High-speed quantitative X-ray multi-contrast imaging with deep learning based modulated pattern analysis

The advent of X-ray multi-contrast imaging methods, providing absorption, phase, and dark-field images, holds tremendous promise for complementary and non-destructive visualization of inner structures within materials and bio-samples. However, the low efficiency in measuring and analyzing X-ray modulated patterns has hindered their application in high-resolution in situ imaging. In this work, the Enhanced Scanning Pattern-based Imaging Neural Network (ESPINNet) is introduced as a powerful tool for achieving high-speed, high-resolution quantitative imaging. ESPINNet is faster than correlation-based speckle tracking methods such as XSVT and UMPA, and provides a balanced performance in terms of resolution and speed for data collection by using fewer scanning images. In comparison with our previously developed neural network, ESPINNet introduces the capability to generate dark-field images, further enhancing its versatility. By leveraging scanning patterns, ESPINNet significantly improves resolution and measurement precision. Furthermore, its adaptability to various modulation patterns, including those produced by sandpaper, coded masks, or gratings, ensures broad applicability. These features enable real-time 2D and 3D multi-contrast imaging, positioning ESPINNet as a transformative solution for applications in materials science and biomedical research, particularly for high-speed and in situ measurements.

Wavefront distortion correction in scanning tunneling microscope image

Here, we report an algorithm to identify and correct distorted wavefronts in atomic resolution scanning tunneling microscope images. This algorithm can be used to correct nonlinear in-plane distortions without prior knowledge of the physical scanning parameters, the characteristics of the piezoelectric actuator, or individual atom positions. The 2D image is first defined as a sum of sinusoidal plane waves, where a nonlinear distortion renders a curve for an otherwise ideal linear wavefront. Using the Fourier transforms of local areas of the image, the algorithm generates a wavefront vector field. The identified wavefronts are subsequently linearized for each plane wave without changing lattice orders, giving rise to distortion corrections. Our algorithm is complementary to conventional post-processing algorithms that require prior detection of real space features, which can also be used to correct nonlinear distortions in 2D images acquired by other microscopy techniques.

Enhanced Spatial Proteomics and Metabolomics from a Single Tissue Section Using MALDI-MSI and LCM-microPOTS Platforms

Spatially resolved mass spectrometry (MS)-based multi-omics workflows are becoming more utilized for revealing the complex biology that occurs within tissues. However, these approaches commonly require multiple independent tissue sections to analyze the metabolite and protein compositions of these samples. This poses a significant challenge in preserving cell- or region-specific molecular fidelity, as variations between tissue sections can compromise the accurate correlation of molecular data. Here, in this study, we developed workflows for comprehensive multi-omics profiling from a single tissue section (STS) using different MS modalities. We enhanced the functionality of an electrically insulated substrate by employing metal-assisted approaches that enabled both MS-based untargeted spatial metabolomics and proteomics from STS. This allowed metabolite imaging using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-MS imaging (MALDI-MSI), without compromising it for subsequent proteome profiling with laser capture microdissection (LCM)-based technology. Specifically, implementing copper tape as a backing for polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) slides enabled the detection of >140 metabolites across a poplar root tissue section using MALDI-trapped ion mobility spectrometry time of flight (timsTOF)-MS. Afterwards, we detected 6,571 unique proteins from two distinct root regions by leveraging LCM technology coupled to our microdroplet based sample preparation approach. We also developed an alternative workflow utilizing gold-coated PEN substrates for imaging with MALDI-Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR)-MS, which permitted the profiling of >170 metabolites and the identification of 6,542 unique proteins across a single poplar root tissue section. These results were comparable to using each assay independently without modifications. These approaches offer new opportunities for high-resolution molecular profiling of multiple omics-levels across biological tissues.

