An imaging apparatus is provided. The imaging apparatus includes an imager configured to record an external image, a region determiner configured to divide a recorded previous image frame and a recorded current image frame into pluralities of regions, calculate a moving direction and a distance of each of the plurality of regions in the current image frame corresponding to each of the plurality of regions in the previous image frame, and determine a background and an object by applying a preset background model and object model based on the calculated moving direction and distance, and a posture determiner configured to determine body parts of the determined object based on a body part model, and determine a posture of the object by combining the determined body parts.

Imaging apparatus and control method for determining a posture of an object

An apparatus and method for estimating the number of objects in an input image are disclosed. The apparatus includes: a learning unit that calculates counted values of a linear regression function by learning an arbitrary image; a separation unit that separates a foreground region and a background region of the input image; an extraction unit that searches for features that require an amount of calculation that is below a particular threshold from features having high correlation with each other feature and extracts the features from the separated foreground region; and an estimation unit that estimates the number of objects in the foreground region as a dependent variable by allocating the counted values of the linear regression function that are calculated by the learning unit and the features that are extracted by the extraction unit as independent variables of a linear regression function.
