First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for resolving an alarm raised by an imaging system, the alarm triggered by an alarm target including a plurality of objects, said method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of images from the imaging system;
calculating at least one feature value for each object of the plurality of objects;
determining whether each object is part of the alarm target; and
rendering a decision on the alarm target.

Abstract
Systems and methods for classifying targets within a container are provided. In one aspect, a method for resolving an alarm raised by an imaging system is provided, the imaging system alarm triggered by an alarm target including a plurality of objects. The method includes receiving a plurality of images from the imaging system, calculating at least one feature value for each object of the plurality of objects, determining whether each object is part of the alarm target, and rendering a decision on the alarm target.

8. A post-detection classification system for use with an imaging system comprising a detection component configured to raise an alarm for an alarm target comprising a plurality of objects, said post-detection classification system configured to determine whether the plurality of objects are part of the alarm target, said post-detection classification system comprising:
-
a memory electrically connected to a system bus; and at least one processor electrically coupled to said system bus, said at least one processor configured to communicate with said memory, said post-detection classification system further configured to; receive a plurality of images from the imaging system; store the received images in said memory; calculate at least one feature value for each object of the plurality of objects using a plurality of image elements associated with each object; determine whether each object is part of the alarm target; and render a decision on the alarm target. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method for separating a false alarm from a true alarm, the alarm triggered by an alarm object, said method comprising:
-
receiving a plurality of images from an imaging system, the imaging system having raised the alarm; calculating a plurality of feature values for each object of the plurality of objects using a plurality of image elements associated with each object; comparing at least one feature value of the plurality of feature values calculated for a first object of the plurality of objects with the at least one feature value of the plurality of feature values calculated for at least a second object of the plurality of objects; and rendering a decision on the alarm target. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
