An image recognition method, comprising: obtaining, by a recognition device, a first recognition record file, wherein the first recognition record file comprises at least two recognition records each comprising coordinates indicative of a specified event in a monitored image photographed by a monitoring device before a time instant in a case that the specified event is recognized from the monitored image; after a preset time interval has elapsed, obtaining, by the recognition device, a second recognition record file, wherein each recognition record comprised in the second recognition record file comprises coordinates indicative of the specified event in a part of monitored images photographed by the monitoring device, in a case that the specified event is recognized from the whole coordinate regions (paragraph 76) in the part of monitored images, and the part of monitored images are images other than the monitored image corresponding to the at least two recognition records in the first recognition record file; calculating, by the recognition device, a fitting degree between the first recognition record file and the second recognition record file, the fitting degree indicative of a similarity level between a first region and a second region, wherein the first region is a region corresponding to the coordinates comprised in the at least two recognition records in the first recognition record file, and the second region is a region corresponding to the coordinates comprised in the recognition records in the second recognition record file; and updating, by the recognition device when the fitting degree is lower than a preset fitting degree threshold, the first recognition record file based on the recognition records comprised in the second recognition record file; determining, by the recognition device, a monitored region based on the coordinates comprised in the at least two recognition records in the first recognition record file, the monitored region being a part of region of the monitored image photographed by the monitoring device; performing recognition, by the recognition device when performing recognition on at least one frame of monitored image subsequently photographed by the monitoring device after the time instant, on an image located in the monitored region in the at least one frame of monitored image; calculating, by the recognition device, an event probability that an event recognized from the monitored image is the specified event; generating, by the recognition device in response to the event probability being higher than a preset probability threshold, a recognition record of the event based on coordinates indicative of the event in the monitored image; and including, by the recognition device, the recognition record of the event to the first recognition record file. obtaining, by a recognition device, a first recognition record file, wherein the first recognition record file comprises at least two recognition records each comprising coordinates indicative of a specified event in a monitored image photographed by a monitoring device before a time instant in a case that the specified event is recognized from the monitored image;
