Abstract

According to the present invention, a pedestrian is detected from an imaged image and a partial image including the pedestrian is extracted, shape information of the pedestrian acquired from the extracted partial image is accumulated and the shape information of a predetermined time before and the current shape information are compared using the accumulated shape information to detect change in the movement of the pedestrian, discontinuous movement estimating information indicating a discontinuous movement of the pedestrian that occurs following the change in the movement of the pedestrian is acquired from a storage means at the time the change in the movement of the pedestrian is detected, and a behavior of the pedestrian is predicted using the acquired discontinuous movement estimating information.
