Abstract
In an object detection device, a plurality of object detection units output a score indicating probability that a predetermined object exists, for each partial region set to image data inputted. The weight computation unit computes weights for merging the scores outputted by the plurality of object detection units, using weight calculation parameters, based on the image data. The merging unit merges the scores outputted by the plurality of object detection units, for each partial region, with the weights computed by the weight computation unit. The target model object detection unit configured to output a score indicating probability that the predetermined object exists, for each partial region set to the image data. The first loss computation unit computes a first loss indicating a difference of the score of the target model object detection unit from a ground truth label of the image data and the score merged by the merging unit. The first parameter correction unit corrects parameters of the target model object detection unit to reduce the first loss.
