Abstract
Systems and methods for object detection. The methods include, by a computing device: obtaining a plurality of intensity values denoting at least a difference in a first location of at least one object in a first image and a second location of the at least one object in a second image; converting the intensity values to 3D position values; inputting the 3D position values into a classifier algorithm to obtain classifications for data points of a 3D point cloud (each of the classifications comprising a foreground classification or a background classification); and using the classifications to detect at least one object which is located in a foreground or a background.
