Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit, a first detection unit, a selection unit, and a correction unit. The acquisition unit acquires an image including a target object having a plurality of parts. The first detection unit detects a candidate region of each of the plurality of parts of the target object included in the acquired image using a previously learned model. The selection unit selects, based on the candidate region detected by the first detection unit, a first part having relatively high reliability and a second part having relatively low reliability from among the plurality of parts. The correction unit corrects the model by changing a position of the second part based on the first part selected by the selection unit.
