Abstract
This paper presents a deep-learning-based image segmentation algorithm integrated with an autonomous robotic system for the automated search and cataloging of two-dimensional (2D) materials. A Mask-RCNN neural network, trained on annotated optical microscope images of various 2D materials, enables real-time detection with robustness against variations in microscopy conditions. The system's integration with a motorized optical microscope facilitates high-throughput searching and contributes to efficient 2D material research.
