Red-eye determination device
First Claim
1. A red-eye determination device that determines a red eye from a red-eye candidate which is detected from image information of a captured image of a vehicle occupant, comprising:
- circuitry configured to;
learn a black eye position existence probability density distribution from the image information acquired while the vehicle is being driven;
detect the red-eye candidate from the image information; and
determine a red-eye candidate, disposed at a position of high black eye position existence probability density in the learned black eye position existence probability density distribution, as the red-eye when two or more red-eye candidates are detected.

Abstract
A black eye position existence probability density distribution learning unit that records a black eye position which is detected in the daytime to a black eye position existence probability density distribution, a red-eye candidate detection unit that detects red-eye candidates from the image of the driver at night, and a red-eye determination unit that determines the red eye from the red-eye candidates. The red-eye determination unit determines the red eye on the basis of the relationship between a change in the direction of the face and the behavior of the red-eye candidate and determines, as the red eye, the red-eye candidate disposed at the position of high black eye position existence probability density with reference to the black eye position existence probability density distribution.
