Devices, systems, and methods obtain respective corresponding feature-detection scores for a plurality of areas in an image; calculate respective corresponding sorting scores for at least some areas of the plurality of areas; for the at least some areas of the plurality of areas, arrange the corresponding feature-detection scores in order of the corresponding sorting scores, thereby generating an order of sorted feature-detection scores; and assign respective detection scores to the at least some areas based on the order of sorted feature-detection scores and on three or more of the following: the respective corresponding feature-detection scores of the areas, a spectral threshold, a spatial threshold, and a neighborhood kernel.
