Abstract

A system and method for classifying compartments at a security checkpoint includes classifying a compartment into a first category or a second category using a first stage neural network that analyzes a three-dimensional representation of the compartment extracted from an imaging device coupled to the computing system, and in response to classifying the compartment into the second category, screening the compartment using a second stage neural network that performs image segmentation to isolate a hazardous object present in the compartment.
