An image processing device includes: an image reception unit for receiving an input image; an image generation unit for generating an image for extracting a feature from the input image; a feature extraction unit for extracting a feature from the generation image generated by the image generation unit; an identification unit for identifying an object in the image using the feature output from the feature extraction unit; an output unit for outputting an identification result output from the identification unit; and a feature map generation unit for instructing the image generation unit generating a new generation image based on the feature output from the feature extraction unit, and generating a feature map indicating a feature extraction condition for the new generation image and output the generated feature map to the feature extraction unit. With this configuration, a target object in the image is identified quickly and accurately.
