1. A method for identification, sorting and ranking detections of one or more targets, the method comprising: determining with a target detection processing apparatus a target detection score for each pixel in each of one or more images for each of one or more targets; identifying with the target detection processing apparatus a region around one or more of the pixels with the determined detection scores which are higher than the determined detection scores for the remaining pixels in each of the one or more of images; determining with the target detection processing apparatus an object-based score for each of the identified regions in each of the one or more images; and providing with the target detection processing apparatus the one or more identified regions with the determined object-based score for each region.
