Abstract
There is provided with an image identification apparatus. An extraction unit extracts a feature value of an image from image data using a Neural Network (NN). A processing unit identifies the image based on the feature value extracted by the extraction unit. The NN comprises a plurality of calculation layers connected hierarchically. The NN includes a plurality of sub-neural networks for performing processing of calculation layers after a specific calculation layer. Mutually different data from an output of the specific calculation layer are respectively inputted to the plurality of sub-neural networks.
