ABSTRACT:
The particular region detecting method and apparatus detect particular region candidates in an image, then perform face detection in a region including one of the detected particular region candidates and specify as a particular region of a detection target the one candidate included in the region where a face can be detected. In the method and apparatus, detection conditions is changed for at least one of the candidate detection and the face detection between main and non-main portion regions of the image, face information regarding the face detected in the region is stored and the face detection corresponding to a particular region candidate to be next subjected to the face detection is performed using the thus stored face information. The program is caused a computer to execute the method.
