  In this paper, we propose a novel template matching method with a white
balancing adjustment, called N-white balancing, which was proposed for
multi-illuminant scenes. To reduce the influence of lighting effects, N-white
balancing is applied to images for multi-illumination color constancy, and then
a template matching method is carried out by using adjusted images. In
experiments, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated to be
effective in object detection tasks under various illumination conditions.
