The disclosure provides an image recognition method and an image recognition device. The method includes: acquiring an image and capturing a plurality of feature points in the image; obtaining a capsule network, where the capsule network sequentially includes a convolution layer, a primary capsule layer, a routing capsule layer, and an output layer; inputting the image and the feature points into the convolution layer to generate a plurality of feature vectors; inputting the feature vectors and the feature points into the primary capsule layer to generate a plurality of activity vectors; and generating a recognition result corresponding to the image by the routing capsule layer and the output layer based on the activity vectors.
