A quantization apparatus includes: an imaging unit that converts statistical data at a position in a real space into a pixel value of a coordinate, which is associated with the position, in an image; and a derivation unit that derives a quantization parameter corresponding to a quantization width of the pixel value for each of one or more positions in the real space with respect to a part or a whole of the image. The quantization apparatus may further include a purpose acquisition unit that acquires information indicating a purpose related to statistics. The derivation unit may derive the quantization parameter corresponding to the quantization width that is larger as the pixel value is larger.

Quantization apparatus, quantization method, and program

A statistical data processing device includes: a first statistical image generation unit for generating statistical images including a first statistical image representing a first statistical value as a corresponding pixel value, and a second statistical image representing a second statistical value as a corresponding pixel value; a mask generation unit for generating a mask image, the mask image extracting, if one of a pixel of a first statistical image and a corresponding pixel of a second statistical image does not have a pixel value indicating a statistical value, a pixel not having a pixel value indicating the statistical value or other pixel; and a second statistical image generation unit for generating a third statistical image in which a pixel value of a pixel not having a pixel value indicating the statistical value is complemented with a pixel value of the other statistical image.
