Visual attention 5 concept in context uses gradient (11 ) and contrast (12) of an image (13). A pixel meeting certain criteria for gradient or contrast values may be further processed for object presence (18, 47). Limiting image processing to such regions may reduce the complexity of digitized images. Post processing (19) the outcome using morphological operations like dilation and erosion 10 appropriately may help retain some of the missed object pixels in the resultant image (20). Typically image blocks at different scales are searched for object presence. Reduced-scale search involves removing certain scales during search. As object size in image varies with its location scales within a given scale-range if searched, may lead to higher chances of object presence.
