Abstract
A likelihood calculation unit calculates, from information obtained by each of movement detection methods including a movement detection method for detecting a movement amount of an object using an image and one or more different movement detection methods, movement amount likelihoods with regard to which the movement amount of an object is each of a plurality of movement amounts. An integration unit integrates the movement amount likelihoods according to the plurality of movement detection methods to determine integration likelihoods individually of the plurality of movement amounts. The present technology can be applied, for example, to a case in which a movement amount of an object is determined and a driver who drives an automobile is supported using the movement amount.
