Abstract: The techniques described herein relate to computerized methods and apparatuses for detecting objects in an image. The techniques described herein further relate to computerized methods and apparatuses for detecting one or more objects using a pre-trained machine learning model and one or more other machine learning models that can be trained in a field training process. The pre-trained machine learning model may be a deep machine learning model.

Abstract: This invention overcomes disadvantages of the prior art by providing a vision system and method of use, and graphical user interface (GUI), which employs a camera assembly having an on-board processor of low to modest processing power. At least one vision system tool analyzes image data, and generates results therefrom, based upon a deep learning process. A training process provides training image data to a processor remote from the on-board processor to cause generation of the vision system tool therefrom, and provides a stored version of the vision system tool for runtime operation on the on-board processor. The GUI allows manipulation of thresholds applicable to the vision system tool and refinement of training of the vision system tool by the training process. A scoring process allows unlabeled images from a set of acquired and/or stored images to be selected automatically for labelling as training images using a computed confidence score.
