TU Graz improves image processing with the help of learning: Here it is shown how the algorithm changes the images so that it finds them 'more beautiful'. Pock - TU Graz/ICG By Christoph Pelzl - Using the visual cortex as a model in the human brain, the research group led by ERC-award-winner Thomas Pock has developed new mathematical models and algorithms as the basis for faster and more intelligent image processing programs.

Pock - TU Graz/ICG Our visual cortex can capture images and recognize objects in a fraction of a second, even if they are barely visible or only fragmentary. One reason for this fantastic peak performance is the highly efficient hierarchical layer architecture of the visual cortex. It filters the visual information, recognizes connections and completes the image using familiar patterns. The process behind this is still hardly understood in its complexity.
