1. A system, the system comprising:

at least one processor configured to:

detect, based on point cloud information, portions of a particular object;

determine, based on the detected portions, at least a first portion having a first reflectivity corresponding to a license plate, and at least two additional spaced-apart portions corresponding to locations on the particular object other than a location of the first portion, and wherein the at least two additional portions have reflectivity substantially lower than the first reflectivity; and

classify the particular object as a vehicle, based on a spatial relationship and a reflectivity relationship between the first portion and the at least two additional portions.
