Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G

Claim 16:
17. An apparatus for correcting optical aberrations, the apparatus comprising:
one or more processors;
one or more computer-readable storage media on which computer-executable instructions are stored, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause:
one or more images to be captured by an imaging and/or image recording system, wherein one or more optical aberrations in the one or more captured images are related to at least one part of the imaging and/or image recording system;
a first neural network to be applied to the one or more captured images, wherein the neural network is configured to generate one or more corrected images from the one or more captured images, in such a way that the one or more optical aberrations are corrected or reduced in the one or more corrected images, and
a second neural network configured to be applied as a loss function for training the first neural network, wherein the loss function defines a feature restoration loss indicative of a measure of differences in image content between a target output image and an output image of the first neural network.
