<strong>Segmentation</strong> of the pores<br />

The polished clinker shows two types of pores:<br />

• Pores that are completely filled with the epoxy resin during the clinker pre<strong>par</strong>ation.<br />

• Pores that are filled with the polishing product that reflect the light very much.<br />

Two segmentation algorithms for these two types of pores were developed.<br />

• Pores filled with the epoxy resin: the filled pores present a homogeneous and<br />

<strong>un</strong>structured surface because the resin is not crystalline. It is <strong>un</strong>coloured and forms a<br />

grey area with a middle brightness. The homogeneity can be described by using the<br />

<strong>gradient</strong> of the image. A homogeneous image has a constant <strong>gradient</strong> of zero. By<br />

extracting the homogeneous regions in the image which have a minimum size and<br />

which are <strong>un</strong>coloured, the epoxy resin can be se<strong>par</strong>ated from the crystals.<br />

• Not saturated pores: the agent used to polish the sample fills up the not saturated<br />

pores. This causes a very bright area, which is getting continuously darker to the<br />

borders of the pore. The algorithm takes advantage of these properties and looks for<br />

the central zone, which is bright and homogeneous. Once detected, the area is<br />

expanded by adding the border-points <strong>un</strong>til the relatively dark limits of the crystals are<br />

reached.<br />
