Abstract: An image classification device, an image classification method, and an image classification program determine a classification label of an image of an object, by two-stage recognition based on a first model and a second model. If a first label calculated based on the image and the first model is not a predetermined label, the first label is set as the classification label of the image. If the first label is the predetermined label, a second label calculated based on the image and the second model is set as the classification label of the image.

Abstract: In a sheet creaser, a sheet set is pushed between a pair of folding rollers to fold the sheet set. Then, a re-pressing roller re-presses the sheet set, which has been folded by the folding rollers, by rolling along the crease. Pressure applied on the sheet set by the folding rollers is released when the re-pressing roller re-presses the sheet set.
