Abstract
A learning apparatus for a pattern detector, which includes a plurality of weak classifiers and detects a specific pattern from input data by classifications of the plurality of weak classifiers, acquires a plurality of data for learning in each of which whether or not the specific pattern is included is given, makes the plurality of weak classifiers learn by making the plurality of weak classifiers detect the specific pattern from the acquired data for learning, selects a plurality of weak classifiers to be composited from the weak classifiers which have learned, and composites the plurality of weak classifiers into one composite weak classifier based on comparison between a performance of the composite weak classifier and performances of the plurality of weak classifiers.
