Abstract
An information processing apparatus that discriminates the orientation of a target includes a calculation unit that calculates a distribution of a difference in feature amount between a plurality of learning patterns each showing the orientation of a target, a determination unit that determines, using a probability distribution obtained from the distribution of differences calculated by the calculation unit, a pixel that is in an input pattern and is to be referred to in order to discriminate the orientation of a target in the input pattern, and a discrimination unit that performs discrimination for obtaining the orientation of the target in the input pattern by comparing a feature amount of the pixel determined by the determination unit and a threshold set in advance.
