ABSTRACT:
The type of an object included in an image is automatically recognized. An image is divided into object regions and into block regions each having a predetermined number of pixels and smaller than any one of the object regions. The types of the respective block regions are recognized and totaled up for each of the object regions. The type of each of the object regions is then recognized by using a result of totaling.