High-pressure phase transition in 3-D printed nanolamellar high-entropy alloy by imaging and simulation insights

Abstract We report on the high-resolution imaging and molecular dynamics simulations of a 3D-printed eutectic high-entropy alloy (EHEA) Ni 40 Co 20 Fe 10 Cr 10 Al 18 W 2 consisting of nanolamellar BCC and FCC phases. The direct lattice imaging of 3D-printed samples shows the Kurdjumov–Sachs (K–S) orientation relation {111} FCC parallel to {110} BCC planes in the dual-phase lamellae. Unlike traditional iron and steels, this alloy shows an irreversible BCC-to-FCC phase transformation under high pressures. The nanolamellar morphology is maintained after pressure cycling to 30 GPa, and nano-diffraction studies show both layers to be in the FCC phase. The chemical compositions of the dual-phase lamellae after pressure recovery remain unchanged, suggesting a diffusion-less BCC–FCC transformation in this EHEA. The lattice imaging of the pressure-recovered sample does not show any specific orientation relation between the two resulting FCC phases, indicating that many grain orientations are produced during the BCC–FCC phase transformation. Molecular dynamics simulations on phase transformation in a nanolamellar BCC/FCC in K–S orientation show that phase transformation from BCC to FCC is completed under high pressures, and the FCC phase is retained on decompression aided by the stable interfaces. Our work elucidates the irreversible phase transformation under static compression, providing an understanding of the orientation relationships in 3-D printed EHEA under high pressures.

A split ribozyme system for in vivo plant RNA imaging and genetic engineering

RNA plays a central role in plants, governing various cellular and physiological processes. Monitoring its dynamic abundance provides a discerning understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying plant responses to internal (developmental) and external (environmental) stimuli, paving the way for advances in plant biotechnology to engineer crops with improved resilience, quality and productivity. In general, traditional methods for analysis of RNA abundance in plants require destructive, labour-intensive and time-consuming assays. To overcome these limitations, we developed a transformative innovation for in vivo RNA imaging in plants. Specifically, we established a synthetic split ribozyme system that converts various RNA signals to orthogonal protein outputs, enabling in vivo visualisation of various RNA signals in plants. We demonstrated the utility of this system in transient expression experiments (i.e., leaf infiltration in Nicotiana benthamiana ) to detect RNAs derived from transgenes and tobacco rattle virus, respectively. Also, we successfully engineered a split ribozyme-based biosensor in Arabidopsis thaliana for in vivo visualisation of endogenous gene expression at the cellular level, demonstrating the feasibility of multi-scale (e.g., cellular and tissue level) RNA imaging in plants. Furthermore, we developed a platform for easy incorporation of different protein outputs, allowing for flexible choice of reporters to optimise the detection of target RNAs.

Parallel Runtime Interface for Fortran (PRIF) Specification (Rev. 0.6)

This document specifies an interface to support the multi-image parallelism features of Fortran, named the Parallel Runtime Interface for Fortran (PRIF). PRIF is a solution in which a runtime library is primarily responsible for implementing coarray allocation, deallocation and accesses, image synchronization, atomic operations, events, teams and collective subroutines. The Fortran compiler is responsible for transforming the invocation of Fortran-level multi-image parallelism features into procedure calls to the necessary PRIF subroutines. The interface is designed for portability across shared- and distributed-memory machines, different operating systems, and multiple architectures. Implementations of this interface are intended as an augmentation for the compiler's own runtime library. With an implementation-agnostic interface, alternative parallel runtime libraries may be developed that support the same interface. One benefit of this approach is the ability to vary the communication substrate. A central aim of this document is to define a parallel runtime interface in standard Fortran syntax, which enables us to leverage Fortran to succinctly express various properties of the procedure interfaces, including argument attributes.

Comparison of automated chemical-guided segmentation and human annotation of soil organic matter in X-ray microcomputed tomography imaging in contrasted soil types

