An image recognition method or apparatus, the method comprising: inputting an image containing an object to be recognized; creating an input subspace from the inputted image; storing a model subspace to represent three-dimensional object models respectively for different environments; projectively transforming the input subspace in a manner to suppress an element common between the input subspace and the model subspace and thereby suppress influence due to environmental variation, into an environment-suppressing subspace; storing dictionary subspaces relating to registered objects; calculating a similarity between the environment-suppressing subspace and the dictionary subspace; and identifying the object to be recognized as one of the registered objects corresponding to the dictionary subspace having similarity exceeding a threshold.
