Abstract
The feasibility of utilizing the acoustic emission (AE) technique for the detection and classification of cracks within monolithic dental crown is assessed in this study, owing to its non-destructive nature which enables passive monitoring of structures. The AE signals captured are subjected to analysis to extract pertinent information regarding the source and location of the cracks. A novel approach is proposed, employing deep learning 1D convolutional neural networks (1D-CNNs) for the recognition and classification of the recorded cracked signals. The AE signals, obtained through a handmade AE data acquisition unit, are converted into .csv format and subjected to denoising using Bayesian methods to eliminate background noise. The signals are collected through the breakage of pencil lead (Vallen systeme) Hsu-Nielsen-Source 0.5 (ASTM E976) applied to each surface of the dental crown. Subsequently, the data signals are divided into training and testing groups following an 85 / 15 split. The performance of the deep learning 1D-CNNs is evaluated based on Precision, Recall and total accuracy metrics. The applicated of automated deep learning in this study demonstrated significantly high overall accuracy (98.67%). The integration of handmade data acquisition with 1D-CNN crack detection proves to be an effective method for early screening. The novel method harnesses acoustic emission signals in 1D-CNNs, thereby enhancing the accuracy of clinical dental restorative crack identification and determining the onset time.
