Abstract:
1. A search skip region setting function generation method comprising: associating a template used to search for an object with a designated search point on each of model reduced-scale images having different size ratios, and detecting a designated point similarity between the template and the designated search point on each model reduced-scale image; detecting, when the designated search point similarity exceeds an object detection determination threshold, surrounding search point similarities between the template and a plurality of surrounding search points around the designated search point on each model reduced-scale image; and estimating a distance between the object and the template based on a high-low frequency of the surrounding search point similarities, estimating a detection error ratio of the object at a first surrounding search point based on the estimated distance, comparing an allowable detection error ratio that allows a detection error of the object with the estimated detection error ratio, and generating a function required to set a region where the estimated detection error ratio are less than the allowable detection error ratio as the search skip region of the object.
