Real-time Monitoring for Disk Laser Welding Based on Feature Selection and SVM

In order to automatically evaluate the welding quality during high-power disk laser welding, a real-time monitoring system was developed. The images of laser-induced metal vapor during welding were captured and fifteen features were extracted. A feature selection method based on a sequential forward floating selection algorithm was employed to identify the optimal feature subset, and a support vector machine (SVM) classifier was built to recognize the welding quality. The experiment results demonstrated that this method had satisfactory performance, and could be applied in laser welding monitoring applications.
