Abstract: Provided is an image management apparatus including: an acquiring unit configured to acquire data of an image and positional information on a subject included in the image; a computation unit configured to compute a relative positional relationship between a plurality of subjects included in the image in at least a depth direction, based on the acquired positional information on the plurality of subjects included in the image; and a creating unit configured to create a comment data relevant to the image automatically, based on the computed relative positional relationship between the plurality of subjects.

Abstract: There is provided an image processing apparatus. An image data acquisition unit acquires a plurality of image data items each containing one or more objects. A position acquisition unit acquires respective positions, in a depth direction, of a plurality of objects contained in the plurality of image data items. An object recognition unit performs, with respect to each of the plurality of objects, object recognition processing of detecting a corresponding object candidate from among a plurality of object candidates. The object recognition unit performs the object recognition processing, based on the respective positions of the plurality of objects in the depth direction, in such a manner that the closer to a front side an object is located, the more preferentially the object recognition processing of that object is performed.

Abstract: A display control apparatus capable of promptly displaying a list of images corresponding to respective contents such that a user can quickly identify the images. The display control apparatus acquires data items of the respective contents or reduced images corresponding to the respective contents, and generates a list screen using the acquired data items or reduced images. The display control apparatus generates the list screen using display objects predetermined in association with attributes of the contents, respectively, before the data items or the reduced images are acquired.
