This course covers the wide range of advanced segmentation methods that can be applied to X-ray CT data for post processing analysis.
About this Event

PLEASE NOTE: This course is only free to University of Manchester Staff or Students.

Standard binerisation methods are explored for simple structure analysis while watershed methods are explained for multiphase materials. The final parts of the course concentrate on the production of bespoke segmentation pipelines.

Course Timings

  • Start time: The course will start promptly at 9:30am, you are welcome to join the Zoom meeting in advance
  • Breaks: there will be breaks throughout the day
  • End time: the finish time can be variable between 3:00pm - 4:30pm as it depends on the number of questions
