<p>An apparatus of determining a similar image contains a subject-region-detecting unit that detects a subject region from a received image, a pixel-value-distribution-generating unit that generates pixel value distribution of pixels included in the subject region detected by the subject-region-detecting unit, and a determination unit that determines whether or not an image relative to the subject region is similar to a previously registered subject image based on the pixel value distribution generated by the pixel value distribution generating unit and a registered pixel value distribution of the previously registered subject image.</p> |
