  • Publication number: 20180314890
    Abstract: A method executed by a computer, the method includes receiving an image, executing an image analysis of the received image, generating, based on the image analysis, text data indicating a candidate for a model of a vehicle included in the image, when the text data indicates a first model as the candidate, executing a first search by using the text data as a search keyword, and displaying, on a display screen, the first model and a first result of the first search.

  • Patent number: 8433099
    Abstract: The pixels located at equal intervals in a shot image are converted into intensity components and applied with a differential filter. The number of the obtained variations that have values larger than or equal to a certain value among the obtained variations is counted. Then discrimination of a vehicle shot in the target image is executed on the basis of the counted value. The counted value varies depending on a size of a shot object in a shot image. The counted value is large when an occupied area of the object is large, and the counted value is small when the occupied area of the object is small. By so doing, it is advantageously possible to properly discriminate a vehicle.

  • Patent number: 8229171
    Abstract: A vehicle-type determination apparatus includes a vehicle-portion extracting unit, a hood recognizing unit, and a vehicle-type determining unit. The vehicle-portion extracting unit extracts a vehicle portion from an image of a recognition object. The hood recognizing unit recognizes an area corresponding to a hood in the vehicle portion extracted by the vehicle-portion extracting unit. The vehicle-type determining unit determines the vehicle type based on the degree of inclination of a side of the hood area recognized by the hood recognizing unit.
