X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) is widely used in industrial inspection for detailed 3D visualization of multi-material components. However, segmenting XCT data remains challenging due to material heterogeneity, noise, and artifacts. This study presents a deep learning pipeline based on the U-Net architecture to automate segmentation tasks in multi-energy XCT scans. Applied to a complex test object, the model achieved high performance, with high accuracy and Dice scores across 17 distinct object classes—a level of granularity rarely addressed in existing studies. This work establishes a reproducible framework for XCT analysis and lays the foundation for more advanced architectures such as ResNet-based U-Nets and future 3D segmentation using models like 3D U-Net or V-Net.

摘要

X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) is widely used in industrial inspection for detailed 3D visualization of multi-material components. However, segmenting XCT data remains challenging due to material heterogeneity, noise, and artifacts. This study presents a deep learning pipeline based on the U-Net architecture to automate segmentation tasks in multi-energy XCT scans. Applied to a complex test object, the model achieved high performance, with high accuracy and Dice scores across 17 distinct object classes—a level of granularity rarely addressed in existing studies. This work establishes a reproducible framework for XCT analysis and lays the foundation for more advanced architectures such as ResNet-based U-Nets and future 3D segmentation using models like 3D U-Net or V-Net.
