Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study presents a design-integrated visual intelligence framework for micro-component quality assurance, enabling interpretable defect detection and real-time feedback in CAD-centric engineering workflows. The proposed Multi-Scale Multi-Feature Hybrid Model (MSMFHM) combines morphological and textural representations through bidirectional cross-attention with entropy-guided weighting. The architecture consists of a Resize-Focus preprocessor, Multi-Scale Mix Module, Multi-Feature Fusion Module, and dual-head decoder, aligning visual features with boundary-represented (B-Rep) CAD entities for tolerance verification and design traceability. Experiments on the TEC-Defect dataset demonstrate a Top-1 accuracy of 96.8% and a Macro-F1 score of 95.1%. Zero-shot validation on the DAGM2007 dataset confirms cross-domain generalization. The framework achieves 168 FPS at 3.8 GFLOPs on embedded hardware, ensuring deployment efficiency. Grad-CAM visualizations highlight interpretable feature attention and precise defect localization. The MSMFHM framework establishes an intelligent, CAD-integrated defect analysis pipeline, promoting proactive quality assurance and cyber-physical co-design across manufacturing processes.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
