Abstract

The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program capable of searching for and tracking a person desired to be searched for and tracked from images captured by a plurality of cameras with high precision. By inputting decision information used for a user to decide a searching target in a moving-object image PA captured by a monitoring camera imaging an imaging area CamA on a screen Pindicating a searching and tracking result, as indicated by a hand H, and by erasing a plot E from the searching and tracking result because of a distant position to which a person may not travel at an average human movement speed for about 5 seconds despite moving for a time of 5 seconds (1:00:05 to 1:00:00) from a plot A to the plot E by time-space comparison between detection results of the plots A and E, it is possible to improve precision of the searching and tracking result. The present technology can be applied to a security system or a marketing research system.
