Abstract
A dividing pattern determination device capable of reducing the amount of computation performed when determining a dividing pattern of an image. An image for which a dividing pattern is expressed by a hierarchical structure for each predetermined area is input to a feature extraction section, and the feature extraction section generates, based on the input image, for the predetermined area, a hierarchy map in which a value indicative of a block size is associated with each of a plurality of blocks in the predetermined area. A determination section determines a dividing pattern of the image based on the generated hierarchy map.
