  • Publication number: 20230368033
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus (2000) generates likelihood data for each of a plurality of partial regions (12) in image data (10). The likelihood data are data being associated with a position and a size on the image data (10) and indicating a likelihood that a target object exists in an image region at the position with the size. The information processing apparatus (2000) computes a distribution (probability hypothesis density: PHD) of an existence likelihood of a target object with respect to a position and a size by computing the total sum of likelihood data each piece of which is generated for each partial region (12). The information processing apparatus (2000) extracts, from the PHD, partial distributions each of which relates to one target object. For each extracted partial distribution, the information processing apparatus (2000) outputs a position and a size of a target object represented by the partial distribution, based on a statistic of the partial distribution.

  • Publication number: 20220414918
    Abstract: A learning device makes an object detection device learn how to detect an object from an input image. A feature extraction unit performs feature extraction from input images including real images and pseudo images to generate feature maps, and the object detection unit detects objects included in the input images based on the feature maps. The domain identification unit identifies the domains forming the input images and generates domain identifiability information. Then, the feature extraction unit and the object detection unit learn common features that do not depend on the difference in domains, based on the domain identifiability information.
