Fig. S2. Application of the trained model to a different NCA secondary particle for detection and segmentation performance for irregular shape pores. This extra data supports that the accuracy of >97% for feature segmentation is well maintained, thus suggesting the model’s generalizability. Fig. S3. Comparison of pore segmentation performance between human-driven process with preprocessed image dataset and CNN-assisted process with unprocessed image dataset. Without preprocessing, false-positive detection in feature segmentation was notably increased for using the CNN-assisted process. This result indicates the importance of preprocessing of input images for deep learning-assisted pore segmentation.
