In this study, melt pool radiation monitoring and signal denoising in laser powder bed fusion is carried out. Photodiodes and semiconductor cameras are used to capture coaxial radiation signals and images of melt pools. The temperature of the melt pool rises as laser input energy increases, and the fluctuation of radiation signals caused by spatter intensifies. Further, variational mode decomposition method is used to obtain radiation signal components related to the melt pool region or non-melt pool region. The radiation of the non-molten pool region (i.e., noise) contains fundamental frequencies and related harmonics that can be decomposed into a low-frequency mode with a center frequency of ~110Hz. By comparing the correlation and the center frequency, the noise component is confirmed, and the original signal is modified accordingly. In this way, melt pool temperature accuracy is improved, enhancing melt pool behavior features.

Side-scan sonar (SSS) serves as the primary perceptual instrument for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in large-scale marine search and rescue (SAR) operations. However, the detection of critical targets is frequently hindered by severe hydro-acoustic noise, the spatial discontinuity of wreckage, and the weak visual signatures of small targets. To surmount these challenges, this paper presents WPG-DetNet. First, we introduce a Wavelet-Embedded Residual Backbone (WERB) to reconstruct the conventional downsampling paradigm. By substituting standard pooling with the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), this architecture explicitly disentangles high-frequency noise from structural information in the frequency domain, thereby achieving the adaptive preservation of edge fidelity for large human-made targets while filtering out speckle interference. Then, addressing the distinct challenge of discontinuous aircraft wreckage, the framework further incorporates a Debris Graph Reasoning Module (D-GRM). This module models scattered fragments as nodes in a topological graph to capture long-range semantic dependencies, transforming isolated instance recognition into context-aware scene understanding. Finally, to bridge the gap between AI and underwater physics, we design a Shadow-Aided Decoupling Head (SADH) equipped with a physics-informed geometric loss. By enforcing mathematical consistency between target height and acoustic shadow length, this mechanism establishes a rigorous discriminative criterion capable of distinguishing weak-echo human bodies from seabed rocks based on shadow geometry. Experiments on the SCTD dataset demonstrate that WPG-DetNet achieves a mean Average Precision (mAP50) of 97.5% and a Recall of 96.9%. Quantitative analysis reveals that our framework outperforms the classic Faster R-CNN by a margin of 12.8% in mAP50 and surpasses the Transformer-based RT-DETR-R18 by 5.6% in high-precision localization metrics (mAP50:95). Simultaneously, WPG-DetNet maintains superior efficiency with an inference speed of 62.5 FPS and a lightweight parameter count of 16.8 M, striking an optimal balance between robust perception and the real-time constraints of AUV operations.
