用时空图变压器建模3D打印中多层相互作用，提升质量预测准确率。

Metal additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of complex parts, but achieving consistent build quality remains challenging due to interactions induced by repeated layer-wise melting, solidification, and reheating across the 3D build. Advanced sensing provide a great opportunity to collect rich observations of the actual manufacturing process for real-time quality monitoring and control. Yet, existing methods often have limited ability to represent multi-layer interactions and quantify their contributions to quality. In this paper, we develop a novel spatiotemporal graph transformer for modeling 3D neighborhood interactions and learn their effects on build quality in metal additive manufacturing. Specifically, we first introduce a weighted network representation of the manufacturing process, where fusing locations are modeled as nodes, and their spatial- and process-dependent relationships are encoded as edge weights. This representation also enables the integration of multimodal data (e.g., geometric design, process settings, and in-situ sensing data) into a unified structure for downstream learning tasks. Building on this network, we further design a dual-attention graph transformer that captures both within-node feature dependencies and cross-node neighborhood interactions for quality representation learning. Experimental results show that the proposed framework significantly outperforms image-based, sequence-based, and graph-based models in characterizing process-quality relationships. More importantly, the incorporation of cross-layer interactions is critical for improving quality prediction performance. This framework is broadly applicable to other tasks involving network modeling and graph-based representation learning.
