In a method for processing microscope images, at least one microscope image is provided as input image for an image processing algorithm. An output image is created from the input image by means of the image processing algorithm. The creation of the output image comprises adding low-frequency components for representing solidity of image structures of the input image to the input image, wherein the low-frequency components at least depend on high-frequency components of these image structures and wherein high-frequency components are defined by a higher spatial frequency than low-frequency components. A corresponding computer program and microscope system are likewise described.

A method of inspecting images on printed products by a computer in a printing machine. Printed products are recorded and digitized by an image sensor of an image inspection system in the course of the image inspection process, and the computer compares them to a digital reference image. If deviations are found, the defective printed products are removed. The computer analyzes the deviations found in the course of the image inspection process together with further data from other system parts and from the machine, determines specific defect classes and the causes thereof based on the defects by machine learning processes, assigns the defects found in the image inspection process to the defect classes in a corresponding way, and displays the classified detected defects with their defect classes and causes to an operator of the machine so that the operator can initiate specific measures to eliminate the defect causes.

A method for ascertaining a depth information image for an input image. The input image is processed using a convolutional neural network, which includes multiple layers that sequentially process the input image, and each converts an input feature map into an output feature map. At least one of the layers is a depth map layer, the depth information image being ascertained as a function of a depth map layer. In the depth map layer, an input feature map of the depth map layer is convoluted with multiple scaling filters to obtain respective scaling maps, the multiple scaling maps are compared pixel by pixel to generate a respective output feature map in which each pixel corresponds to a corresponding pixel from a selected one of the scaling maps.

A method for quality inspection of laser material processing includes performing laser material processing on a workpiece and generating, by a sensor, raw image data of secondary emissions during the laser material processing of the workpiece. The method also includes determining a quality of the laser material processing by analyzing the raw image data of the secondary emissions.

Embodiments described herein provide various examples of a machine-learning-based visual-haptic system for constructing visual-haptic models for various interactions between surgical tools and tissues. In one aspect, a process for constructing a visual-haptic model is disclosed. This process can begin by receiving a set of training videos. The process then processes each training video in the set of training videos to extract one or more video segments that depict a target tool-tissue interaction from the training video, wherein the target tool-tissue interaction involves exerting a force by one or more surgical tools on a tissue. Next, for each video segment in the set of video segments, the process annotates each video image in the video segment with a set of force levels predefined for the target tool-tissue interaction. The process subsequently trains a machine-learning model using the annotated video images to obtain a trained machine-learning model for the target tool-tissue interaction.

A control device controls sectors for the assembly of turbine stators of a turbine. Each turbine stator is formed of an assembly of sectors juxtaposed to one another, and each sector has a reference. The control device includes an automated system for identifying the sector with means for reading the sector reference, a database of the references of the sectors that form the turbine stators of the turbine, and means for associating the read reference of the sector with a determined turbine stator of the turbine.
