Abstract

A method for detecting at least one linear object in an input image is disclosed. The input image, and/or an extract of the input image, is fed to an image classifier, which classifies specified regions of the input image or extract in each case at least into relevant regions, the center of which lies in fairly close proximity to the center point of at least one linear object passing at least partially through this region, and background regions where this is not the case. For the relevant regions, coordinates are acquired from a regression which indicate at least one local course of the linear object in the relevant regions. From these coordinates, the course of the linear object is evaluated in the entire input image.
