Identifying discrete elements of a composite object

A system comprising:

• a memory comprising computer readable instructions;
• and
• a processing device for executing the computer readable instructions for performing a method for identifying discrete elements of a composite object, the method comprising:
• identifying, by a processing device, a first discrete element of the composite object from a first image;
• identifying, by the processing device, the composite object based at least in part on the first discrete element of the composite object;
• determining, by the processing device, whether a category associated with the composite object is a category of interest;
• based at least in part on determining that the category associated with the composite object is a category of interest, increasing, by the processing device, a discrete element count;
• determining, by the processing device, whether the discrete element count meets a threshold;
• and
• based at least in part on determining that the discrete element count exceeds the threshold, performing a mitigation action.

A computer program product comprising:

• a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processing device to cause the processing device to perform a method for identifying discrete elements of a composite object, the method comprising:
• identifying, by a processing device, a first discrete element of the composite object from a first image;
• identifying, by the processing device, the composite object based at least in part on the first discrete element of the composite object;
• determining, by the processing device, whether a category associated with the composite object is a category of interest;
• based at least in part on determining that the category associated with the composite object is a category of interest, increasing, by the processing device, a discrete element count;
• determining, by the processing device, whether the discrete element count meets a threshold;
• and
• based at least in part on determining that the discrete element count exceeds the threshold, performing a mitigation action.
