Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Input information of a multidimensional array is divided into a plurality of divided areas, accumulated information is generated by calculating accumulated values at respective element positions of the input information from a corresponding reference location for each of the plurality of divided areas, and the generated accumulated information is held in a memory for each divided area. Calculation using the accumulated information is executed for a predetermined processing range. The input information is divided into the plurality of divided areas so that two neighboring divided areas have an overlapping area, and the overlapping area has a size at least in which the whole processing range fits.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An information processing method comprising: a dividing step of dividing input information of a multidimensional array into a plurality of divided areas; a generating step of generating, for each divided area of the plurality of divided areas, accumulated information by calculating accumulated values at respective element positions in the divided area from a reference position for the divided area; a holding step of holding the accumulated information fo…
