Abstract: A first extracting unit extracts partial images from a learning image. A first calculator calculates a feature amount of the partial image. A retrieving unit retrieves objects included in the partial image, and gives, as a label, a vector to the feature amount. The vector represents relative positions between a first position in the partial image and each object included in the partial image. A voting unit generates a voting histogram for each partial image. A learning unit divides the feature amount of each partial image into clusters to reduce variation of the corresponding voting histogram, so as to learn a regression model representing a relationship between the feature amount of the partial image and the relative position of the object included in the partial image. A first predicting unit predicts, for each cluster, a representative label from the label given to the feature amount belonging to the cluster.
