[0049] TEM generally uses a high-energy electron beam accelerated by high voltage as the incident light source. The high-energy electron beam is deflected and converged step by step by electromagnetic lenses, irradiated onto an extremely thin sample material, and different signals are obtained by using the interaction between the electron beam and the substance, such as transmitted electrons, elastic scattering and inelastic scattering electrons, characteristic X-rays, etc. These different signals can reflect the structural characteristics and physical and chemical characteristics of the material. Therefore, imaging the microstructure based on these signals can visually display the microstructure. In addition, by analyzing these signals, information such as elements, valence states, and coordination can also be obtained simultaneously. Further, combined with spherical aberration correction in the STEM mode, through a sub-atomic scale electron probe, while obtaining an atomic resolution image, atomic resolution elemental distribution and valence bond information, etc. can be obtained. Combining spherical aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) with electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) can obtain the valence states and valence bonds of atoms with different coordinations at the atomic scale. However, in order to make the high-energy electron beam have sufficient penetration ability and a shorter wavelength in order to obtain a more accurate and clear microstructure, the incident electron energy of a high-resolution electron microscope is usually 200 kV or 300 kV. For most materials with relatively strong radiation resistance such as metals, ceramics, and semiconductors, these high-energy incident electrons are helpful for detailed research on the microstructure at the atomic scale. However, there are still many important material systems with very weak radiation resistance or beam-sensitive materials, such as zeolites, MOF (metal organic framework), polymers, halide perovskites, etc. Using the above high-energy incident electrons will cause radiation damage to the materials. Therefore, for materials with very weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity, through weak light (i.e., low-energy incident electrons) collection conditions, we can reveal information such as the nano-scale chemical distribution, oxidation state, and local electronic structure of zeolites, providing important references for the development of new materials with very weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity.

[0050] For materials with very weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity currently combined in image and frequency-domain spatial image analysis, the principal component analysis method (PCA) is mainly used. PCA mainly relies on the covariance matrix to extract the principal components. However, a large amount of noise generated under weak light collection conditions will distort the calculation results of the covariance matrix, which will in turn lead to incorrect extraction of the principal components and affect the dimensionality reduction effect. When PCA attempts to capture the main features of the data by maximizing the variance, a large amount of noise also has variance and may be misinterpreted as a useful structure of the data, resulting in inaccurate principal components and inability to effectively distinguish signals from noise. That is, a poor signal-to-noise ratio of the data causes noise to interfere with the effective extraction of the original signal by PCA, distorts the data, and affects subsequent analysis and interpretation. In addition, since PCA can only capture linear relationships in the data, its effect is significantly reduced for data with complex non-linear structures. PCA projects high-dimensional data into a low-dimensional space through linear transformation, which may lead to loss of important feature information. Especially when dealing with complex structures, this information loss will directly affect the accuracy of subsequent analysis. This makes it impossible to fully reveal the true microscopic structural features when dealing with materials such as molecular sieves with very weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity. Further, because PCA is affected by all data points when calculating the principal components, outliers will cause the deviation of the principal component direction and reduce the reliability of the analysis results. In the analysis of sensitive materials such as molecular sieves, this may lead to misjudgment and incorrect interpretation. Although PCA is a powerful dimensionality reduction technique that can simplify STEM-EELS data, reduce redundant information, and improve computational efficiency, it also has some inherent drawbacks, such as limited ability to handle non-linear relationships, poor interpretability, sensitivity to outliers, high computational complexity, etc.

[0051] To solve the above problems of the existing PCA in the analysis of STEM images and EELS spectrograms for materials with very weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity, an embodiment of the present invention provides a new image reconstruction method.

[0052] The material to be analyzed involved in the embodiment of the present invention generally refers to materials with relatively weak radiation resistance or beam-sensitive porous crystalline materials, such as the above-mentioned zeolites, MOFs (metal organic frameworks), polymers, halide perovskites, etc.

[0053] The set of images collected in the STEM-EELS mode involved in the embodiment of the present invention refers to two-dimensional images collected in the STEM-EELS mode.

[0054] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Various details of the embodiments of the present invention are included to facilitate understanding, and they should be considered merely exemplary. Therefore, those of ordinary skill in the art should recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Similarly, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.

