INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18320298 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that can detect the inclination angle of a detection target in an image and adjust the processing accordingly.

  • An outputting unit in the apparatus outputs an evaluation value for each reference angle, indicating whether the detection target is inclined at that angle with respect to a standard orientation.
  • A first estimating unit in the apparatus estimates the inclination angle of the detection target based on the evaluation values for the reference angles.
  • A detecting unit in the apparatus detects the detection target by adjusting the processing using the estimated inclination angle.

Overall, this invention allows for accurate detection and adjustment of a detection target's inclination angle in an image.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided with an information processing apparatus. An outputting unit, for each of a plurality of reference angles, outputs an evaluation value indicating whether a detection target in an image is inclined at the reference angle with respect to a standard orientation of the detection target. A first estimating unit estimates an inclination angle of the detection target in the image with respect to the standard orientation based on the evaluation values that have been respectively output for the plurality of reference angles. A detecting unit detects the detection target through processing in which an adjustment has been made using the estimated inclination angle.
