Deep Learning can learn complex properties from image datasets, which are difficult to model with traditional machine vision algorithms, inherently in the form of disentangled latent spaces. With latent spaces of Generative AI models, a feature extraction method to access these properties can be implemented. This work evaluates whether the learned properties can be measured in the latent space. Quantity and quantity-value scale properties and the measurability of the dimensional quality characteristic ‘filling degree’ using a linear calibration function are demonstrated for an industrial machine vision application. An uncertainty indicator between 0.4–0.9 mm is estimated for the latent space measurements.
