An image detecting method comprises the steps of: a) searching for a pattern satisfying a predetermined commencement requirement by scanning an input image; b) using the pattern as a starting point, with referring to a dictionary storing therein distances between the center line and an edge of a detection target semicircle, determining for each of a predetermined number of main scan lines along a sub-scan direction whether or not a predetermined edge pattern occurs within a respective range of the distance of the dictionary; and c) determining a detection of the semicircle when the number of error lines on which the predetermined edge pattern does not occur within the respective range of the distance of the dictionary is less than a predetermined threshold.

There are provided a data recording medium, a reading device for reading the data recording medium, a recording device for reading the data recording medium and recording data to other media, and methods thereof able to prevent forgery without comparing visible information and data stored in a built-in electronic circuit chip. The reading device is for reading a data recording medium including a sheet portion visibly printed with an image and a data storage unit recorded with control data. The reading device comprises a first reading unit adapted to optically read the image on the sheet portion, a second reading unit adapted to read the control data including read permission data indicating whether reading of the image is permitted, a determination unit adapted to determine whether reading of the image by the first reading unit is permitted based on the read permission data obtained by the second reading unit, and a controller adapted to control the first reading unit based on the determination by the determination unit.

A circumscribing rectangle is obtained for a black continuous image part using a two-tone image signal. If it is determined that the image part is possibly one which is obtained as a result of rotating the object, lengths of sides of the image part are compared with threshold values. If it is determined that the image part is not one which is obtained as a result of rotating the object, the height and horizontal length of the circumscribing rectangle are compared with the threshold values. Thus, it is determined whether or not the image part is identical to the object. An RGB chromaticity histogram is produced for each of small regions of an input color image. Each of the chromaticity histograms of the small regions is compared with reference ones. As a result of the comparison, an identification number of the reference histogram having the highest similarity to that of the small region among those constituting the input image is given to the small region. A histogram of the identification numbers thus is produced for the input color image. The thus-produced histogram is used to determine which one of a plurality of objects is identical to the input color image.

摘要:
An image recognition apparatus for recognizing a specific image in an object image using image signals of the object image, the specific image having a possibility of being rotated. The image recognition apparatus includes an image information extraction unit for extracting an object image from the image signals as a candidate for recognition of the specific image and for extracting feature values from the object image using the image signals, and a match determining device coupled to the image information extraction unit for recognizing the specific image in the object image by a comparison of the extracted feature values from the object image with reference data for the specific image. The match determining device is controlled using the reference data according to an easy to determine rotation characteristic and difficult to determine rotation characteristic in the reference data for the specific image.
