Abstract
A target searching apparatus includes a display, an object region extractor, a feature amount calculator, a second feature amount calculator, and an object present region extractor. The object region extractor extracts, from a display image, an object region including an identification object. The feature amount calculator calculates in-region and out-region representative values of the image feature amount that respectively are representative values inside and outside the object region in the display image. The second feature amount calculator calculates a representative value of the image feature amount in each of a plurality of small regions into which the object region is divided. The object present region extractor extracts, from the plurality of small regions, one or more small region having the representative value that is closer to the in-region representative value than the out-region representative value, as an object present region in which the identification object is present.
