Title:
ORIENTATION STATE ESTIMATION DEVICE AND ORIENTATION STATE ESTIMATION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/077287
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is an orientation state estimation device capable of estimating with high accuracy the orientation state of a jointed body. An orientation state estimation device (100) estimates the orientation state of a body on the basis of image data of the body having multiple parts connected by joints. The disclosed orientation state estimation device is provided with: a likelihood map generation unit (150) which, from the image data, for at least two parts of the jointed body, generates a likelihood map showing the plausibility distribution of where each part is most plausibly positioned; and an orientation state estimation unit (160) which, when a learning likelihood map, which is associated in advance with an orientation state, and an estimated likelihood map, which is generated on the basis of the image data, coincide to a high degree, estimates that the orientation state associated with said learning likelihood map is the orientation state of the object.
