Claim Text:
1. A method executed by a processor, the method comprising: determining at least one of integral column sums and integral row sums of an image, each of the integral column sums being associated with a first pixel in a column of pixels of the image and corresponding to a sum of a pixel value of the first pixel and any other pixel value associated with any other pixel in the column of pixels that precedes the first pixel, each of the integral row sums being associated with a second pixel in a row of pixels of the image and corresponding to a sum of a pixel value of the second pixel and any other pixel value associated with any other pixel in the row of pixels that precedes the second pixel; determining at least one of a column-wise sum of pixel values and a row-wise sum of pixel values associated with an area within the image based on at least one of the determined integral column sums and the determined integral row sums corresponding to a plurality of the pixels forming the area; and detecting an object within the image based on at least one of the determined column-wise sum and the determined row-wise sum.
