Abstract
According to an embodiment, an image processing device includes an obtaining unit, a first determining unit, and a detecting unit. The obtaining unit is configured to obtain an input image. The first determining unit is configured to determine a detection order that indicates an order of performing a detection operation for detecting whether an object is present with respect to partitioned areas into which the input image are divided, according to an existence probability that is set in advance for each of the partitioned areas and indicates a probability at which an object exists. The detecting unit is configured to perform, according to the detection order, the detection operation to detect whether the object is present in an area corresponding to a partitioned area subjected to the detection order in the input image.
