Abstract Scope |
This study delves into the application of advanced, AI-based image segmentation models to identify platinum particles on key components of Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) systems. These particles, introduced to mitigate radiation-induced cracking and stress corrosion, play a crucial role in reactor performance. Employing multiple segmentation models on small image datasets, our research aims to precisely characterize platinum particles adhering to reactor surfaces and to determine the application robustness of existing models. Both the characteristics of the image data and of the segmentation models are relevant to optimizing segmentation quality. By understanding how the models and data interact, we can select and apply a model to minimize the expense of data collection and annotation. This exploration provides a foundation for future insights into the interplay between platinum particle characteristics and their impact on BWR nuclear reactor functionality. |
