Fully automated identification of 2D material samples

Abstract: Thin nanomaterials are key constituents of modern quantum technologies and materials research. Identifying specimens of these materials with properties required for the development of state of the art quantum devices is usually a complex and lengthy human task. In this work we provide a neural-network driven solution that allows for accurate and efficient scanning, data-processing and sample identification of experimentally relevant two-dimensional materials. We show how to approach classification of imperfect imbalanced data sets using an iterative application of multiple noisy neural networks. We embed the trained classifier into a comprehensive solution for end-to-end automatized data processing and sample identification.
