Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method for detecting body parts, the method including identifying a group of sub-images relevant to a body part in an image to be detected, assigning a reliability coefficient for the body part to the sub-images in the group of sub-images based on a basic vision feature of the sub-images and an extension feature of the sub-images to neighboring regions, and detecting a location of the body part by overlaying sub-images having reliability coefficients higher than a threshold value.
