Abstract: A method and apparatus for sorting is described, and which includes providing a product stream formed of individual objects of interest having feature aspects which can be detected; generating multiple images of each of the respective objects of interest; classifying the feature aspects of the objects of interest; identifying complementary images by analyzing some of the multiplicity of images; fusing the complementary images to form an aggregated region representation of the complementary images; and sorting the respective objects of interest based at least in part upon the aggregated region representation which is formed.
