A Revolution in Quantitative Petrography
Digitization and Automation with Machine Learning
Polarization microscopy provides a broad set of challenges when preparing to build automated workflows for sample digitization. These unique challenges, broadly arise from orientation dependence and can be tackled using a combination of specialized equipment, automation, image processing, and machine-learning-based analysis techniques.
