摘要:
A pattern identification unit generation method of generating a pattern identification unit in which a weak discriminator array obtained by cascade-connecting a plurality of weak discriminators branches, and weak discriminator arrays are connected to respective arms after branching, evaluates based on a processing result obtained by inputting a set of evaluation data to the weak discriminator array whether or not a weak discriminator array after branching reaches the number of stages to be connected. The number of stages of weak discriminators to be connected without branching as the weak discriminator array is determined based on this evaluation result.

An image processing method is provided for an image processing apparatus which executes processing by allocating a plurality of weak discriminators to form a tree structure having branches corresponding to types of objects so as to detect objects included in image data. Each weak discriminator calculates a feature amount to be used in a calculation of an evaluation value of the image data, and discriminates whether or not the object is included in the image data by using the evaluation value. The weak discriminator allocated to a branch point in the tree structure further selects a branch destination using at least some of the feature amounts calculated by weak discriminators included in each branch destination.

Even when a local area is varied, degradation in recognition accuracy and detection accuracy is suppressed. To that end, a pattern processing apparatus includes a reference local area setting portion 1802 for setting a reference local area based on the detection result of a feature point by a face organ feature point detecting portion 101, a varied local area generating portion 1803 for generating a plurality of varied local area patterns by referring to an image area near the reference local area, a similarity calculating portion 106 for calculating similarities in the reference local areas and in the varied local area patterns between the input pattern and the registered pattern, a representative similarity calculating portion 107 for calculating representative similarity from among the similarities, and a classifying portion 109 for determining a class to which the input pattern belongs.

An information processing apparatus and method enables a pattern discriminator to learn. The apparatus establishes a branch structure appropriate for learning a discriminator having the branch structure without increasing processing time. The apparatus includes a preliminary learning unit to learn a preliminary discriminator for a respective one of a plurality of combinations of variations in variation categories in a discrimination target pattern. A branch structure determination unit is provided to perform discrimination processing using the preliminary discriminator and to determine a branch structure of a main discriminator based on a result of the discrimination processing. A main learning unit is included to learn the main discriminator based on the branch structure.

摘要:
In an information processing apparatus that processes data using cascade-connected weak classifiers, processing specification information specifying the processing content of each of the weak classifiers is stored. The weak classifiers to be used in processing the data are selected from the weak classifiers by referring to a table in which is specified information for determining the weak classifiers to be used based on a condition for processing the data. The data is then processed by the selected weak classifiers based on the processing specification information that corresponds to those weak classifiers, and an object is extracted from the data using an obtained evaluation value. Through this, a combination of extraction process speed and extraction accuracy can be changed in a flexible manner when extracting a specific object from image data.
摘要:
A data correction apparatus which corrects data associated with an image of an object projects vector data obtained by connecting data to be corrected to each other onto a subspace to generate a dimensionally reduced projection vector, and executes dimension restoration processing in which the dimensionality of the projection vector is restored to generate dimensionally restored vector data, thereby generating a plurality of dimensionally restored vector data for each type of fluctuation. The data correction apparatus determines the fluctuation of the object based on the projection vector, integrates the plurality of dimensionally restored vector data with each other based on the determination result, and outputs the integration result as corrected data.
