Abstract:
1. An adaptive image processing apparatus comprising: a first matching unit which selects a plurality of representative candidate images from among a plurality of images included in a image pyramid so that scale levels of the selected plurality of representative candidate images are differentiated over a coarse interval and calculates a first matching score between each of the plurality of representative candidate images and a target model; a second matching unit which selects one scale level from among the scale levels of the plurality of representative candidate images based on the first matching score and calculates a second matching score between the target model and each of images that have the selected scale level and other scale levels differentiated over a fine interval from the selected scale level in a dense scale level range, the fine interval being narrower than the coarse interval; a representative scale level selecting unit which selects at least one of the scale levels included in the dense scale level range as a representative scale level based on the second matching scores; and an image processing unit which performs image processing based on an image having the selected representative scale level.
