Abstract
An apparatus is configured to perform a tracking process using a first frame image and a second frame image separated from the first frame image by a predetermined period of time in a video image, and includes a detection unit configured to detect a subject as a tracking target from each of the first frame image and the second frame image, a first determination unit configured to determine whether the tracking targets are in a moving state or in a non-moving state in each combination of the tracking target detected from the first frame image and the tracking target detected from the second frame image, and a second determination unit configured to perform matching determination to determine whether the combination is a combination of identical tracking targets if the combination of the tracking targets is a combination of tracking targets in the non-moving state.
