The precise pixel-level localization of 2D material flakes is crucial for high-throughput screening. However, traditional fully supervised methods rely on dense annotations, which are costly and time-consuming, severely limiting the practical deployment of segmentation models.

Steel surface defect segmentation is critical for industrial quality inspection, yet existing methods struggle with elongated, anisotropic defects such as cracks and scratches due to the isotropic receptive fields of standard convolutions and rigid sampling grids that cannot adapt to irregular defect boundaries. To address these limitations, we propose Strip-based Predictor for Deformable Convolutional Networks (SPDCN) with two key innovations.
