TACoS framework uses weak supervision for 2D material segmentation

Researchers have developed TACoS, a novel framework for segmenting two-dimensional materials like graphene and molybdenum disulfide using weakly supervised learning. This method significantly reduces the need for extensive pixel-level annotations, which are typically required for precise localization. TACoS integrates semi-supervised consistency learning with structured energy constraints, employing modules for distribution alignment and tree regularization to guide segmentation. The framework also incorporates asymmetric regional contrast learning to improve accuracy in challenging areas with low contrast or complex backgrounds. Experiments show TACoS achieves over 96% of fully supervised performance with less than 0.6% of the annotated data, offering an efficient solution for high-throughput screening. AI

IMPACT This weakly supervised approach could significantly reduce the cost and time associated with material science research by minimizing the need for manual annotation.

    TACoS: Weakly Supervised Learning of Two-Dimensional Materials from Scribble Annotations to Precise Segmentation

    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. Th…
