Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system provides a labelled training dataset. At least one sub-object or component is selected in a CAD model of an object comprising a plurality of sub-objects or components. A plurality of different render images is generated and the different render images contain the at least one selected sub-object or component. The different render images are labelled on the basis of the CAD model to provide a training dataset based on the labelled render images. Also, a computer-implemented method provides a trained function that is trained on the training dataset. A computer-implemented image recognition method uses such the trained function. An image recognition system comprising an image capture device and a data processing system carries out the image recognition method. A computer program comprises instructions that cause the system to carry out the methods.
