Enhancing EBSD throughput of battery electrode materials using super-resolution generative adversarial networks

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper presents a super‑resolution generative adversarial network (SRGAN) that boosts electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) throughput for lithium‑ion battery electrode materials. Trained on LiNixMnyCozO2 cathode data, the SRGAN outperforms classical interpolation across 2×–12× upscaling, especially preserving small grains and realistic boundaries. A 5× upscaling yields a 25× speed‑up or larger field of view with acceptable errors in grain size and shape metrics.

PCP-GAN: Property-Constrained Pore-scale image reconstruction via conditional Generative Adversarial Networks

arXiv:2510. 19465v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Obtaining truly representative pore-scale images that match bulk formation properties remains a fundamental challenge in subsurface characterization, as natural spatial heterogeneity causes extracted sub-images to deviate significantly from core-measured values.
