摘要:
An image sensing device collects the speech and image of a person to be sensed and carries out recognition of the collected speech. When the image sensing device determines as the recognition result that the speech represents a predetermined sentence, the image sensing device performs recognition on an acquired image. When the image sensing device determines as a recognition result that the image is a human face showing a predetermined facial expression, the image sensing device records the image and audio information.

A pattern recognition method, applicable to input information including a plurality of regions, includes obtaining a certainty at which each region of the input information includes a pattern, selecting one or more regions having a relatively high-level certainty among the plurality of regions, and performing pattern detection processing on the selected region or regions.

In an image within which a face pattern is detected, when a ratio of a skin color pixel is equal to or smaller than a first threshold value in a first region and a ratio of a skin color pixel is equal to or greater than a second threshold value in a second r region, the vicinity of the first region is determined to be a face candidate position at which the face pattern can exist. Face detection is carried out on the face candidate position. The second region is arranged in a predetermined position relative to the first region.

A situation monitoring device which enables monitoring of a variety of situations and reporting in response to the situation using a single device is provided. The situation monitoring device is easy to install and to use and a system therefore can be implemented inexpensively. The situation monitoring device recognizes a place or installation where the device is installed (step S102), holds relational information correlating the place of installation and the situation to be recognized and determines a predetermined situation to be recognized according to place of installation recognition results and the relational information (step S104), recognizes a determined predetermined situation (step S106), and reports the result of the predetermined situation to a user (step S108).

A feature extraction unit (23) extracts features of an object of interest included in an image. A local region setting unit (24) sets a local region that includes a feature group required to obtain the shape of the object and a local region that includes a feature group required to obtain the positional relationship. A feature vector generation unit (25) calculates feature vector data in the set local regions. An object recognition unit (26) determines which of different objects the object of interest is, on the basis of the feature vectors.

An information processing apparatus includes an image input unit which inputs image data containing a face, a face position detection unit which detects, from the image data, the position of a specific part of the face, and a facial expression recognition unit which detects a feature point of the face from the image data on the basis of the detected position of the specific part and determines facial expression of the face on the basis of the detected feature point. The feature point is detected at a detection accuracy higher than detection of the position of the specific part. Detection of the position of the specific part is robust to a variation in the detection target.

In an image capturing apparatus, a video input unit (2) captures the image of an object and sequentially acquires image data associated with the image capturing, a model data memory (6) stores model data associated with the first feature quantity calculated from a feature point of the object in a model image, a principal object detection unit (3) calculates the second feature quantity from a feature point of the object in the acquired image data, a state change estimation unit (4) estimates, on the basis of the second feature quantity and the model data, the timing when the object satisfies a predetermined condition, and an image input processing control unit (7) stores the image data corresponding to the estimated timing in an image recording unit (5). This configuration makes the image capturing apparatus acquire an image in a more proper state without large-capacity memory.

An object area in an image is determined, and an area image representing the object area is superimposed on the object in the image. In this image, an area to be photographed with high quality is specified using the area image, and a control parameter for controlling an image pickup unit is adjusted so that the quality level of an image within the area to be photographed with high quality is increased to a desired level. Thus, when photographing an image, an area to be photographed with high quality can be easily set in the image.
