Abstract

A method of detecting an object in image data that is deemed to be a threat includes annotating sections of at least one training image to indicate whether each section is a component of the object, encoding a pattern grammar describing the object using a plurality of first order logic based predicate rules, training distinct component detectors to each identify a corresponding one of the components based on the annotated training images, processing image data with the component detectors to identify at least one of the components, and executing the rules to detect the object based on the identified components.
