To provide a processor and a method for deciding a position where an image of an object is picked up by providing a step for calculating conversions among all images using plural input signals and a step for selecting the most accurate one among the conversions to be calculated.
A step or the like for calculating conversions among the whole three images by using a first input signal showing an affine between a first image pair of an object, a third input signal showing an affine between a second image pair of the object and a fifth signal showing features matched in the three images of the first pair and the second pair is provided. Further, a step for selecting the most accurate one among the calculated transformations is provided. A memory 6 in a computer 2 of this picture processor stores a program prescribing operation executed by a CPU 4, the object and image data processed by the CPU 4.
