Abstract

Systems () and methods () for efficient feature data analysis. The methods involve: determining a first number of screen pages needed to verify that each of a plurality of clusters of detected features comprises only detected features which were correctly identified during feature extraction/detection operations as being of the same feature class as a selected feature of an image; determining a second number of screen pages needed to verify that each of a plurality of singular detected features was correctly identified during the feature extraction/detection operations as being of the same feature class as the selected feature of the image; selecting one of a plurality of different validation processes based on values of the first number of screen pages and the second number of screen pages; and performing the selected validation process to verify that each of the detected features does not constitute a false positive.
