用两阶段神经网络精准识别合金显微图像中的析出相

The performance of advanced materials for extreme environments is underpinned by their microstructure, including the size and distribution of reinforcing phases. Chromium-based superalloys are a recently proposed alternative to conventional face-centred-cubic superalloys for high-temperature applications, such as Concentrated Solar Power, and their development requires efficient measurement of precipitate volume fraction and size distribution from electron microscopy images. Traditional fixed-threshold image processing is sensitive to background noise, generalises poorly across materials, and requires substantial manual measurement effort. To address these bottlenecks, this study proposes DT-SegNet, an end-to-end two-stage deep learning scheme based on YOLOv5 and SegFormer for object detection and segmentation in electron microscopy images. The approach combines the training efficiency of convolutional neural networks at the detection stage with the segmentation accuracy of a Vision Transformer. Numerical experiments show that DT-SegNet substantially outperforms state-of-the-art segmentation tools offered by Weka and ilastik across metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The model provides a useful tool for alloy-development microstructure examinations and helps address the large datasets associated with high-throughput alloy development.
