Abstract:
A feature calculator calculates the number of edge pixel pairs (three-dimensional histogram) defined by the edge direction of a predetermined pixel, the edge direction of an edge pixel present in a neighboring area of the predetermined pixel, and the spatial position relation between the predetermined pixel and the edge pixel present in the neighboring area of the predetermined pixel as a feature of an image. With this, the feature also represents the spatial relationship of the edges. Consequently, it is possible to also identify the difference of edge patterns due to the difference of the spatial relationships of the edges and increase the accuracy of identification of, for example, a portrait image.
