Abstract

A method for an object of interest in a degraded 2D digital image of the object is provided. The method includes the following steps: detecting, beforehand, the object of interest in a 2D digital image and assigning it a label; reconstructing a 3D volume of the object thus labeled from a plurality of available 2D digital images of the object of interest; storing, in a database, a record relating to the object thus reconstructed in 3D form and labeled; for each record thus stored, generating a new plurality of 2D digital images according to a plurality of viewing modes from the thus reconstructed 3D volume of each object; training a neural network on a learning set composed of an expanded set of 2D digital images thus generated and corresponding with the label of the object of interest to be recognized; from a degraded 2D digital image of the object of interest to be recognized; using the neural network thus trained to deliver as output the label of the object and a confidence index linked to the recognition of the object of interest.
