Described is determining defects of an object produced using an additive manufacturing process, including: determining spatially resolved first data relating to n objects, the first data defines a process coordinate system for each of the n objects, determining measurement data relating to the n objects by imaging the n objects, the measurement data defines, for each of the n objects, an object representation in a measurement coordinate system, determining which coordinates of at least one section of the measurement coordinate system are defect coordinates assigned to a defect in the object representation; correlating the at least one section with a corresponding section of the process coordinate system in order to collect training data, training an adaptive algorithm for determining defect coordinates in spatially resolved data, by means of the training data, determining spatially resolved second data, and analysing the second data for defects by means of the adaptive algorithm.
