AB - In most cases, the analysis of small-angle and wide-angle X-ray scattering(SAXS and WAXS, respectively) requires a theoretical model to describe thesample’s scattering, complicating the interpretation of the scattering resultingfrom complex heterogeneous samples. This is the reason why, in general, theanalysis of a large number of scattering patterns, such as are generated by time-resolved and scanning methods, remains challenging. Here, a model-freeclassification method to separate SAXS/WAXS signals on the basis of theirinflection points is introduced and demonstrated. This article focuses on thesegmentation of scanning SAXS/WAXS maps for which each pixel correspondsto an azimuthally integrated scattering curve. In such a way, the samplecomposition distribution can be segmented through signal classification withoutapplying a model or previous sample knowledge. Dimensionality reduction andclustering algorithms are employed to classify SAXS/WAXS signals according totheir similarity. The number of clusters,i.e.the main sample regions detected bySAXS/WAXS signal similarity, is automatically estimated. From each cluster, amain representative SAXS/WAXS signal is extracted to uncover the spatialdistribution of the mixtures of phases that form the sample. As examples ofapplications, a mudrock sample and two breast tissue lesions are segmented.
