Cinder is a crystal-image classification tool developed for mobile platforms. It is used to score crystallization experiment images into one of four categories: Clear, Precipitate, Other and Crystal. Each week we provide a new batch of images which we would like to be able to classify more robustly. Every one of these images which you score for us will be used to help improve our AI for machine recognition of crystal outcomes.
