This paper presents the first comprehensive literature review of deep learning (DL) applications in additive manufacturing (AM).
The review covers three major areas of AM: design for AM, AM modeling, and monitoring and control in AM.
The analysis reveals a trend towards using deep generative models for generative design in AM, and incorporating process physics into DL models to improve AM process modeling.
The paper summarizes the current challenges and recommends areas for further investigation, including generalizing DL models for a wide range of geometry types and incorporating deep generative models to address limited and noisy AM data.
