Abstract
An example apparatus for classifying target objects using three-dimensional geometric filtering includes a patch receiver to receive patches with objects to be classified. The apparatus also includes a geometric filter to filter out patches including objects with sizes outside a target range using three dimensional geometry to generate filtered patches. The apparatus further includes a background remover to remove background pixels from the filtered patches to generate preprocessed patches. The apparatus includes a classification score calculator to calculate a classification score for each of the preprocessed patches.
