Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 9:
10. An image processing apparatus comprising:
a receiver configured to receive an image; and
a controller configured to detect an object included in the image by evaluating a quality of the image, the controller comprising:
a target image acquirer configured to acquire a target image that includes the object from the image by normalizing a target area including the object based on an information associated with a feature of the object;
a quality evaluator configured to calculate an evaluation score by evaluating a quality of the target image; and
an object detector configured to detect the object from the target image based on the evaluation score,
wherein the target image acquirer comprises a normalizer configured to:
perform an approximation by enlarging or reducing the target area,
perform a scale normalization on the approximated target area based on the information, and
acquire the target image by performing an illumination normalization on the scaled normalized target area.
