Abstract: A data processing apparatus acquires images captured by cameras. A data processing apparatus 2 calculates relative positional relationship between the camera that captured an image and a camera that is captured in the captured image, by image recognition of the captured image. The data processing apparatus 2 aggregates positional relationships calculated for the captured images, respectively, and by having one camera as reference, calculates the relative positions and directions of other cameras. Based on the calculated results, a user interface for supporting selection of the captured image by a user is generated.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a display device that can display relationships between a plurality of users in an easy-to-visually-acknowledge manner. The present invention is a system composed of a data sensing unit 1, a positional relationship detection unit 2, a user groping unit 3, and a positional relationship display unit 4. The user grouping unit 3 groups the users into a plurality of groups based on information pieces relating to positional relationships between the users, which are detected by the positional relationship detection unit 2. Based on information pieces relating to the groups extracted by the user grouping unit 3, the positional relationship display unit 4 arranges and displays the groups on a screen in conformity with a positional relationship between the groups.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus (100) includes: a temporary storage unit (5) that stores a cluster-element correspondence table showing correspondence between a cluster ID for identifying each of a plurality of clusters classified by the data processing apparatus and an element ID of element data belonging to the cluster identified by the cluster ID, and a group-cluster correspondence table showing correspondence between a group ID for identifying a group classified according to a user's subjective criterion and a cluster ID of a cluster belonging to the group identified by the group ID; a feature extraction unit (1) that extracts a feature value of newly added element data; an automatic classification processing unit (2) that determines a belonging cluster from the plurality of clusters, and updates a classification boundary condition defining a boundary of the belonging cluster according to a predetermined constraint; and a data management unit (6) that records an element ID of the newly added element data and

Abstract: A person cluster selection part selects one or more person clusters as representative person clusters in order of largest number of facial images included therein. A unit selection part selects, from each representative person cluster, (i) a unit having the highest likelihood as a first representative unit, and (ii) units in order of lowest likelihood as a second representative unit onward. A representative facial image selection part selects, from each representative unit, (i) a facial image having the highest likelihood as a first representative facial image, and (ii) facial images in order of lowest likelihood as a second representative facial image onward.

Abstract: An image analysis apparatus comprising: an identification unit operable to, in each of a plurality of scenes, identify one or more persons who appear in the scene; a scene evaluation value calculation unit operable to calculate a scene evaluation value for, among the plurality of scenes, each scene in which at least one person has been identified, the one person being included as one of persons identified by the identification unit; a scene selection unit operable to select, from among the plurality of scenes, one or more scenes that include the one person; and a person evaluation value calculation unit operable to calculate a person evaluation value for the one person by summating scene evaluation values of the scenes selected by the scene selection unit.

Abstract: Image browsing device and method for displaying a list so that the viewers can efficiently grasp the contents of a lot of images. The image browsing device includes an image classifying unit, a representative color extracting unit, and a representative color layout unit, and further includes a shooting date/time obtaining unit, an ordinary/extraordinary setting unit, a display mode managing unit, a representative color switching unit and the like. The image browsing device, with this structure, extracts a representative color for each image group which has been obtained by classifying images in accordance with a predetermined criterion, so that the representative color represents the image group. This enables viewers to grasp efficiently and panoramically the contents of a large number of images which are displayed in a display area of a limited size.
