Abstract

An image processing device includes: a detection unit which detects a target object based on edge information acquired from image data; and a judging unit which judges whether a certain region in the image data is an improper region that is not suitable for detection of the target object based on an edge pattern of edge information in the certain region and a feature pattern indicating a feature of the target object, and the detection unit detects the target object excluding a region that has been judged to be the improper region by the judging unit.
