The detection deviceX mainly includes an acquisition meansX, a common feature quantity extraction meansX, a feature information detection meansX, an attribute identification meansX, and an output meansX. The acquisition meansX acquires data relating to a detection target. The common feature quantity extraction meansX extracts, from the data, common feature quantity common to plural candidates of an attribute of the detection target. The feature information detection meansX detects the feature information for each of the plural candidates based on the common feature quantity. The attribute identification meansX identifies the attribute of the detection target based on the data. The output meansX outputs the feature information corresponding to the identified attribute.
