1. An image search apparatus comprising: search object image designation means for designating search object images; search condition input means for inputting search conditions; for each designated search object image: feature amount extraction means for extracting a feature amount from the search object image; feature amount transformation means for transforming said extracted feature amount to adapt to said input search conditions; and determination means for determining whether or not said search object image is matched with the search conditions using said transformed feature amount after transformation, wherein said feature amount transformation means comprises coordinate transformation means for transforming coordinates of a noticed subject included in said extracted feature amount into coordinates in a coordinate system as defined by said search conditions, wherein said coordinate transformation means transforms a long-side coordinate interval of a long-side direction of the coordinate system for the search object image, wherein for a long-side coordinate interval that is within a predetermined range from a center of the coordinate system for the search object image, said coordinate transformation means transforms the long-side coordinate interval to be similar to a coordinate interval in a short-side direction, wherein for a long-side coordinate interval that is outside the predetermined range, said coordinate transformation means transforms the long-side coordinate interval to be wider than the coordinate interval in said short-side direction, wherein said determination means makes said determination by making greater a tolerance of determination near the periphery than at the center of the coordinate system, wherein a long-side coordinate interval that is near the periphery of the coordinate system is outside the predetermined range, and a long-side coordinate interval that is at the center of the coordinate system is within the predetermined range, wherein the long-side coordinate interval near the periphery of the coordinate system is transformed differently from the long-side coordinate interval at the center of the coordinate system, and wherein said determination means makes greater the tolerance of match determination near the periphery of the coordinate system in consideration of input errors of the search conditions near the periphery that are generated by transforming the long-side coordinate interval near the periphery to be wider than the coordinate interval in said short-side direction.
