Abstract
A method includes obtaining a series of images of a rotating target object through multiple revolutions of the target object. The method includes grouping the images into multiple, different sets of images. The images in each of the different sets depict a common portion of the target object. At least some of the images in each set are obtained during a different revolution of the target object. The method further includes examining the images in at least a first set of the multiple sets of images using an artificial neural network for automated object-of-interest recognition by the artificial neural network.
