Abstract
A microscope system includes a microscope, a digital camera configured to image an object through the microscope, and a processor. The processor is configured to perform scene recognition based on an image of the object obtained by the digital camera, using a machine learning model that has learned a plurality of scenes, to perform scene determination based on a result of the scene recognition, to temporally stabilize a result of the scene determination, and to change settings of the digital camera based on the result of the scene determination.
Claims17
A microscope system comprising:
- a microscope;
- a digital camera configured to image an object through the microscope;
- and
- a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
- perform scene recognition based on an image of the object obtained by the digital camera, using a machine learning model that has learned a plurality of scenes;
- calculate, as postprocessing on a result of the scene recognition, a cumulative recognition result that is an accumulated recognition result in a period corresponding to a plurality of frames based on a plurality of results of the scene recognition corresponding to the plurality of frames;
- perform scene determination based on the cumulative recognition result;
- temporally stabilize a result of the scene determination;
- and
- change settings of the digital camera based on the result of the scene determination.
A setting changing method causing a computer to execute processes comprising:
- performing scene recognition based on an image of an object obtained by a digital camera configured to image the object through a microscope, using a machine learning model that has learned a plurality of scenes;
- calculating, as postprocessing on a result of the scene recognition, a cumulative recognition result that is an accumulated recognition result in a period corresponding to a plurality of frames based on a plurality of results of the scene recognition corresponding to the plurality of frames;
- performing scene determination based on the cumulative recognition result;
- temporally stabilizing a result of the scene determination;
- and
- changing settings of the digital camera based on the result of the scene determination.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a program thereon, the program being executable to control a computer to execute processes comprising:
- performing scene recognition based on an image of an object obtained by a digital camera configured to image the object through a microscope, using a machine learning model that has learned a plurality of scenes;
- calculating, as postprocessing on a result of the scene recognition, a cumulative recognition result that is an accumulated recognition result in a period corresponding to a plurality of frames based on a plurality of results of the scene recognition corresponding to the plurality of frames;
- performing scene determination based on the cumulative recognition result;
- temporally stabilizing a result of the scene determination;
- and
- changing settings of the digital camera based on the result of the scene determination.
A digital camera comprising:
- an image sensor configured to image an object through a microscope;
- and
- a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
- perform scene recognition based on an image of the object generated by processing an output from the image sensor, using a machine learning model that has learned a plurality of scenes;
- calculate, as postprocessing on a result of the scene recognition, a cumulative recognition result that is an accumulated recognition result in a period corresponding to a plurality of frames based on a plurality of results of the scene recognition corresponding to the plurality of frames;
- perform scene determination based on the cumulative recognition result;
- temporally stabilize a result of the scene determination;
- and
- change settings of the digital camera based on the result of the scene determination.