Soil organic matter (OM) formation and persistence is strongly influenced by the spatial distribution of organic substrates and microscale soil heterogeneity by dictating OM accessibility to microorganisms. However, traditional size and/or density fractionation techniques disrupt aggregate architecture, eliminating spatial information needed to fully understand intra-aggregate OM distribution. To quantify three-dimensional OM spatial distribution and automate segmentation in X-ray microcomputed tomography (µCT) imaging without human annotation bias, we developed an iodine gas vapor (I2) based staining workflow that eliminates labor-intensive manual annotation while maintaining segmentation accuracy, using aggregates from four taxonomically diverse soils (Xerofluvent, Haploxeroll Sphagnofibrist, Palehumult) with an 8-fold range of soil organic carbon. Human annotation of 10 µCT slices by the experienced and inexperienced annotators resulted in variations up to 3% in the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), reflecting a degree of inherent subjectivity of manual labeling. Such inconsistencies are expected to compound as the number of manually annotated slices increases. Dual-energy µCT imaging at 33.1 keV (below the iodine (I) K-edge) and 33.2 keV (above the I K-edge) was used to resolve aggregate microstructure following I2 staining. The automated image subtraction pipeline identified OM regions by the I Kedge induced brightness increases, achieving DSC values of 0.58–0.83 relative to an experienced annotator. Sensitivity analyses revealed that the reconstruction alpha value—optimized via the open-source tool TomocuPy—and the 3D registration slice count were the primary determinants of accuracy, providing a novel benchmark for dual-energy soil imaging. The pipeline without GPU acceleration achieved 9.6 to 43.2 times faster than manual annotation. Using GPU-accelerated image post-processing and affine transformation matrices, the pipeline successfully segmented OM elements for large-scale datasets (3232×3232 pixel, 2048 slices) within ~5200 s from raw file acquisition to segmented output. The high-throughput approach enables the quantification of OM spatial distribution across diverse and heterogeneous soil.

Rapid detection of rare events from in situ X-ray diffraction data using machine learning

High-energy X-ray diffraction methods can non-destructively map the 3D microstructure and associated attributes of metallic polycrystalline engineering materials in their bulk form. These methods are often combined with external stimuli such as thermo-mechanical loading to take snapshots of the evolving microstructure and attributes over time. However, the extreme data volumes and the high costs of traditional data acquisition and reduction approaches pose a barrier to quickly extracting actionable insights and improving the temporal resolution of these snapshots. This article presents a fully automated technique capable of rapidly detecting the onset of plasticity in high-energy X-ray microscopy data. The technique is computationally faster by at least 50 times than the traditional approaches and works for data sets that are up to nine times sparser than a full data set. This new technique leverages self-supervised image representation learning and clustering to transform massive data sets into compact, semantic-rich representations of visually salient characteristics ( e.g. peak shapes). These characteristics can rapidly indicate anomalous events, such as changes in diffraction peak shapes. It is anticipated that this technique will provide just-in-time actionable information to drive smarter experiments that effectively deploy multi-modal X-ray diffraction methods spanning many decades of length scales.

Improving the Concrete Crack Detection Process via a Hybrid Visual Transformer Algorithm

Inspections of concrete bridges across the United States represent a significant commitment of resources, given their biannual mandate for many structures. With a notable number of aging bridges, there is an imperative need to enhance the efficiency of these inspections. This study harnessed the power of computer vision to streamline the inspection process. Our experiment examined the efficacy of a state-of-the-art Visual Transformer (ViT) model combined with distinct image enhancement detector algorithms. We benchmarked against a deep learning Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model. These models were applied to over 20,000 high-quality images from the Concrete Images for Classification dataset. Traditional crack detection methods often fall short due to their heavy reliance on time and resources. This research pioneers bridge inspection by integrating ViT with diverse image enhancement detectors, significantly improving concrete crack detection accuracy. Notably, a custom-built CNN achieves over 99% accuracy with substantially lower training time than ViT, making it an efficient solution for enhancing safety and resource conservation in infrastructure management. These advancements enhance safety by enabling reliable detection and timely maintenance, but they also align with Industry 4.0 objectives, automating manual inspections, reducing costs, and advancing technological integration in public infrastructure management.

BM3DORNL

BM3DORNL is a high-performance, open-source library for removing streak and ring artifacts from computed-tomography (CT) data, developed for neutron imaging at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Spallation Neutron Source (VENUS beamline) and applicable to X-ray CT as well. Ring artifacts — concentric rings in reconstructed slices caused by detector pixel-to-pixel response non-uniformities — appear as vertical streaks in the sinogram and degrade both image quality and quantitative analysis. BM3DORNL operates in the sinogram domain using an adaptation of the BM3D (block-matching and 3D collaborative filtering) algorithm (Dabov et al., 2007). It provides a dedicated streak-removal mode, a true multi-scale BM3D variant (after Mäkinen et al., 2021) that suppresses wide streaks single-scale methods miss, and an alternative Fourier–SVD method (~2.6× faster) combining FFT-based energy detection with rank-1 SVD. The computationally intensive core is implemented in Rust with parallel (Rayon) block matching, integral-image pre-screening, and optimized transforms, and is exposed through a simple Python API (with an optional GUI) so it integrates directly into existing tomography reconstruction pipelines. It processes both 2D sinograms and 3D sinogram stacks, is pip-installable for Linux and macOS, and is documented at https://bm3dornl.readthedocs.io.

