Target object detecting method, apparatus, and program
First Claim
1. A target object detecting method for detecting from a digital image a predetermined target object included therein, said method comprising the steps of:
- performing a standard target object detecting process for detecting the predetermined target object having a standard characteristic on the digital image; and
performing a characteristic target object detecting process for detecting the predetermined target object having a predetermined specific characteristic on the digital image from which said predetermined target object has not been detected by said standard target object detecting process.

Abstract
Detecting a predetermined target object from a digital image reliably and rapidly. The standard face detecting section performs detection process for detecting a standard face from a photograph image. The eyeglassed face detecting section performs detection process for detecting an eyeglassed face from the photograph image from which no face has been detected by the standard face detecting section. The whiskered face detecting section performs detection process for detecting a whiskered face from the photo image from which no face has been detected by the standard face detecting section and eyeglassed face detecting section.
