Deep Learning
What Is Deep Learning?
Deep learning refers to a subset of machine learning where artificial neural networks with multiple processing layers automatically learn hierarchical data representations. Unlike traditional algorithms requiring manual feature engineering, NYRIS's deep learning systems extract 2,000+ visual characteristics directly from raw images, including geometric patterns, material textures, and spatial relationships.
Analyze Your Use Case
NYRIS employs deep learning to power its synthetic data pipeline, converting CAD models into photorealistic training images that simulate real-world conditions like partial occlusion or weathering. This approach reduced data preparation costs by 85% for automotive partners like Daimler.
How NYRIS’s Deep Learning Works
NYRIS's implementation combines three technological innovations:
- Multi-Modal Input Processing: The system simultaneously analyzes visual data (product images), textual metadata (part numbers), and geometric information (CAD models) using hybrid neural architectures. This cross-modal learning enables recognition of industrial components from incomplete visual data, achieving 98.3% accuracy in field trials with DMG Mori.
- Synthetic Data Augmentation: A generative adversarial network (GAN) creates 250,000+ variations from a single CAD model, simulating different lighting conditions, surface wear patterns, and environmental factors. This synthetic training dataset reduced image capture costs by €2.3 million annually for manufacturing clients.
- Hierarchical Feature Compression: Proprietary quantization techniques compress neural networks by 78% without accuracy loss, enabling real-time inference on edge devices. Deployed in TRUMPF's factory monitoring systems, these optimized models process 50,000 images/hour using standard IoT hardware.
