Original Abstract Submitted
An image processing apparatus comprising one or more memories storing instructions and one or more processors that execute the instructions to acquire first information including likelihoods of tracking targets in a plurality of first candidates of the tracking target in a target image by using a tracking technique for tracking an object in an image, acquire second information including likelihoods of tracking targets in a plurality of second candidates of the tracking target in the target image by using a detection technique for detecting an object in an image, generate a determination reference for determining, based on the first information and the second information, whether a state is a lost state in which it is not possible to specify a tracking target, and determine, using the determination reference, whether the target image is set in a lost state.
