Abstract

It is to learn an object identification parameter while suppressing an influence of the background area. The object identification parameter learning system includes: a feature extracting device for obtaining a feature of an object from the image; a background specifying device for specifying a background area of the image; a background replacing device which replaces feature components corresponding to the background area of the feature with other values; and an identification parameter update device for updating the identification parameter based on the feature components replaced by the background replacing device. The identification parameter can be learnt by generating a plurality of pieces of feature data of the object with different backgrounds from a single object image through replacing the background area of the feature of the object.
