Abstract

A gemstone detection method is provided and includes using a camera to generate a set of training pictures illustrating three-dimensional features of a gemstone cut with a pattern. Each training picture in the set of training pictures includes facets of and inclusions within the gemstone visible along a point-of-view (POV) through the gemstone. The gemstone detection method further includes generating a trained neural network by training an untrained neural network using the set of training pictures and a set of training sketches of edges of the facets of the gemstone generated from the set of training pictures and using the trained neural network to iteratively generate machine-generated drawings from the set of training pictures. Each of the machine-generated drawings identifies edges of the facets of the gemstone. In addition, the gemstone detection method includes combining the set of machine-generated drawings into a three-dimensional model.
