Systems/techniques that facilitate de-identified search of part designs are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a part design file provided by a client device, wherein the part design file can comprise a computer-aided design (CAD) geometry of a part. In various aspects, the system can search an historical database for a same or similar instance of the part, via performance of a multi-staged search. In various instances, the multi-staged search can be based on a cryptographic hash of the part design file, on a spatial hash of the CAD geometry, and on an anonymized feature vector extracted from the CAD geometry. In various cases, the system can return, to the client device and in response to the multi-staged search, an electronic notification indicating whether the same or similar instance of the part was identified.

De-identified search of part designs

Systems/techniques that facilitate de-identified search of part designs are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a part design file provided by a client device, wherein the part design file can comprise a computer-aided design (CAD) geometry of a part. In various aspects, the system can determine whether the part design file is subject to any manufacturing restrictions, via performance of a multi-staged search of an historical database. In various instances, the multi-staged search can be based on a cryptographic hash of the part design file, on a spatial hash of the CAD geometry, and on an anonymized feature vector extracted from the CAD geometry. In various cases, the system can return, to the client device and in response to the multi-staged search, an electronic notification indicating whether the part design file is subject to any manufacturing restrictions.

Various embodiments may involve obtaining an image of at least a section of a manufactured part; determining, based on executing a neural network on the image, that the manufactured part was not fabricated according to a specification for the manufactured part, wherein the neural network was trained to associate images of manufactured parts with corresponding indicators of specifications for the manufactured parts; and, in response to determining that the manufactured part was not fabricated according to the specification, generating an electronic alert indicating that the manufactured part was improperly fabricated.
