Abstract:
An image processing device includes an importance calculating unit, a capturing-direction acquiring unit, a parameter estimating unit, and an important-area setting unit. The importance calculating unit is configured to calculate importance of each of a plurality of positions in an image. The capturing-direction acquiring unit is configured to acquire, for each of the positions, a capturing direction in a three-dimensional space. The parameter estimating unit is configured to regard importance distributions in respective capturing directions as a mixture distribution made up of element distributions, so as to estimate a parameter of each of the element distributions. The important-area setting unit is configured to set an important area from the image in accordance with the parameter.

Claim (Index 2):
The image processing device according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the element distribution is a von Mises-Fisher distribution, the parameter includes a first parameter that indicates a mean direction of the element distribution and a second parameter that indicates a degree to which the distribution is concentrated in vicinity of the mean direction, and the important-area setting unit sets the important area by setting the mean direction indicated by the first parameter as a center and determining a size based on the degree of concentration indicated by the second parameter.
