Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to obtain reliable recognition performance even in a lens which is capable of long-distance and close proximity photography. This object recognition device 1 comprises an image acquisition unit which acquires an image 1000 which includes a plurality of image regions 1001, 1002, 1003 which have differing resolutions, and a recognition processing unit which carries out a recognition process upon an object within the screen 1000. One image region 1003, among the plurality of image regions 1001, 1002, 1003 of the screen 1000, has a lower resolution than the other image regions 1001, 1002. The recognition processing unit carries out the recognition process of the object on the basis of assessment references which differ among the one image region 1003 and the other image regions 1001, 1002.

Abstract: Provided is a host vehicle position estimation device capable of accurately estimating the position of a host vehicle on a map even if there is no landmark that can be referred to on an image photographed using a camera. A host vehicle position is estimated on the basis of intermediate information about a landmark name and landmark distance for an intermediate object extracted from a photographed image of the surroundings of a host vehicle, distance information about the distance to the intermediate object, and landmark information stored beforehand about the landmark name and position.

Abstract: A vehicle-mounted image recognition device addresses the problem of obtaining a vehicle-mounted image recognition device capable of improving the efficiency of image processing.
