Using Nearest-Neighbor Distributions to Quantify Machine Learning of Materials’ Microstructures by Jeffrey M. Rickman, Katayun Barmak, Matthew J. Patrick, Godfred Adomako Mensah

“…For example, most recently, this architecture has allowed researchers to address the long-standing problem of automated image segmentation of thin-film microstructures in bright-field TEM micrographs. Such approaches are typically based on the minimization of a binary cross-entropy loss function that compares constructed images to a ground truth at the pixel level over many epochs. …”
