Abstract

A classification result is stored in advance. At the time of identification, classification is performed at a high speed based on the stored classification result. In pre-classification, classification is performed divisionally in two stages. In the first classification, a plurality of representative vectors are generated from the classification result using a fast executable method. In the second classification, the created representative vectors are classified, and the result is stored in a lookup table. When an identification target image is input, the classification result can be reflected at a high speed by using the lookup table.