[0055] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the image reconstruction method may include the following steps:

[0056] Step S101: Correct the frequency-domain space image of the material to be analyzed, where the frequency-domain space image is obtained by performing a Fourier transform on a set of images collected from the material to be analyzed in the STEM-EELS mode.

[0057] The main process of this correction step is to select at least two diffraction spots in the frequency-domain space image of the material to be analyzed. These diffraction spots are generally formed by the core structure of the main components of the material to be analyzed, such as the lattice of molecular sieves. That is, these diffraction spots can be used as characteristic points in the frequency-domain space image, and the pixel points corresponding to these diffraction spots can be used as characteristic points in the two-dimensional image. By correcting the at least two selected diffraction spots, the characteristic points can be more accurately determined, and the correction of the characteristic points can be achieved, ensuring the accuracy of the information contained in the characteristic points. Preferably, two diffraction spots are selected in this step. Among them, a rectangular frame is drawn on one diffraction spot, and an elliptical frame is drawn on the other diffraction spot. By adjusting the frequency-domain space image, the gray value of the part located within the rectangular frame or the elliptical frame in the diffraction spot is increased, and the gray value of the edge region is decreased. The size of the rectangular frame or the diameter of the elliptical frame can be set according to the area of the diffraction spot.

[0058] Among them, the distance between any two of the at least two selected diffraction spots satisfies the law of periodic structural changes of the material to be analyzed.

[0059] Among them, specifically performing a Fourier transform on the set of images collected from the material to be analyzed in the STEM-EELS mode means performing a Fourier transform on each two-dimensional image in the set of images collected in the STEM-EELS mode to obtain the frequency-domain space image. Exemplarily, taking Figure 2 a two-dimensional image of a certain molecular sieve shown as an example, by performing a Fourier transform on the Figure 2 shown two-dimensional image, the obtained frequency-domain space image is as Figure 3 shown.

[0060] Further, before this step S101, it may also include: calibrating the camera scale in the STEM-EELS mode. Specifically, in the STEM-EELS mode, an image set of a standard sample consistent with the material type to be analyzed is collected. The two-dimensional images in the image set of the standard sample are converted into frequency-domain space images of the standard sample. Two diffraction spots are selected in the frequency-domain space image of the standard sample. One diffraction spot is calibrated and corrected using an elliptical frame, and the other diffraction spot is calibrated and corrected using a rectangular frame (i.e., an elliptical frame or a rectangular frame is drawn in the central area of the diffraction spot). By adjusting the TEM parameters, the diffraction spot is made to enter the drawn elliptical frame or rectangular frame, thereby realizing the calibration and correction of the camera scale. By calibrating and correcting the camera scale using the same type of standard sample, the interference of noise on the image set collected from the material to be analyzed in the STEM-EELS mode can be further reduced.

[0061] This step realizes the overall preliminary correction of the two-dimensional images in the image set through several diffraction spots, and all pixel points in the two-dimensional images can be retained during this correction process.

[0062] Step S102: Extract the image information of the corrected frequency-domain space image, and determine the peak position in the corrected frequency-domain space image of the material to be analyzed.

[0063] Among them, the image information mainly includes the size of the two-dimensional image, pixel values, physical sizes of pixel values, etc.

[0064] Generally speaking, porous crystalline materials generally have a periodically varying structure, and the periodic variation will be manifested as significant peaks in the frequency-domain space image. This peak corresponds to characteristic points in the image information, such as the lattice of molecular sieves. That is to say, through this step, the pixel points corresponding to the diffraction spots in the image information can be found, and the peak positions corresponding to the diffraction spots can be found from the frequency-domain space image. The pixel points corresponding to the diffraction spots and the peak positions corresponding to the diffraction spots can establish a corresponding relationship based on the diffraction spots. Among them, the peak position is essentially the position of the pixel points corresponding to the diffraction spots located based on the two-dimensional coordinate system constructed with the upper left corner of the two-dimensional image as the coordinate origin.

[0065] Step S103: Generate a coordinate transformation matrix for the image pixel points based on the extracted image information and peak position.

