FAQs
Segmentation and 2D to 3D reconstruction models can be trained using a single micrograph, as long as it is large enough to capture the features you are interested in. Optimisation studies require between 3 and 50 images, depending on the number of process parameters to be explored. Micrographs must be cross sectional images of your material, but can be collected using a range of different imaging techniques e.g SEM, optical microscopes, EBSD. There are no specific magnification or resolution requirements - any features captured in your data will be analysed and included in the models.
Our algorithms have been validated on a broad range of materials, including alloys, battery materials, ceramics and more. The model learns solely based on the features in your data, and is thus largely material agnostic. See microlib.io for examples of reconstructions.
Segmentation allows users to extract statistical information about phase morphology, such as volume fractions, surface area, and correlation functions. Reconstruction allows users to perform 3D electrochemical and mechanical modelling to better understand how and why materials behave differently. New microstructures with a specific microstructural property (e.g. volume fraction) can also be predicted. Finally, optimisation allows users to directly determine the best manufacturing parameters for their material processing routes.
No - we understand that micrographs and processing data often constitute core IP for manufacturers. Any data you upload to the polaron platform is only used to train your private models, and is isolated from any users outside your organisation. Unlike many AI companies, Polaron does not develop centralised foundational models, instead training bespoke models from scratch on small datasets. This approach was designed to match the unique requirements of material manufacturing.
