Claim 0:
1. A method for detecting unrecognized objects in a target stack, the method comprising:
receiving image data representative of one or more unrecognized objects in the target stack;
identifying an unexplained region of the image data based on a comparison with an object set of registered objects;
identifying one or more layers corresponding to objects in the target stack within the unexplained region;
identifying exposed edges representing boundaries of the one or more layers corresponding to objects in the target stack, wherein depth measures deviate across horizontally adjacent locations;
identifying one or more exposed corners of the one or more layers corresponding to objects in the target stack based on the exposed edges;
deriving a minimum viable region (MVR) based on the exposed edges and the one or more exposed corners;
determining a number of the one or more exposed corners associated with the derived MVR;
detecting an unrecognized object according to the MVR and the number of the one or more exposed corners associated with the derived MVR; and
registering the unrecognized object by updating the object set to include at least one of the MVR and a processing result thereof.
