Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to infer an object represented in image data to be processed, the object being inferred by using a learning model for inferring the object represented in the image data, and perform image processing on the image data with a correction level of the image processing for correcting the image data being varied on a basis of a probability of correctness in inference of the object.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, in accordance with a proportion of a black component with which to replace one or more non-black components that are color components other than the black component, replace the one or more non-black components with the black component for an image. The proportion of the black component is determined by brightness of the image, and when saturation of the image varies in a saturation range, the proportion decreases to a minimum value of the proportion with increasing saturation of the image and increases with increasing saturation of the image after the proportion decreases to the minimum value of the proportion.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a unit that obtains one or more pairs, each of which is constituted by images before and after correction, a unit that obtains changes in color, caused by the correction, of points in an image for the one or more pairs, a unit that obtains a distribution of the changes for the obtained pairs, and an extracting unit. When an interval having a frequency equal to or larger than a threshold determined for each interval exists at a distance of a tolerance width or more from an interval having a maximum frequency in the distribution, the extracting unit extracts, as learning data to learn a color change caused by the correction, the changes that are included in the interval having the maximum frequency but are not included in the interval having a frequency equal to or larger than the threshold determined for each interval.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an acceptance unit and a color conversion property creation unit. The acceptance unit accepts sets of image information each of which is composed of image information of an image before color conversion and image information of an image after color conversion. The color conversion property creation unit creates a color conversion property for color conversion of an image on the basis of pieces of image-capture setting information that are set for image-capture conditions used when the images before color conversion are captured.