[0066] This step constructs a coordinate transformation matrix based on the pixel points corresponding to the diffraction spots and the peak positions corresponding to the diffraction spots, that is, constructs a coordinate transformation matrix through several key feature points (pixel points corresponding to the diffraction spots) of the two-dimensional image and the peak positions corresponding to these several key feature points. Since the accuracy of these key feature points is relatively high, and the accuracy of the peak positions corresponding to these several key feature points is also relatively high, the constructed coordinate transformation matrix can at least accurately give the coordinate transformation of the key feature points.

[0067] It should be noted that the coordinate transformation matrix in this step transforms the positions of each pixel point in the two-dimensional image from the two-dimensional coordinate system with the upper left corner of the two-dimensional image as the coordinate origin to the two-dimensional coordinate system with the center point of the two-dimensional image as the coordinate origin. During the conversion process, the positions of each pixel point are corrected synchronously.

[0068] Through the above steps S102 and S103, a new peak detection and coordinate transformation method is provided, ensuring the accurate extraction and mapping of key feature points, and laying a foundation for data reconstruction.

[0069] Step S104: Use the coordinate transformation matrix to perform image reconstruction on the image set of the material to be analyzed.

[0070] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention is based on the diffraction spots of the frequency-domain space image, corrects the frequency-domain space image, enables the diffraction spots to more accurately reflect the key feature points of the material to be analyzed, and through the peak positions in the frequency-domain space image, the position coordinates of the key feature points can be determined. Based on the position coordinates of the key feature points, a coordinate transformation matrix is generated, enabling the coordinate transformation matrix to transform each pixel point in the two-dimensional image into a new coordinate system, and by correcting the frequency-domain space image, the pixel points in the two-dimensional image can be initially corrected, and the positions of each pixel point can be further corrected during the conversion process to improve the accuracy and precision of the reconstructed image.

[0071] That is to say, Figure 1The technical solution provided by the illustrated embodiment can accurately indicate the crystal phase index of the material to be analyzed in the image of the material to be analyzed through the corrected frequency domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed. The central position of the diffraction spot or the position with the largest pixel value in the diffraction spot generally corresponds to the peak value of the corrected frequency domain spatial image. Based on this, by extracting the image information of the corrected frequency domain spatial image and the peak position in the frequency domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed, it is possible to initially locate the central position of the diffraction spot or the position with the largest pixel value in the diffraction spot and the image information of the diffraction spot in the frequency domain spatial image. Since the offset directions of the pixel points in the image set are basically the same, subsequently, based on the extracted image information and peak position, a coordinate transformation matrix is generated for the pixel points of the image, which can more accurately reflect the transformation of the pixel points of the image. Then, using the coordinate transformation matrix to perform image reconstruction on the image set of the material to be analyzed can retain as many pixel points as possible, effectively improving the resolution and accuracy of the microscopic image of materials with weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity, which is beneficial to the precise analysis of the local microscopic structure of materials with weak radiation resistance or beam sensitivity.

[0072] In addition, the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention realizes high-precision non-destructive analysis of materials under low-dose conditions, providing a reliable technical means for materials science and biological research.

[0073] Furthermore, the above image reconstruction method may further include: performing preliminary noise reduction processing on the image set of the material to be analyzed collected in the STEM-EELS mode; and performing Fourier transform on the preliminarily noise-reduced image to obtain the frequency domain spatial image corresponding to the material to be analyzed. Through the preliminary noise reduction processing, the amount of image data can be reduced and the calculation efficiency can be improved. It should be noted that this preliminary noise reduction processing mainly removes the obvious noise signals in the two-dimensional image.

[0074] In addition, the specific implementation manner of the above step S101 may include: selecting at least two diffraction spots in the frequency domain spatial image and adjusting the selected at least two diffraction spots; based on the adjusted diffraction spots, correcting the frequency domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed. It should be noted that this frequency domain spatial image is obtained by performing Fourier transform on the two-dimensional image after the above preliminary noise reduction processing. The selection and adjustment of the diffraction spots have been described in detail above and will not be elaborated here. For Figure 3 the illustrated frequency domain spatial image, the corrected frequency domain spatial image is as Figure 4 shown.

