Abstract

A feature determination apparatus and method adapted to multiple object sizes are provided. The apparatus individually supplies each of the object images to a convolution neural network having several convolution layers to generate multiple feature maps corresponding to each object image. The apparatus calculates a feature amount of each feature image of each object image. The apparatus determines an invalid layer start number of each object image according to a preset threshold and the feature amount corresponding to each object image. The apparatus determines a feature map extraction recommendation for each of a plurality of object sizes according to a size of each object image and the invalid layer start number of each object image.
