Powder bed fusion (PBF) applies to various metallic materials used in the metal printing process of building a wide range of complex parts compared to other AM technologies. PBF process has several variants such as DMLS (direct metal laser sintering), EBM (electron beam melting), SHS (selective heat sintering), SLM (selective laser melting), and SLS (selective laser sintering). For PBF to reach its maximum potential, machine learning (ML) algorithms are used with suitable materials to achieve goals cost-effectively. Various applications of neural networks, including ANNs, CNNs, RNNs, and other popular techniques such as KNN, SVM, and GP were reviewed, and future challenges were discussed. Some special-purpose algorithms were listed as follows: GAN, SeDANN, SCNN, K-means, PCA, etc. This review presents the evolution, current status, challenges, and prospects of these technologies in terms of material, features, process parameters, applications, advantages, disadvantages, etc., to explain their significance and provide an in-depth understanding of the same.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
