A method, system and computer program product for improving photographic results by composition analysis using deep-learning neural networks, by: detecting one or more objects in a camera view; classifying the objects to make one or more composition recommendations; and displaying the composition recommendations in the camera view, wherein the camera view is aligned with one of the composition recommendations to take a picture.

Photographic results by composition analysis using deep learning neural networks

Scheduling automated visual inspection tasks includes capturing an image of a component to be inspected. A visual inspection model is formed with a model engine as a composite model of utility modules and functional modules to perform visual inspection of the image of the component. An abstract processing workflow of the visual inspection model is derived with a scheduler including dependencies between the utility modules and the functional modules. Performance of each of the functional modules is profiled with the scheduler by testing performance with available hardware resources to produce a performance profile. Parallel instances of each of the functional modules in a branch of the abstract processing workflow are scheduled with the scheduler according to the dependencies and the performance profiles. An indication of defects in the component is produced by processing the visual inspection model according to the scheduled functional modules.
