Abstract
There is provided with a data processing apparatus for detecting an object from an image using a hierarchical neural network. The data processing apparatus has parallel first and second neural networks. An obtaining unit obtains a table which defines different first and second portions. An operation unit performs calculation of the feature data of a third portion based on feature data of the first portion identified using the table and on a weighting parameter between first and second layers of the first neural network, and calculation of feature data of a fourth portion based on feature data of the second portion identified using the table and on a weighting parameter between the first and second layers of the second neural network.
