Henein, H., Bogno, A.-A., Yin, S., Natzke, P., Gallerneault, M.
Scandium (Sc) is an expensive alloying element which has an important effect on the properties of aluminum alloys. It is of interest to determine for a variety of solidification conditions the effect of minor addition, in the hypoeutectic levels, of Sc on Al alloys. This study builds on past work...

Automated semantic segmentation of NiCrBSi-WC optical microscopy images using convolutional neural networks
Download2022-01-01
Rose, D., Forth, J., Henein, H., Wolfe, T., Qureshi, A.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were used for the semantic segmentation of angular monocrystalline WC from NiCrBSi-WC optical microscopy images. This deep learning approach was able to emulate the laborious task of manual segmentation effectively, with a mean intersection over union (IOU)...
