  • Patent number: 11815468
    Abstract: An image restoration apparatus includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a mask image generated by masking, by a mask region, a predetermined region of an article image in which an article is imaged; and an image output unit that outputs a restored image corresponding to the mask image acquired by the image acquisition unit by using a restorer pre-trained by machine learning so as to output the restored image, which is restored from the mask image to reproduce the article image in a pseudo manner, according to an input of the mask image.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10788430
    Abstract: A surface inspection apparatus includes: an inspection pattern forming unit that forms inspection patterns; a projection unit that projects the inspection patterns onto an inspection target object; a captured image acquiring unit that acquires captured images of the inspection target object; an edge extraction image creating unit that extracts edges from captured images, and creates edge extraction images; a correction coefficient setting unit that sets a correction coefficient for correcting intensities of edges in the edge extraction image; an intensity correcting unit that corrects the intensities of the edges; a corrected edge extraction image creating unit that creates corrected edge extraction images; an integrated image creating unit that creates a single integrated image by integrating the brightness values at the same position of the inspection target object; and a determination unit that determines the presence or absence of unevenness on a surface of the inspection target object.