Towards AI Based Data Classification for Decision Making During Testing

During the development of high-consequence items, test systems should be capable of differentiating between test failures resulting from narrowly missing requirements versus those indicating potentially catastrophic faults. In many instances, classifying the data corresponds to simply identifying whether measured waveforms have approximately the anticipated shape. Cast in this light, the problem reduces to converting raw data into a form optimal for use with neural network classifiers. This manuscript investigates different means of representing raw data for image classification. Raw data plots and Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) spectrograms are classified by both custom built, small-scale, Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) and open-source, multi-million parameter, pre-trained deep CNNs. In the case of time varying frequency content, the STFTs provide images with greater detail and can be accurately classified with simpler networks. This requires less memory and runs faster than classifying the raw data using the more sophisticated options—making STFTs optimal for applications with memory constraints. STFTs are not a panacea. In some cases the time-domain signal contains useful information that should not be discarded. Rather than using raw data or STFTs, the images can be constructed from both by using red and green channels of an RGB image to visualize the real and imaginary components of the transform, with the raw data occupying the blue channel.

Multiplexing and Demultiplexing Signals for Radiography Application Using the Discrete Fourier Transform

Our goal is to develop an X-ray phase-contrast imaging system that can provide excellent soft tissue contrast of phase, attenuation, and small-angle scatter. We propose to replace the common system of G0, G1, and G2 gradings with a biprism array to replace the G1 grading and introduce a novel X-ray tube designed to replace the motion of the phase stepping grading G2. The proposed X-ray tube uses temporal multiplexing to provide simultaneous virtual “electronic phase stepping.” In this work the discrete Fourier transform is used to separate from the composite measurement individual X-ray phase contrast measurements sampled at different frequencies. The method performs a discrete Fourier transform of a composite refence sequence to obtain using the frequency amplitudes calibration factors needed to extract the X-ray phase contrast measurement amplitudes from the composite image. The composite reference sequence is the sum of the individual sequences, at different frequencies, with amplitudes of one. The method takes the discrete Fourier transform of this composite reference sequence; whereby, the amplitude of each frequency component is compared with the total sum of its stand-alone sequence amplitude. A calibration factor is determined so that the amplitude of this composite reference frequency times the calibration factor must equal the total sum of the sequence amplitude—the zero-frequency amplitude of the discrete Fourier transform of its stand-alone sequence. To demultiplex the composite measured signal these calibration factors are multiplied by the amplitudes of the frequency components of the discrete Fourier transform of the composite X-phase-contrast measurement to obtain the amplitude of each frequency encoded measurement. Using these calibration factors, we demonstrate with the discrete Fourier transform in Mathematica the extraction of individual images from a composite image that one would expect obtaining from our proposed new X-ray phase contrast imaging system. We then demonstrate as an example how using images from X-ray phase contrast data one can calculate phase, attenuation and the dark field images using grading phase step data supplied to use from Microworks, GmbH in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Oxide nucleation via threshold-driven volume instability in Ni oxidation

Oxide nucleation dictates the onset of metal oxidation, yet the atomistic pathways bridging initial oxygen adsorption to bulk phase transformation remain elusive. Here, we utilize in-situ atomic-resolution imaging to directly capture the nucleation of nickel oxide, revealing a threshold-driven, cooperative transformation of Ni into NiO. Our observations identify a distinct incubation period during which oxygen progressively accumulates in subsurface layers. Once a critical concentration and penetration depth are reached, a collective lattice reconfiguration is triggered, abruptly converting multiple Ni layers into NiO. Atomistic simulations corroborate this mechanism, identifying a cooperative lattice instability induced by subsurface oxygen saturation. These results establish subsurface oxygen incorporation as the missing mechanistic link between surface adsorption and three-dimensional oxide formation, providing an atomistic framework to understand and control reactive phase transformations in materials synthesis, catalysis, and degradation.

