Abstract
The dynamics of drilling processes presents chaotic and unsteady characteristics, which prevent deterministic description. Vibration signals obtained during the microdrilling process contain rich information reflecting tool and process conditions. Experiments described in this paper show that as drill wear develops and intensifies, the energy distribution of the vibration signal tends to shift towards the low-frequency range. Traditional frequency domain analysis through the fast Fourier transform is not able to capture such transitions with desirable accuracy since the process is highly non-stationary. We propose a new method that combines the discrete wavelet transform with statistical estimations of the signal energy distribution to extract features describing such energy shifts quantitatively. Through a multiresolution transformation, four feature parameters most sensitive to drill wear conditions are extracted. A tool wear index is proposed as a linear function of the extracted features, which also represents the severity of tool wear. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through a case study at the end.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
