Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to classifying semantics of a particle or other material component. In one embodiment, a method includes, in response to receiving a particle image, analyzing the particle image to identify characteristics of the particle represented in respective pixels of the particle image to produce a segmented image that groups the pixels into subregions. The method includes identifying semantics of the particle according to at least boundaries between the subregions. The semantics define expected behaviors of the particle in relation to material physics. The method includes providing the segmented image including the semantics as an electronic output.
