US 12,638,400 B2 · Method for monitoring and/or controlling phase separation in chemical processes and samples

Abstract

The present invention relates to determining phase information of a fluid sample. At least one image of the fluid sample including the phase information of the fluid sample is provided. Additionally, a data driven model which comprises at least one output channel for the phase information is provided. The at least one output channel includes at least one output channel for classifying a boundary between two phases of the fluid sample, such that the phase information includes information about a property of the boundary between the two phases, such as a height, a volume, a type, or a strength of the boundary. The phase information of the fluid sample is derived based on the data driven model and the at least one image of the fluid sample including the phase information of the fluid sample.
