摘要： To provide an imaging region adjustment device, including plural camera terminals, capable of imaging an entire imaging target without blinds spots. Each of the camera terminals includes a camera (201) which images a virtual imaging region obtained while changing the position of an imaging region within a specific region in a specific period of time and an adjusting unit B (204) which adjusts the position of the virtual imaging region by controlling the camera (201). The adjusting unit B (204) adjusts the position and aspect ratio of the virtual imaging region of one's own camera terminal so that a combined region of the virtual imaging regions of the camera terminals completely covers a specific imaging target region, based on the virtual imaging region of one's own camera terminal and virtual imaging regions of the other camera terminals, and when the virtual imaging regions A of N other camera terminals are contained in the virtual imaging region of one's own camera terminal, divides the virtual imaging region of one's own camera terminal into N+1 regions.

摘要： An apparatus and method for automatically generating and adjusting fuzzy reasoning, i.e. logic, rules based on changes in the reasoning error. The apparatus includes a fuzzy reasoning section that performs fuzzy logic based on the fuzzy reasoning rules stored in the a rule memory. The parameters of the fuzzy reasoning rules are adjusted in a parameter tuning section based on the output of the fuzzy reasoning section and predetermined input and output data. A reasoning error calculation section calculates a reasoning error and a change in the reasoning error based on the results from the fuzzy reasoning section and the predetermined input and output data. The reasoning error calculation section also disables the parameter tuning section when the calculated reasoning error is less than a predetermined first threshold value. When the calculated reasoning error is greater than or equal to the predetermined threshold value and the change in the reasoning error is less than a predetermined second threshold value, a rule generation section generates one or more fuzzy reasoning rules and regenerates the fuzzy reasoning rules stored in the rule memory based on the new fuzzy reasoning rule(s) so that optimal fuzzy reasoning rules are obtained.

A situation determining apparatus for analyzing captured moving images or a plurality of captured still images to determine a movement situation and/or a degree of congestion of persons includes: a local image change ratio calculating unit 120 that calculates a time change ratio of a brightness value in a local area of the captured images; and a situation determining unit 170 that analyzes a histogram of the time change ratios of a plurality of local areas calculated by the local image change ratio calculating unit 120 and determines the movement situation of the persons and/or the degree of congestion of the persons. In addition, a congestion estimating apparatus includes: a movement information generating unit 613 that generates movement information from an image sequence output from an image generating unit 611; a texture information generating unit 615 that generates texture information of the image; a reference movement information generating unit 614 that stores and updates reference movement information, which is a reference for movement; a reference texture information generating unit 616 that stores and updates reference texture information for determining whether there is a person; a movement information determining unit 618 that determines whether there is a movement; a texture information determining unit 619 that determines whether there is the same texture information as a person; and a staying determining unit 620 that receives the determination result of the movement information and the determination result of the texture information and determines whether there is a person. The congestion estimating apparatus determines similarity on the basis of whether there is a movement and texture to determine various states of each area, thereby estimating the degree of congestion.
