Original Abstract Submitted

An imaging system that performs object detection on the basis of a neural network includes: training data inputting unit configured to input training data for the object detection; network structure designation unit configured to designate a restriction of a network structure in the object detection; dictionary generation unit configured to generate dictionary data for the object detection on the basis of the training data and the restriction of the network structure; and an imaging device configured to perform the object detection on the basis of the dictionary data generated by the dictionary generation unit and performs predetermined imaging control on an object detected through the object detection.
