Abstract
There are provided steps of extracting parts of two image data as areas for analysis (S, S) and an image difference detection step (S) of detecting an image difference between the two images, based on a difference in image characteristic values of the regions for analysis; the regions for analysis in the two image data have identical size. If no image difference is detected, the region extraction steps may expand the regions for analysis (S) by adding part or all of the image data that was not previously included in the regions for analysis (S). Scene changes can be done rapidly in images and video.
