• Abstract summary: The in situ synchrotron high-energy X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) technique is highly utilized by researchers to analyze the crystallographic structures of materials. An atomic structure of a material can be identified by its diffraction pattern, along with detailed analysis such as Rietveld refinement. We present an investigation of machine learning methods for fast and reliable identification and separation of the single crystal diffraction spots in XRD images.

• Abstract: The in situ synchrotron high-energy X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) technique is highly utilized by researchers to analyze the crystallographic structures of materials in functional devices (e.g., battery materials) or in complex sample environments (e.g., diamond anvil cells or syntheses reactors). An atomic structure of a material can be identified by its diffraction pattern, along with detailed analysis such as Rietveld refinement which indicates how the measured structure deviates from the ideal structure (e.g., internal stresses or defects). For in situ experiments, a series of XRD images is usually collected on the same sample at different conditions (e.g., adiabatic conditions), yielding different states of matter, or simply collected continuously as a function of time to track the change of a sample over a chemical or physical process. In situ experiments are usually performed with area detectors, collecting 2D images composed of diffraction rings for ideal powders. Depending on the material's form, one may observe different characteristics other than the typical Debye Scherrer rings for a realistic sample and its environments, such as textures or preferred orientations and single crystal diffraction spots in the 2D XRD image. In this work, we present an investigation of machine learning methods for fast and reliable identification and separation of the single crystal diffraction spots in XRD images. The exclusion of artifacts during an XRD image integration process allows a precise analysis of the powder diffraction rings of interest. We observe that the gradient boosting method can consistently produce high accuracy results when it is trained with small subsets of highly diverse datasets. The method dramatically decreases the amount of time spent on identifying and separating single crystal spots in comparison to the conventional method.
