Abstract
A target recognition device includes a roadside object determination unit, a coordinate calculation unit, a road boundary estimation unit, a distance calculation unit, and a likelihood increasing unit. The roadside object determination unit determines whether a target has a feature of a roadside object. The coordinate calculation unit calculates a coordinate in a lateral direction of the target. The road boundary estimation unit estimates a road boundary. The distance calculation unit calculates a distance from the target to the road boundary. The likelihood increasing unit increases a likelihood that the target is a roadside object, on condition that the distance is a preset threshold value or less.