[0075] Further, the above image reconstruction method may further include: for each image pixel point related to the peak position included in the image information (i.e., the image pixel point corresponding to the diffraction spot in the frequency domain space image, it should be noted that in addition to the above selected at least two diffraction spots, the diffraction spot may also include other unselected diffraction spots), for each image pixel point, respectively construct fitting curves of the image pixel point in the x-direction and the y-direction; use the fitting curves of each image pixel point in the x-direction and the y-direction to calculate the extreme point coordinates of each image pixel point, and use the extreme point coordinates to correct the peak position; generally speaking, compared with the surrounding area of the diffraction spot, the pixel value of the diffraction spot (i.e., the core feature point of the material) is a maximum value. Based on this, by constructing the fitting curves of the image pixel point in the x-direction and the y-direction, the extreme point can be found, which is the pixel point of the diffraction spot. Correspondingly, the position coordinates corresponding to the extreme point are its true coordinate positions. Then, based on this, the peak position can be corrected using the extreme point coordinates to achieve the correction of the frequency domain space image. To improve the position accuracy of the frequency domain space image and the diffraction spot (i.e., the core feature point of the material). Correspondingly, the specific implementation manner of generating the coordinate transformation matrix for the image pixel point includes: using the corrected peak position and its corresponding image information to construct a linear coordinate transformation matrix. This coordinate transformation matrix converts each pixel point in the two-dimensional image from the current coordinate system with the upper left corner of the two-dimensional image as the coordinate origin to the coordinate system with the center point of the two-dimensional image as the coordinate origin. Before the conversion, by using the fitting curves of the image pixel point in the x-direction and the y-direction, the coordinates of the image pixel point in the original coordinate system are corrected to ensure the accuracy of the position coordinates of the image pixel point after the subsequent conversion.

[0076] Specifically, the specific implementation manner of respectively constructing the fitting curves of the image pixel point in the x-direction and the y-direction may include: finding the previous pixel point and the next pixel point of the image pixel point in the x-direction, and using the previous pixel point and the next pixel point in the x-direction and the pixel value of the image pixel point to construct a parabolic curve of the image pixel point in the x-direction; finding the previous pixel point and the next pixel point of the image pixel point in the y-direction, and using the previous pixel point and the next pixel point in the y-direction and the pixel value of the image pixel point to construct a parabolic curve of the image pixel point in the y-direction.

[0077] Exemplarily, taking Figure 2 the shown coordinate system as an example, its x-direction is the horizontal direction and the y-direction is the vertical direction. Then the previous pixel point of the image pixel point in the x-direction refers to the pixel point on the left side of the image pixel point, and the next pixel point of the image pixel point in the x-direction refers to the pixel point on the right side of the image pixel point. The parabolic curve of the image pixel point in the x-direction can be calculated by the following calculation formula (1):

[0078]

[0079] where valX i represents the x - coordinate corresponding to the i - th image pixel on the parabolic curve in the x - direction; represents the pixel value of the previous pixel of the i - th image pixel in the x - direction; represents the pixel value of the next pixel of the i - th image pixel in the x - direction; N i represents the pixel value of the i - th image pixel.

[0080] The parabolic curve of the image pixels in the y - direction can be obtained by the following calculation formula (2):

[0081]

[0082] where valY i represents the x - coordinate corresponding to the i - th image pixel on the parabolic curve in the y - direction; represents the pixel value of the previous pixel of the i - th image pixel in the y - direction; represents the pixel value of the next pixel of the i - th image pixel in the y - direction; N i represents the pixel value of the i - th image pixel.

[0083] Among them, the coordinates of the extreme value of the pixel value corresponding to the image pixels in the x - direction can be obtained by the following calculation formula (3).

[0084]

[0085] where X i represents the x - coordinate value of the precise extreme value after correcting the i - th image pixel; x i represents the x - coordinate value of the i - th image pixel; x i-1 represents the x - coordinate value of the previous pixel of the i - th image pixel; x i+1 represents the x - coordinate value of the next pixel of the i - th image pixel. It should be noted that the y - coordinates of the image pixel corresponding to the x - direction and its previous and next pixels are the same, and the x - coordinates are different.

