Abstract
Disclosed is a learning device. A feature-quantity calculation unit extracts a feature quantity from each feature point of a learning image. An acquisition unit acquires a classifier already obtained by learning as a transfer classifier. A classifier generation unit substitutes feature quantities into weak classifiers constituting the transfer classifier, calculates error rates of the weak classifiers on the basis of classification results of the weak classifiers and a weight of the learning image, and iterates a process of selecting a weak classifier of which the error rate is minimized a plurality of times. In addition, the classifier generation unit generates a classifier for detecting a detection target by linearly coupling a plurality of selected weak classifiers.
