Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes obtaining distance information and subject information with respect to a captured image, specifying, based on the obtained distance information, a first subject region in which images of subjects that exist in a predetermined distance range are distributed in the captured image, specifying, based on the subject information and independently of the obtained distance information, specifying a second subject region that includes a region from which the predetermined subject has been detected in the captured image, and determining a target region for which the image processing is executed with reference to at least one of the first subject region and the second subject region. A subject region varies depending on at least one of an image capture condition of the captured image and a state of the captured image.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an apparatus and a method for detecting a facial pose, an image processing system, and a storage medium. The apparatus comprises: an obtaining unit to obtain at least three keypoints of at least one face from an input image based on a pre-generated neural network, wherein coordinates of the keypoints obtained via a layer in the neural network for obtaining coordinates are three-dimensional coordinates; and a determining unit to determine, for the at least one face, a pose of the face based on the obtained keypoints, wherein the determined facial pose includes at least an angle. According to the present disclosure, the accuracy of the three-dimensional coordinates of the facial keypoints can be improved, thus the detection precision of a facial pose can be improved.

Abstract: Provided is an image processing apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit that acquires location information indicating a photographed point and date/time information indicating a photographed date/time for each of a plurality of images representing image data obtained by photographing; a determination unit that determines whether the photographed point of each image is a main photographed point or a sub-photographed point on the basis of the location information and the date/time information; and a recording unit that, if the photographed point of the image is the main photographed point, records information indicating the location of the main photographed point in association with the image data of the image, and that, if the photographed point of the image is the sub-photographed point, records information indicating the locations of the sub-photographed point and of the main photographed point in association with the image data of the image.

Abstract: Upon capturing an image, distances to subjects are measured. The captured image is divided into a plurality of different layers that each has a set distance interval, so that subjects which are located within the same distance range belong to the same layer. Furthermore, enlargement ratios are set for the plurality of divided layers to execute resizing processing, and the resized layers are composited, so that layers having shorter distances to a subject are overlaid as upper layers, thereby obtaining an image which is resized for respective distances to subjects.
