  Abstract: This study aims to develop an interpretable and high-accuracy machine learning framework for predicting the mechanical properties of 3D-printed fiber-reinforced polymer composites, with a focus on structure–property correlations relevant to polymer processing and functional performance. Composite specimens based on PLA and ABS matrices were fabricated using FDM with varying weight fractions (5–20 wt%) of carbon and glass fibers. Standardized mechanical testing (ASTM D638, D256, D790) was performed to evaluate tensile …
