    摘要: The position of a moving object is estimated with high accuracy using landmark information, and highly accurate state estimation is performed appropriately at high speed. A landmark detection unit obtains a distance between the moving object and each of two or more landmarks as landmark distance information based on observation data obtained by an observation obtaining unit. A candidate area obtaining unit determines a candidate area for a position of the moving object based on the landmark distance information obtained by the landmark detection unit, and obtains candidate area information indicating the determined candidate area. A state estimation unit estimates an internal state of the moving object based on the observation data, the landmark distance information, and the candidate area information to obtain moving object internal state estimation data, and estimates the environmental map based on the candidate area information and the landmark distance information to obtain environmental map data.

    摘要: A state estimation apparatus obtains observation data sets for a tracking target object, and estimates an internal state of the object using likelihoods obtained from the observation data sets and the reliability of each observation data set. A first observation obtaining unit obtains first observation data. A second observation obtaining unit obtains second observation data. A first likelihood obtaining unit obtains a first likelihood based on the first observation data. A second likelihood obtaining unit obtains a second likelihood based on the second observation data. A likelihood combining unit obtains a combined likelihood based on the first and second likelihoods, first reliability data indicating the reliability of the first observation data, and second reliability data indicating the reliability of the second observation data. A posterior probability distribution obtaining unit obtains posterior probability distribution data indicating a probability distribution of the internal state of the observation target at current time t from the combined likelihood and predictive probability distribution data.

    摘要: Provided is a state determination apparatus that appropriately performs pattern classification processing and/or pattern determination processing even when a map generated by the SOM technique includes discontinuous image regions. In the state determination apparatus, the matching processing unit obtains adaptability data indicating a correlation degree between template data indicating a state and the SOM output data. The state determination unit obtains a state evaluation value based on an activity value obtained by the activity value obtaining unit and the adaptability value. The time series estimation unit determines a state of an input data based on the state evaluation value and state transition probability between states. This allows for appropriately performing pattern classification processing and/or pattern determination processing even when a map generated by the SOM technique includes discontinuous image regions.

    摘要: An image capture apparatus 1000 includes an image capture unit C1, a signal processor unit C2, and a pixel interpolation unit 100. In the image capture apparatus 1000, with respect to an image signal captured by the image capture unit C1 which includes a single image sensor having three-color filters in arbitrary colors, a plurality of pairs of correlation degrees of two directions which are perpendicular to each other are obtained using image data of pixels provided around an observed pixel, and a pixel interpolation process is carried out using the correlation degrees as a reference for determination. Then, in the image capture apparatus 1000, even if a color component pixel in the same color as a color component pixel on which the pixel interpolation process is to be carried out is not provided in a direction where there is strong correlation, a rate of change in a direction perpendicular to the direction where there is strong correlation is obtained using a pixel value which is obtained though color space conversion in the direction perpendicular to the direction where there is strong correlation. Thus, a pixel interpolation process is carried out based on the obtained rate of change.

    摘要: A state estimation apparatus appropriately estimates the internal state of an observation target by calculating a likelihood from observation data, and tracks, for example, multiple objects in a moving image and detects a new object and adds the object as a tracking target in an appropriate manner. A labeling unit detects a closed area from an observation image, and adds a label number to the closed area to generate a label image. A likelihood obtaining unit generates an object-erased image for new object detection by erasing image areas corresponding to all the currently-tracked objects. The apparatus performs the process for detecting a new object using the object-erased image for new object detection based on label numbers. The apparatus is appropriately prevented from erroneously determining that an area of the object-erased image for new object detection corresponding to the currently-tracked object and remaining after the erasure corresponds to a new object.
