Abstract: An image capturing device, configured to illuminate an object by an illumination means and capture reflected light from the object as a reflection image by a capturing means, includes an irradiation angle range determination means. The irradiation angle range determination means determines, assuming that a group of pieces of unevenness existing at the same position on the surfaces of a plurality of individuals of an object is an unevenness group, an irradiation angle range for irradiating the object by the illumination means, on the basis of a statistic value of the inclination angles of the unevenness group in which variations in the inclination angles of the unevenness between individuals is larger than other unevenness groups, among the plurality of unevenness groups.

Abstract: An object management system includes an acquisition means for acquiring an image in which a surface of a registration target object, having a circle and a handwritten character drawn thereon, is captured, a generation means for detecting an ellipse corresponding to the circle from the image and generating a registration image in which the image is applied with projective transformation such that the ellipse becomes a circle, and a registration means for writing the registration image into a storage means as data for determining the sameness of the registration target object.

Abstract: A surface property estimation system includes an image acquisition means for acquiring an image of a surface of an object, an estimation means for estimating a surface property from the acquired image by using an estimation model obtained through machine learning with use of an image of a surface of an object and a surface property shown by the image as training data, an extraction means for extracting, from the acquired image, a feature amount unique to the image, and a registration means for storing the estimated surface property and the extracted feature amount in a storage means in association with each other.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an information processing device used in an image capture device that illuminates an object with an illuminating unit and images light reflected from the object as a reflection image with an imaging unit. The information processing device includes an irradiation angle determining unit configured to determine an irradiation angle when the illuminating unit illuminates the object based on a tilt statistic that is a value corresponding to tilt distribution of irregularities formed on the surface of the object.

Abstract: An individual identification system includes an acquiring means and a determining means. The acquiring means is configured to acquire a matched image obtained by shooting part of a predetermined region of a matching target object. The determining means is configured to calculate a score representing a degree to which a partial image similar to the matched image exists in a registration image obtained by shooting a predetermined region of a registration target object, and determine based on the score whether or not the matching target object is identical to the registration target object.

Abstract: An individual identification apparatus includes a setting means for setting an imaging condition for imaging a matching area of an object by a camera, an acquisition means for acquiring a matching image that is an image obtained by imaging the matching area of the object by the camera, a matching means for performing matching between the matching image and a registration image registered in advance, and a control means. The control means repeats processing of acquiring the matching image by the acquisition means and matching between the matching image and the registration image by the matching means, while changing the imaging condition set by the setting means, and determines an imaging condition in which a matching degree between the matching image and the registration image becomes a preset threshold or larger. The matching means identifies an individual based on the matching image captured under the determined imaging condition.

Abstract: An image matching apparatus matching a first image against a second image includes an acquiring unit, a generating unit, and a determining unit. The acquiring unit acquires a frequency feature of the first image and a frequency feature of the second image. The generating unit synthesizes the frequency feature of the first image and the frequency feature of the second image, and generates a quantized synthesized frequency feature in which a value of an element is represented by a binary value or a ternary value. The determining unit calculates a score indicating a degree to which the quantized synthesized frequency feature is a square wave having a single period, and matches the first image against the second image based on the score.
