Abstract
An improvement to automatic classifying of threat level of objects in CT scan images of container content, methods include automatic identification of non-classifiable threat level object images, and displaying on a display of an operator a de-cluttered image, to improve operator efficiency. The de-cluttered image includes, as subject images, the non-classifiable threat level object images. Improvement to resolution of non-classifiable threat objects includes computer-directed prompts for the operator to enter information regarding the subject image and, based on same, identifying the object type. Improvement to automatic classifying of threat levels includes incremental updating the classifying, using the determined object type and the threat level of the object type.