[0086] Among them, the coordinates of the extreme value of the pixel value corresponding to the image pixels in the y - direction can be obtained by the following calculation formula (4).

[0087]

[0088] where Y i represents the y - coordinate value of the precise extreme value after correcting the i - th image pixel; yi represents the y - coordinate value of the i - th image pixel; y i-1 represents the y - coordinate value of the previous pixel of the i - th image pixel; y i+1 represents the y - coordinate value of the next pixel of the i - th image pixel. It should be noted that for the image pixels in the y - direction, their x - coordinates are the same as those of their previous and next pixels, while the y - coordinates are different.

[0089] By using the above - mentioned calculation formulas (1) and (2), two extreme points corresponding to the i - th image pixel are found (the extreme point in the x - direction and the extreme point in the y - direction). Among them, the ordinate of the extreme point in the x - direction corresponding to the i - th image pixel is the ordinate of the i - th image pixel, and the abscissa is calculated by the above - mentioned calculation formula (3); the abscissa of the extreme point in the y - direction corresponding to the i - th image pixel is the abscissa of the i - th image pixel, and the ordinate of the extreme point in the y - direction is calculated by the above - mentioned calculation formula (4). Taking the two extreme points as subsequent feature points effectively expands the feature points and makes the constructed coordinate transformation matrix more accurate.

[0090] Among them, the exact extreme value after correcting the i - th image pixel and the exact extreme value after correcting the i - th image pixel are obtained, which are the extreme values of the pixel values of the image pixel. Then, the coordinate position corresponding to this extreme value is the exact coordinate position of the accurately located feature point.

[0091] In addition, the above process is essentially to extract the feature points with physical significance in the STEM - EELS data. It is directly related to the actual microstructure, provides higher interpretability and physical connection, helps to deeply understand and analyze the microstructure of materials, and has more practical application value especially in materials science research. And by extracting the feature points with physical significance in the STEM - EELS data, the most important structural information in the data is retained. It retains more microscopic structural details by optimizing the data reconstruction process, especially having obvious advantages in features at smaller scales such as pore structures.

[0092] More specifically, using the corrected peak position and its corresponding image information, the specific implementation of constructing the linear coordinate transformation matrix may include: taking the central position of the frequency - domain space image as the coordinate origin and translating the pixel points of the corrected peak position; using the original coordinate value of the peak position and the coordinate value of the peak position in the coordinate system with the central position of the frequency - domain space image as the coordinate origin to generate the coordinate transformation matrix.

[0093] The specific implementation for the pixel points of the translated and corrected peak position may include: calculating the coordinate transformation parameters and using the calculated coordinate transformation parameters to determine the coordinate value of the peak position in the coordinate system with the central position of the image as the coordinate origin.

[0094] Among them, the coordinate transformation parameters can be calculated using the following calculation formula group (5).

[0095]

[0096] Among them, dx1, dy1, dx2 and dy2 represent the coordinate transformation parameters; k2 represents the scaling parameter of the transformed image in the x direction; k1 represents the scaling parameter of the original image in the x direction; h1 represents the scaling parameter of the original image in the y direction; h2 represents the scaling parameter of the transformed image in the y direction.

[0097] More specifically, the coordinate values of the peak positions in the coordinate system with the center position of the image as the coordinate origin can be calculated using the following calculation formula group (6).

[0098]

[0099] Among them, dx1, dy1, dx2 and dy2 represent the coordinate transformation parameters; (x1′, y1′) and (x2′, y2′) respectively represent the coordinates after transformation of two characteristic pixel points (i.e., two peak positions) in the frequency domain space image; sx represents the width of the frequency domain space image in the x direction; sy represents the height of the frequency domain space image in the y direction.

[0100] By substituting the coordinates of the pixel points of the multiple peak positions after translational correction and the coordinates before translation into the following calculation formula (7), the coordinate transformation matrix parameters a, b, c, d, e, f are calculated.

[0101]

[0102] Among them, represents the coordinates after translation of the pixel points of the peak positions after translational correction (i.e., extreme points); represents the coordinates before translation of the pixel points of the peak positions after correction (i.e., extreme points);

[0103] Subsequently, based on the coordinate transformation matrix parameters a, b, c, d, e, f and the coordinates before translation of the pixel points in the two-dimensional image, the coordinates of the pixel points after translation can be obtained, thereby realizing the reconstruction of the two-dimensional image.

