<p>An image distinguishing apparatus (IDDA) according to the present invention comprises a feature extractor (3) for extracting image feature data (Sf) from image data (Si) to be distinguished which is supplied from an image data source (1), an image pattern database equipment (5) which is constituted by image feature judgment data (Ss) produced by extracting, with respect to a plurality of reference original images having image features to be a criterion for distinguishing a predetermined image group (C), the image features, and an image pattern distinguisher (7) for finding the similarity (DFV(Ck, i)) between the image feature data (Sf) and each of the image feature judgment data (Ss). The image pattern distinguisher (7) further finds a code (Ck) for specifying the image feature judgment data (Ss) which is highest in the similarity (DFV(Ck, i)) to the image feature data (Sf) as image distinguishable information (Sid) of the image data (Si). As a result, inputted images can be distinguished and classified on a predetermined criterion. <IMAGE></p> |
