Abstract
An image recognition device includes: an image processing device that acquires a feature amount from an image; and an identification device that determines whether a prescribed identification object is present in the image, and identifies the identification object. The identification device includes a BNN that has learned the identification object in advance, and performs identification processing by performing a binary calculation with the BNN on the feature amount acquired by the image processing device. Then, the identification device selects a portion effective for identification from among high-dimensional feature amounts output by the image processing device to reduce the dimensions used in identification processing, and copies low-dimensional feature amounts output by the image processing device to increase dimensions.
