Abstract
A method for estimating body orientation includes: executing extraction processing for extracting a person region from images; executing an identification processing for identifying a left site and a right site in the person region; executing calculation processing for calculating a left moving amount and a right moving amount; and executing estimation processing for estimating body orientation in the person region based on a first difference and relation information, the first difference being a difference between the left moving amount and the right moving amount, the relation information including first and second relation information, the first relation information indicating a relationship between the first difference and a change amount when the left moving amount is larger than the right moving amount, and the second relation information indicating a relationship between the first difference and the change amount when the right moving amount is larger than the left moving amount.
