Abstract
An apparatus includes a memory; a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor acquires three-dimensional information of observation points on an object from a sensor, specifies a first area and second areas adjacent to the first area from areas of the object based on the three-dimensional information, and specifies positions of feature points included in the second areas; sets links based on the feature points included in the second areas to estimate positions of skeletons included in the second areas; and uses end points of the skeletons and lengths from the end points of the skeletons to a position of a part included in the first area among parameters used to specify the position of the part, specifies the position of the part included in the first area, and estimates a position of a skeleton included in the first area based on the specified position of the part.
