Abstract Scope |
Bubble to cavity evolution in materials could greatly influence the mechanical stability of materials utilized in extreme environments, such as nuclear reactors. Nanoscale bubble counting is typically done by hand using transmission electron microscope (TEM) micrographs and annotation software in a non-scalable, post-acquisition workflow. Recently, machine learning (ML) models have been utilized to count and measure bubbles in a fraction of the time compared to manual annotation. A rapid neural network option is the You Only Look Once (YOLO) model. Factors that influence the model include: data volume and training time through epochs. This technique has been applied to many different materials, such as Ni, PdNi, and LiAlO3 with some degree of success. The selection of model development parameters will be explored to determine the optimal setting for time efficient ML model-based bubble counting. |
