Abstract
Abstract Automated particle segmentation and feature analysis of experimental image data are indispensable for data-driven material science. Deep learning-based image segmentation algorithms are promising techniques to achieve this goal but are challenging to use due to the acquisition of a large number of training images. In the present work, synthetic images are applied, resembling the experimental images in terms of geometrical and visual features, to train the state-of-art Mask region-based convolutional neural networks to segment vanadium pentoxide nanowires, a cathode material within optical density-based images acquired using spectromicroscopy. The results demonstrate the instance segmentation power in real optical intensity-based spectromicroscopy images of complex nanowires in overlapped networks and provide reliable statistical information. The model can further be used to segment nanowires in scanning electron microscopy images, which are fundamentally different from the training dataset known to the model. The proposed methodology can be extended to any optical intensity-based images of variable particle morphology, material class, and beyond.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
