The present disclosure provides an image processing method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium, which relate to the field of computer technology, and more particularly to artificial intelligence technology including computer vision, deep learning and the like. The image processing method includes: recognizing the image to be processed to determine attribute information of each object included in the image to be processed; determining a target thermal image to be recognized according to the attribute information of each object and the image to be processed; reconstructing the target thermal image to generate a first reconstructed image; and determining whether the image to be processed includes an object of a preset class according to a difference between the first reconstructed image and the target thermal image.
