Abstract: A device and method merge a first candidate area relating to a candidate feature in a first image and a second candidate area relating to a candidate feature in a second image. The first and second images have an overlapping region, and at least a portion of the first and second candidate areas are located in the overlapping region. An image overlap size is determined indicating a size of the overlapping region of the first and second images, and a candidate area overlap ratio is determined indicating a ratio of overlap between the first and second candidate areas. A merging threshold is then determined based on the image overlap size, and, on condition that the candidate area overlap ratio is larger than the merging threshold, the first candidate area and the second candidate area are merged, thereby forming a merged candidate area.
