Devices, systems, and methods obtain a region of an image; generate known-object scores for the region using known-object detectors, wherein each known-object detector of the known-object detectors detects objects in a respective object class; determine a likelihood that the region includes a complete object; and determine a likelihood that the region includes an unknown object based on the likelihood that the region includes a complete object and on the known-object scores.
