Explainable Temporal Attention-based Defect Detection For Fillet Joints in Real-Time Gas Metal Arc Welding Based on Multi-modal Data

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 7, 2026 · UTC

Deep learning is an efficient technique to monitor the real time welding process, reducing post-welding repairs and production delays. This paper leverages the monitoring capability by proposing a multi modal temporal attention based deep learning defect detection model for internal defects that are challenging to detect, including porosity, lack of penetration and fusion, undercut, and cold lap during Gas Metal Arc Welding in fillet joints. The model is trained on collected welding images and sound data from an industrial collaborative welding robot. The results show that the attention module
