Abstract

First extracting means of a processing unit, based on a brightness component and a color information component of a captured image separated by separating means, extract a candidate region using a first morphology processing based on the brightness component, and second extracting means of the processing unit extract a likelihood of a region from a color space composed of the brightness component and the color information component and perform a second morphology processing to generate a region-extracted image, which is displayed on the display device. In this case, the morphology processing including the smoothing filter processing is performed on an extracted candidate region and an extracted likelihood of the region.
