An image processing method for calculating feature amounts of a facial part in a face on the basis of a plurality of image data obtained in chronological order, comparing the calculated feature amounts with a threshold value, and recognizing the facial part, includes: calculating face orientations on the basis of image data; storing, in a storage, the feature amounts calculated from the image data, the feature amounts being associated with the face orientations; and recognizing a facial part in different image data of the face other than the plurality of the image data on the basis of a feature amount calculated from the different image data, the feature amounts stored in the storage associated with the face orientation in the different image data, and a threshold.

An object of this invention is to provide a technique to correctly recognize road markings by a simple processing. This road marking recognition method: obtaining image data of a road, and storing the image data into an image data storage; detecting a first road marking in the image data stored in the image data storage, and storing position data of the first road marking into a storage; detecting a second road marking in the image data stored in the image data storage, and storing position data of the second road marking into a storage; judging based on the position data stored in the storage, whether or not a predefined proper mutual positional relationship between the first and second road markings is established; and evaluating a confidence degree for the detection result of the first and second road markings by using a result of the judging. For example, in a case of the road markings such as a crosswalk and a stop line, the stop line and the crosswalk have to be arranged in this order when viewing from the vehicle. Such a positional relationship is confirmed to evaluate the confidence degree.

Road marking recognition apparatus and method

An image recognition device for generating an output rotation image from input original image data, including a memory section being capable of storing data of a line including pixels of the original image data to be processed, an angle-to-sine/cosine converting section obtaining an X component and a Y component where a pixel interval of the original image data is an oblique side based on a rotating angle, and a coordinate searching section calculating a reference coordinate of the output rotation image for the original image using the X component and the Y component in order of input of the original image data and outputting data of the output rotation image based upon the reference coordinate.
