<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for efficiently performing determination processing, configured by connecting a plurality of weak discriminators in series, on input image data. <P>SOLUTION: An image processing apparatus includes: an instruction part which instructs execution of determination processing on whether a specific pattern to be detected is included in a plurality of partial images respectively; an operation part which performs determination processing on the plurality of partial images respectively using a parameter for the determination processing including thresholds for determining whether to continue or end the determination processing as instructed by the instruction part; and a determination part which determines whether the determination processing on each of the plurality of partial images is completed from an operation result. When the determination part determines that the determination processing on at least one of the plurality of partial images is not completed, the instruction part instructs the execution of the determination processing again on the partial image determined not to have been processed, so that the operation part executes the determination processing on the partial image determined not to have been processed using a different parameter as the instructed again. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
