In a pattern recognition apparatus, a local area recognition module is constructed with operation elements having predetermined operation characteristics. Pattern data of a predetermined size in input data is acquired by time-sequentially performing inputting process at a plurality of times via a local area scanning unit, and information indicating the position of pattern data in the input data is output. The local area recognition module detects a feature of a predetermined middle-order or high-order category from the pattern data. A consolidation module time-sequentially consolidates outputs from the local area recognition module on the basis of the position information and the category of the feature thereby producing feature detection map information. A judgment unit outputs position information and category information of a high-order feature present in the input data, on the basis of the output from the time-sequential consolidation module.

A device for detecting the positional relationship between first and second objects in a predetermined direction includes a light source for emitting light in a direction to the first or second object, and a first detecting portion for detecting the position of incidence of a first light deflected by the first and second objects, wherein the position of incidence of the first light upon the first detecting portion is changeable with a change in the positional relationship between the first and second objects in the predetermined direction. A second detecting portion detects the position of incidence of a second light deflected by at least one of the first and second objects, wherein the state of the position of incidence of the second light resulting from a change in the positional relationship between the first and second objects, in the predetermined direction differs from that of the first light. On the basis of the detection by the first and second detecting portions, the positional relationship between the first and second objects is detected without being affected by an inclination thereof.

Disclosed is a method of detecting relative positional deviation of a first object with a first grating pattern having an optical power and a second object with a second grating mark having an optical power. Light diffracted by both the first and second grating marks forms a light pattern on a predetermined plane; wherein different diffraction beams of the light diffracted by both the first and second grating marks are displaceable along the predetermined plane in accordance with the relative positional deviation of the first and second objects, in the same direction and by substantially the same quantity; and the relative positional deviation of the first and second objects is detected on the basis of the position of the light pattern on the predetermined plane.

An image recognition apparatus is provided which comprises a first extracting means for extracting, from every registration image previously registered, a set of registration partial images of a predetermined size, and a second extracting means for extracting, from an input new image, a set of new partial images of a predetermined size. The apparatus further comprises a discriminating means for discriminating an attribute of the new partial image based on a rule formed by dividing the set of the registration partial images extracted by the first extracting means, and a collecting means for deriving a final recognition result of the new image by collecting discrimination results by the discriminating means at the time when the new partial images as elements of the set of the new partial images are input.
