An ROI developing unit, based on ROI information, specifies an ROI corresponding portion corresponding to an ROI and a non-ROI corresponding portion corresponding to a non-ROI to the first image data.

The IWT unit performs inverse wavelet transformation on second image data (first image data obtained after the high-frequency cutting process and the low-frequency blurring process are performed) to generate third image data.

Abstract: An ROI in a first image and a second image are synthesized by synthesizing first wavelet coefficient data corresponding to the first image and second wavelet coefficient data corresponding to the second image. An ROI coefficient and a non-ROI coefficient in the first wavelet coefficient data are determined on the basis of a mask for the first wavelet coefficient data, and the ROI coefficient and a wavelet coefficient in the second wavelet coefficient data, which is corresponding to the non-ROI coefficient, are synthesized. When the above coefficient synthesis is performed after a decomposition level of the first wavelet coefficient data is increased, the first wavelet coefficient data is adjusted on the basis of auxiliary wavelet coefficient data corresponding to an auxiliary image which can be equated with the first image before increasing the decomposition level.

Abstract: An image recognition apparatus determines whether an image of a pedestrian is captured in a frame of video data captured by a vehicle mounted camera. A pre-processing unit determines a detection block from within a frame, and cuts out block image data corresponding to the detection block from the frame.

A post-processing unit determines whether a pedestrian exists within the detection block on the basis of the output synapse. When a pedestrian is detected, the post-processing unit creates result data, which is obtained by superimposing the detection block within which the pedestrian was detected onto the frame.