INR-TEM: Robust cavity detection in multifocus TEM images via implicit neural representations

When characterizing materials using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images, detecting and quantifying small features in microstructures, such as cavities, pose significant challenges. Off-the-shelf object detection models, including YOLOv8, show considerable performance degradation, particularly when images vary in resolution and the objects of interest possess a low percentage of the total image region of interest. In this study, we introduce a novel detection pipeline that incorporates an implicit neural representation (INR)-based detection method, INR-TEM, and two-modality imaging (e.g., under-focused and over-focused images typically acquired during materials characterization) to improve object detection performance. The INR-TEM method incorporates a pixel-wise prediction principle inspired by pixel-wise centerness weighting. INR-TEM demonstrates superior robustness to resolution variability, maintaining high detection accuracy even at low image resolutions compared to YOLOv8. To leverage INR-TEM effectively in real-world two-modality characterization applications, we further integrate a two-stage motion correction pipeline designed explicitly for aligning multifocus TEM images. The alignment process, comprising keypoint (based on scale-invariant feature transform, SIFT) and intensity matching, significantly mitigates the adverse effects of perceived motion-induced image degradation during through-focal TEM imaging, directly enhancing INR-TEM’s detection capability over conventional single-focus images. Our integrated INR-TEM cavity detection framework notably improves performance across various cavity sizes, outperforming off-the-shelf YOLOv8 detections that rely on a single image modality.

Fourier-based three-dimensional multistage transformer for aberration correction in multicellular specimens

High-resolution tissue imaging is often compromised by sample-induced optical aberrations that degrade resolution and contrast. Although wavefront sensor-based adaptive optics (AO) can measure these aberrations, such hardware solutions are typically complex, expensive to implement and slow when serially mapping spatially varying aberrations across large fields of view. Here we introduce AOViFT (adaptive optical vision Fourier transformer)—a machine learning-based aberration sensing framework built around a three-dimensional multistage vision transformer that operates on Fourier domain embeddings. AOViFT infers aberrations and restores diffraction-limited performance in puncta-labeled specimens with substantially reduced computational cost, training time and memory footprint compared to conventional architectures or real-space networks. We validated AOViFT on live gene-edited zebrafish embryos, demonstrating its ability to correct spatially varying aberrations using either a deformable mirror or postacquisition deconvolution. By eliminating the need for the guide star and wavefront sensing hardware and simplifying the experimental workflow, AOViFT lowers technical barriers for high-resolution volumetric microscopy across diverse biological samples.

Combined TDLAS and chemiluminescence imaging in a flat flame burner operated with NH3/H2 blends

Ammonia is viewed as a viable hydrogen carrier due to favorable storage and transport characteristics. While it can be re-converted to hydrogen at point-of-use via thermal catalytic cracking, direct utilization in combustion systems can result in reduced costs and improved efficiency. A major barrier to this approach is the low flammability and potential for high nitrogen oxide emissions, driven by fuel-bound nitrogen and complex kinetic pathways. While a number of kinetic mechanisms currently exist for simulating ammonia combustion, a major need continues to be direct information about species profiles in easy-to-model systems capable of isolating chemical kinetics from multi-dimensional fluid dynamic effects. This paper reports on recent species measurements made in a flat flame burner using a combined tunable-diode-laser-absorption-spectroscopy (TDLAS) and chemiluminescence imaging approach. Three flame conditions were included representative of NH3/H2 blends, partially cracked NH3 (inc. N2), and 100% NH3 with enhanced air (30% oxygen). Two NIR distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes were used to determine H2O concentration and temperature (via ratio thermometry) at various radial and axial positions, after which an inverse Abel transform was used to infer centerline values. Companion images were collected using a Princeton Instrument PI-MAX intensified camera equipped with a 105mm UV lens and multiple filter sets targeting OH*, NH*, and NH2* emission. Results were compared to companion Cantera burner-stabilized flame simulations using various kinetic mechanisms. A recent mechanism including excited species chemistry was also included, to investigate whether excited and ground state profiles exhibit significant differences.
