Abstract
A method including detecting, in a digital image, a set of sub-images matching a selected object type. The method also includes generating a first confidence score that a first sub-image in set of sub-images matches a selected object type. The method also includes generating a second confidence score that a second sub-image in set of sub-images matches the selected object type. The method also includes generating a similarity measure by comparing the first sub-image to the second sub-image. The method also includes removing, responsive to the similarity measure exceeding a similarity threshold value and the first confidence score exceeding the second confidence score, the second sub-image from the set of sub-images. The method also includes processing, after removing, the digital image using the set of sub-images.
