Abstract
A method for distinguishing different configuration states of an object based on an image representation of the object involves acquiring original image data representing an original image comprising a picture of the object; detecting the object within the original image; determining an orientation of the detected object; determining a region-of-interest within the original image representing the picture of the object at least in parts; generating normalized image data representing a two-dimensional normalized image by transforming the ROI of the original image based on the determined orientation of the object to a reference frame in which the ROI is represented by the normalized image with a predefined standard orientation and scaling; extracting characteristic features of the object as represented by the normalized image data; and classifying the extracted characteristic features to determine a specific configuration state of the object associated with the classification.
