Abstract
Industry 4.0 encourages industries to digitise the manufacturing system to facilitate human-robot collaboration (HRC) to foster efficiency, agility and resilience. This cutting-edge technology strikes a balance between fully automated and manual operations to maximise the benefits of both humans and assistant robots (known as cobots) working together on complicated and prone-to-hazardous tasks in a collaborative manner in an assembly system. However, the introduction of HRC poses a significant challenge for assembly line balancing since, besides typical assigning tasks to workstations, the other two important decisions must also be made regarding equipping workstations with appropriate cobots as well as scheduling collaborative tasks for workers and cobots. In this article, the cobot assembly line balancing problem (CoALBP), which just initially emerged a few years ago, is thoroughly reviewed. The 4M1E (i.e., man, machine, material, method and environment) framework is applied for categorising the problem to make the review process more effective. All of the articles reviewed are compared, and their key distinct features are summarised. Finally, guidelines for additional studies on the CoALBP are offered.

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
