Abstract: Face detection is executed only on an image imaged based on an arbitrary (predetermined) focal point information defined in advance. In face detection, the face of a person is detected based on a relative value of statistics in a plurality of characteristic regions produced by contour or parts of the face of the person. Thus, even if the face in the image used for face detection is blurred, the statistics in a certain region can be acquired, and thus such face is detectable. Therefore, the primary subject to be focused can be rapidly detected without performing focal point control at a stage of preliminary imaging in the imaging apparatus.

Abstract translation: 仅在基于预先定义的任意（预定）焦点信息成像的图像上执行面部检测。 在面部检测中，基于由轮廓或人脸部分产生的多个特征区域中的统计的相对值来检测人脸。 因此，即使用于脸部检测的图像中的脸部变得模糊，也可以获取特定区域的统计信息，因此可以检测出这样的面部。 因此，可以在成像装置的初步成像阶段不进行焦点控制的情况下，快速地检测到被聚焦的主要受试者。
