Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, a program, and a watching system that enable determination of a specific region, such as the region occupied by a bed, in accordance with a captured image. An information processing device as an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a moving object detection unit that detects a moving object in a captured image; a stay area information holding unit that holds stay area information indicating the position of the moving object detected in the captured image; a stay frequency map generation unit that extracts the stay area information corresponding to a predetermined time period from time-series stay area information being held, and generates a stay frequency map by combining the extracted stay area information; and a specific region determination unit that determines a specific region having a high stay frequency regarding the moving object, in accordance with the generated stay frequency map. The present disclosure can be applied to watching systems installed in elderly care facilities and the like, for example.
