Tool wear prediction can ensure product quality and production efficiency during manufacturing. Although traditional methods have achieved some success, they often face accuracy and real-time performance limitations. The current study combines multi-channel 1D convolutional neural networks (1D-CNNs) with temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) to enhance the precision and efficiency of tool wear prediction. A multi-channel 1D-CNN architecture is constructed to extract features from multi-source data. Additionally, a TCN is utilized for time series analysis to establish long-term dependencies and achieve more accurate predictions. Moreover, considering the parallel computation of the designed architecture, the computational efficiency is significantly improved. The experimental results reveal the performance of the established model in forecasting tool wear and its superiority to the existing studies in all relevant evaluation indices.

To solve the problem of fault diagnosis for the key components of the CNC machine feed system under the condition of variable speed conditions, an intelligent fault diagnosis method based on multi-domain feature extraction and an ensemble learning model is proposed in this study. First, various monitoring signals including vibration signals, noise signals, and current signals are collected. Then, the monitoring signals are preprocessed and the time domain, frequency domain, and time–frequency domain feature indices are extracted to construct a multi-dimensional mixed-domain feature set. Finally, the feature set is entered into the constructed DoubleEnsemble–LightGBM model to realize the fault diagnosis of the key components of the feed system. The experimental results show that the model can achieve good diagnosis results under different working conditions for both the widely used dataset and the feed system test bench dataset, and the average overall accuracy is 91.07% and 98.06%, respectively. Compared with XGBoost and other advanced ensemble learning models, this method demonstrates better accuracy. Therefore, the proposed method provides technical support for the stable operation and intelligence of CNC machines.

Aiming at the problems of low positioning accuracy and poor mapping effect of the visual SLAM system caused by the poor quality of the dynamic object mask in an indoor dynamic environment, an indoor dynamic VSLAM algorithm based on the YOLOv8 model and depth information (YOD-SLAM) is proposed based on the ORB-SLAM3 system. Firstly, the YOLOv8 model obtains the original mask of a priori dynamic objects, and the depth information is used to modify the mask. Secondly, the mask’s depth information and center point are used to a priori determine if the dynamic object has missed detection and if the mask needs to be redrawn. Then, the mask edge distance and depth information are used to judge the movement state of non-prior dynamic objects. Finally, all dynamic object information is removed, and the remaining static objects are used for posing estimation and dense point cloud mapping. The accuracy of camera positioning and the construction effect of dense point cloud maps are verified using the TUM RGB-D dataset and real environment data. The results show that YOD-SLAM has a higher positioning accuracy and dense point cloud mapping effect in dynamic scenes than other advanced SLAM systems such as DS-SLAM and DynaSLAM.

Tool wear (TW) is the gradual deterioration and loss of cutting edges due to continuous cutting operations in real production scenarios. This wear can affect the quality of the cut, increase production costs, reduce workpiece accuracy, and lead to sudden tool breakage, affecting productivity and safety. Nevertheless, since conventional tool wear monitoring (TWM) approaches often employ complex physical models and empirical rules, their application to complex and non-linear manufacturing processes is challenging. As a result, this study presents a TWM model using a convolutional neural network (CNN), an Informer encoder, and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM). First, local feature extraction is performed on the input multi-sensor signals using CNN. Then, the Informer encoder deals with long-term time dependencies and captures global time features. Finally, BiLSTM captures the time dependency in the data and outputs the predicted tool wear state through the fully connected layer. The experimental results show that the proposed TWM model achieves a prediction accuracy of 99%. It is able to meet the TWM accuracy requirements of real production needs. Moreover, this method also has good interpretability, which can help to understand the critical tool wear factors.

Aiming at the problem that dynamic targets in indoor environments lead to low accuracy and large errors in the localization and position estimation of visual SLAM systems and the inability to build maps containing semantic information, a semantic visual SLAM algorithm based on the semantic segmentation network DeepLabV3+ and LK optical flow is proposed based on the ORB-SLAM2 system. First, the dynamic target feature points are detected and rejected based on the lightweight semantic segmentation network DeepLabV3+ and LK optical flow method. Second, the static environment occluded by the dynamic target is repaired using the time-weighted multi-frame fusion background repair technique. Lastly, the filtered static feature points are used for feature matching and position calculation. Meanwhile, the semantic labeling information of static objects obtained based on the lightweight semantic segmentation network DeepLabV3+ is fused with the static environment information after background repair to generate dense point cloud maps containing semantic information, and the semantic dense point cloud maps are transformed into semantic octree maps using the octree spatial segmentation data structure. The localization accuracy of the visual SLAM system and the construction of the semantic maps are verified using the widely used TUM RGB-D dataset and real scene data, respectively. The experimental results show that the proposed semantic visual SLAM algorithm can effectively reduce the influence of dynamic targets on the system, and compared with other advanced algorithms, such as DynaSLAM, it has the highest performance in indoor dynamic environments in terms of localization accuracy and time consumption. In addition, semantic maps can be constructed so that the robot can better understand and adapt to the indoor dynamic environment.
