns at particle-support interfaces.

We test our model on both in situ and ex situ experimental time series recorded at 5 frames per second of small Pt nanoparticles supported on CeO2(111). The processed movies show sub-second dynamics of the nanoparticles and reveal site-specific movement patterns of individual atomic columns.

Addressing Demographic Bias in Age Estimation Models through Optimized Dataset Composition

Bias in facial recognition systems often results in unequal performance across demographic groups. This study addresses this by investigating how dataset composition affects the performance and bias of age estimation models across ethnicities. We fine-tuned pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) like VGG19 on the diverse UTKFace dataset (23,705 samples: 10,078 White, 4526 Black, 3434 Asian) and APPA-REAL (7691 samples: 6686 White, 231 Black, 674 Asian). Our approach involved adjusting dataset compositions by oversampling minority groups or reducing samples from overrepresented groups to mitigate bias. We conducted experiments to identify the optimal dataset composition that minimizes performance disparities among ethnic groups. The primary performance metric was Mean Absolute Error (MAE), measuring the average magnitude of prediction errors. We also analyzed the standard deviation of MAE across ethnic groups to assess performance consistency and equity. Our findings reveal that simple oversampling of minority groups does not ensure equitable performance. Instead, systematic adjustments, including reducing samples from overrepresented groups, led to more balanced performance and lower MAE standard deviations across ethnicities. These insights highlight the importance of tailored dataset adjustments and suggest exploring advanced data processing methods and algorithmic tweaks to enhance fairness and accuracy in facial recognition technologies.
