AI model infers material microstructures from X-ray diffraction data

Researchers have developed a novel cross-modal learning framework to infer 3D dislocation microstructures directly from X-ray diffraction data. This approach embeds representations of dislocation density fields and their corresponding virtual X-ray diffraction patterns into a shared latent space using contrastive learning. The study found that model performance significantly improves with increasing dataset size, approaching saturation with approximately 500 representative observations from a larger dataset. This method offers an efficient way to learn structure-diffraction relationships and accurately predict dislocation density fields from unseen diffraction data. AI
