Abstract
Detection inputs are classified using two thresholds. In a preferred embodiment, a multiplicity of inputs are scored and the scored inputs are searched to locate an input that has a score greater than a first threshold. If such input is found, every input having a score in excess of a second threshold lower than the first threshold is identified as belonging to a first class of interest. If no input is found having a score in excess of the first threshold, no inputs are identified as belonging to the first class.
