    Abstract: A computer implemented method for detecting foam on the surface of a liquid medium contained in a vessel is described. The method including the steps of receiving a sample image of at least a portion of the vessel comprising the liquid-gas interface and classifying the sample image between a first class and at least one second class, associated with different amounts of foam on the surface of the liquid. The classifying is performed by a deep neural network classifier that has been trained using a plurality of training images of at least a portion of a vessel comprising a liquid-gas interface. The plurality of training images may comprise at least some images that differ from each other by one or more of: the location of the liquid-gas interface on the image, the polar and/or azimuthal angle at which the liquid- gas interface is viewed on the image, and the light intensity or colour temperature of the one or more light sources that illuminated the imaged portion of the vessel when the image was acquired. Related methods for controlling a bioprocess, for providing a tool, and related systems and computer software products are also described.

    Abstract: The present description relates to computer-implemented monitoring of monoclonal quality of cell growth, which is specifically applicable for the development of cell lines for the manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals. In one aspect a computer-implemented method is provided comprising: acquiring (ST10) a sequence of images (10) of a cell culture taken at different times during cell growth; processing (ST20) each image in the sequence of images to identify cell locations of cells in the cell culture; determining (ST40) for at least some of the images in the sequence of images the number of cells from the identified cell locations; determining (ST30) for at least one image in the sequence of images a spatial distribution of cells from the identified cell locations; evaluating compliance of the determined numbers of cells and the determined spatial distribution of cells with predetermined evaluation conditions being characteristic of monoclonal growth; and assessing and outputting a monoclonal quality indicator based on the evaluated compliance with the predetermined evaluation conditions.
