Vision Processing - Target Recognition

What are some approaches to target recognition that FRC uses? That is, what is the algorithm teams use to recognize the vision target in the image?

CHS Robotics used a jury-rigged system with the NI Vision Library to look at rectangles and sizes to identify targets in 2012. I later personally wrote another algorithm that did pattern recognition on the corners of the targets. At UCSD, I'm now working with a project that uses a biologically inspired discriminant saliency algorithm for target acquisition and recognition. Are the approaches just as varied and complex in FRC?
