Abstract
A platform is positioned within an environment. The platform includes an image capture system connected to a controller implementing a neural network. The neural network is trained to associate visual features within the environment with a target object utilizing a known set of input data examples and labels. The image capture system captures input images from the environment and the neural network recognizes features of one or more of the input images that at least partially match one or more of the visual features within the environment associated with the target object. The input images that contain the visual features within the environment that at least partially match the target object are labeled, a geospatial position of the target object is determined based upon pixels within the labeled input images, and a class activation map is generated, which is then communicated to a supervisory system for action.
