Capability enhancement of the X-ray micro-tomography system via ML-assisted approaches

Ring artifacts in X-ray micro-CT images are one of the primary causes of concern in their accurate visual interpretation and quantitative analysis. The geometry of X-ray micro-CT scanners is similar to the medical CT machines, except the sample is rotated with a stationary source and detector. The ring artifacts are caused by a defect or non-linear responses in detector pixels during the MicroCT data acquisition. Artifacts in MicroCT images can often be so severe that the images are no longer …
