A multi-task spatiotemporal deep neural network for predicting penetration depth and morphology in laser welding

arXiv:2606.26260v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In laser penetration welding, the assessment of penetration state and weld seam morphology plays a crucial role in determining the weld quality. This paper presents a comprehensive introduction of the innovative muti-task deep learning model that has the capability to predict penetration state, depth, and weld seam morphology with high accuracy. The monitoring platform relies on weld pool images captured during the laser welding process using a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor camera. The proposed model integrates spatiotemporal features
