According to one implementation, a system for performing automated salience assessment of pixel anomalies includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the software code to analyze an image for a presence of a pixel anomaly in the image, obtain a salience criteria for the image when the analysis of the image detects the presence of the pixel anomaly, and classify the pixel anomaly as one of a salient anomaly or an innocuous anomaly based on the salience criteria for the image. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the software code to disregard the pixel anomaly when the pixel anomaly is classified as an innocuous anomaly, and to flag the pixel anomaly when the pixel anomaly is classified as a salient anomaly.
