NeuralSoftX — AI for industrial electron microscopy
NeuralSoftX is a specialist consultancy led by Dr Iván Lobato — physicist and developer of the MULTEM simulation platform. The company takes on focused industrial projects where generic tools or off-the-shelf models stop being reliable: rigid and non-rigid registration, tomography preprocessing, low-dose restoration, segmentation, CBED and 4D-STEM preprocessing, and simulation-driven model development.
Three things NeuralSoftX does well
Robustness
Drift, non-rigid motion, low dose, scan artefacts, and scarce labels are the norm in industrial acquisition — not edge cases. NeuralSoftX designs workflows that fail gracefully on imperfect data instead of breaking on the first artefact.
Synthetic data
When industrial labelled data is scarce, MULTEM-generated synthetic datasets make model development possible. Physics-based simulation of TEM, STEM, CBED, and EELS is the difference between "we can't build this" and "we have a baseline in weeks."
Delivery
Methods are delivered as ONNX packages, on-prem inference tools, or integrations into existing microscopy pipelines — not as a notebook the client has to rebuild. The engagement ends when the workflow runs at your site.
Sectors
How engagements work
Every engagement begins with a concrete microscopy data problem: what the instrument acquires, what's failing today, and what outcome is needed. NeuralSoftX returns with a feasibility read and a scoped proposal. Engagement shapes are usually feasibility assessment, method package, deployable inference tool, or workflow integration.