Adjust the diffraction spots based on the elliptical and rectangular regions to correct the frequency domain space image corresponding to the standard sample.

[0110] Step S505: Calibrate the TEM camera scale using a standard sample of the same type as the material to be analyzed.

[0111] Step S506: Based on the calibrated TEM camera scale, collect the image set of the material to be analyzed in the STEM-EELS mode.

[0113] Step S508: Perform Fourier transform on the preliminarily noise-reduced image set of the material to be analyzed to obtain the frequency domain space image corresponding to the material to be analyzed.

[0114] Step S509: Correct the frequency domain space image of the material to be analyzed.

[0115] Step S510: Extract the image information of the corrected frequency domain space image of the material to be analyzed, and in the corrected frequency domain space image of the material to be analyzed, find the peak value and the corresponding coordinates of the diffraction spots included in the corrected frequency domain space image of the material to be analyzed.

[0116] Step S511: For the image pixel points related to the peak position included in the image information, respectively construct fitting curves of the image pixel points in the x direction and the y direction.

[0117] Step S512: Use the fitting curves of each image pixel point in the x direction and the y direction to calculate the extreme point coordinates of each image pixel point, and use the extreme point coordinates to correct the peak position.

[0118] Step S513: Take the center position of the frequency domain space image as the coordinate origin, and translate the pixel points of the corrected peak position.

[0119] Step S514: Generate a coordinate transformation matrix by using the original coordinate values of the peak position and the coordinate values of the peak position in the coordinate system with the center position of the frequency-domain space image as the coordinate origin.

[0120] Step S515: Use the coordinate transformation matrix to perform image reconstruction on the image set of the material to be analyzed.

Among them, the names of these modules or units do not constitute a limitation to the module itself in some cases. For example, the correction unit can also be described as "a unit or module for correcting the frequency-domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed".

[0148] As another aspect, the present invention also provides a computer-readable medium. The computer-readable medium can be included in the device described in the above embodiments; or it can exist alone without being assembled into the device. The above computer-readable medium carries one or more programs.

[0149] According to the technical solution of the embodiments of the present invention, by correcting the frequency-domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed, the corrected frequency-domain spatial image can accurately indicate the feature points and main components of the image of the material to be analyzed through diffraction spots. Generally, the feature points correspond to the peaks in the frequency-domain spatial image. Based on this, by extracting the image information of the corrected frequency-domain spatial image and the peak positions in the frequency-domain spatial image of the material to be analyzed, the positions of the diffraction spots and the image information of the diffraction spots in the frequency-domain spatial image can be preliminarily located. Since the offset directions of the individual pixel points in the set of images are basically the same, subsequently, based on the extracted image information and peak positions, a coordinate transformation matrix is generated for the image pixel points, which can more accurately reflect the transformation of the image pixel points. Then, using the coordinate transformation matrix to perform image reconstruction on the set of images of the material to be analyzed can retain as many image pixel points as possible, effectively improving the resolution and accuracy of the microscopic images of materials with weak radiation resistance or beam-sensitive materials, and facilitating the precise analysis of the local microscopic structure of materials with weak radiation resistance or beam-sensitive materials.

Through non-linear feature extraction, the microscopic structural features in image data can be revealed more accurately. Especially in complex materials such as molecular sieves, more complex structures and relationships can be identified, providing more accurate analysis results, and can effectively improve the resolution and accuracy of images, avoiding the limitations of processing non-linear data.

[0151] Furthermore, the features obtained by the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present invention are easier to understand and can be directly associated with physical phenomena (such as the lattice structure of materials, energy loss, etc.). It can directly compare with the actual microscopic structure by extracting the feature points with physical significance in STEM-EELS data, providing higher interpretability and physical connection, which helps to deeply understand and analyze the microscopic structure of materials, especially in the research of materials science, it has more practical application value.

[0152] Furthermore, the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present invention retains the key features in the STEM-EELS image data and retains the most important structural information in the data.
