Eason and Ben Mills TITLE:Determination of size of urban particulates from occluded scattering patterns using deep learning and data augmentation JOURNAL: IOP Environmental Research Communications PAPER DOI IF KNOWN: 10.1088/2515-7620/abed94 This dataset contains: Fig1.jpeg Fig2.jpeg Fig3.jpeg Fig4.jpeg Fig5.jpeg Fig6.jpeg Fig3a.txt Data for X-dimension. Fig3b.txt Data for Y-dimension. Fig4a.txt Data for Y-dimension comparison. Fig5.txt Data for Y-dimension comparison with augmentation. Fig6a.txt Data for the RMSE in Y-dimension. The figures are as follows: Fig. 1 (a) Illustration of experimental setup for using a camera to collect scattering patterns from urban particulates deposited onto a microscope slide, when the particulates were illuminated with red, green and blue laser light. The particulates were also imaged for reference and sample alignment. (b) Scattering patterns and, corresponding SEM images and optical images for three different particulates (upper, middle and lower rows, respectively). The SEM images include labels of the maximum X-dimension and maximum Y-dimension of the particulates. Fig. 2 (a) Illustration of the concept of the training of a neural network using a scattering pattern paired with a dimension (e.g. Y = 15 µm), and then testing the network on a scattering pattern. Here, the test scattering pattern includes black circles (zero intensity pixel occlusions) to simulate particulates occluding the sensor. Fig. 3 Capability of the trained neural networks to determine the size of the urban particulates for (a) X-dimension and (b) Y-dimension. Fig. 4 (a) Difference between the prediction of the Y-dimension for particulate scattering patterns without occlusions and scattering patterns containing occlusions, for a total of 1 (red), 10 (green), 100 (blue) and 1000 (yellow) randomly located single occlusion pixels. (b) Scattering patterns and maximum activation of the neural network for 8 µm and 25 µm with zero pixel occlusions. Fig. 5 Difference between the prediction, using the neural network trained on augmented data, of the Y-dimension for particulate scattering patterns without occlusions and scattering patterns containing occlusions with single pixel width, for a total of 1 (red), 10 (green), 100 (blue) and 1000 (yellow) randomly located occlusion pixels. Fig. 6 (a) Absolute difference between the RMSE of all the tested scattering patterns (5-25 µm) predictions by neural network trained on original unedited data (solid circles) and a neural network trained on augmented data (hollow circles), compared with the RMSE predictions without occlusions. (b) Scattering patterns showing example occluded scattering patterns covered randomly in 100 zero intensity pixel circle occlusions of 1, 5 and 10-pixel diameters.
