Abstract Scope |
Microstructure segmentation is pivotal in materials science and metallurgy, providing insights essential for understanding and enhancing material properties. However, the scarcity of high-quality datasets poses significant challenges to developing robust segmentation models. To address this limitation, we leverage the capabilities of Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs), which have demonstrated superior generative performance in various engineering applications and literature, with our approach incorporating a strong attention mechanism for enhanced results. Our approach introduces an image-conditioned DDPM framework, enabling the generation of high-resolution metallographic images and corresponding segmentation masks conditioned on specific input images. By incorporating these synthetic metallographic images and masks into original dataset, we observed improvements in segmentation accuracy, highlighting the potential of image-conditioned DDPMs to bridge data gaps and enhance downstream segmentation performance. This offers a promising pathway for developing more reliable image segmentation pipelines, thereby empowering the materials science community with enhanced tools for microstructure analysis and classification. |
