Abstract
To improve, when performing tracking of moving objects by using captured images taken by multiple cameras, the accuracy of the tracking process across the cameras, a tracking processing device includes: a storage unit that stores, for each camera, a plurality of pieces of intra-camera tracking information including image information of persons obtained from the captured images; a refining unit that performs refining of the plurality of pieces of intra-camera tracking information and thereby extracts pieces of inter-camera tracking information to be used in a process of tracking the persons across the multiple cameras; and an associating unit that, on the basis of the pieces of inter-camera tracking information, associates the persons in the captured images across the multiple cameras.
