  • Patent number: 10762246
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a matching design element determination unit and a creation unit. The matching design element determination unit determines a combination of matching design elements that meets a base impression evocation criterion, by combining plural design elements which define a design and correspond to a base style having the base impression and plural design elements which correspond to an auxiliary style having an auxiliary impression different from the base impression of the base style. The creation unit creates a design sample by using the combination of the matching design elements.

  • Publication number: 20170132251
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a storing unit, a receiving unit, and a creation unit. The storing unit stores affective information indicating an impression, and a design element defining designs and conforming to the impression indicated by the affective information, in association with each other. The receiving unit receives object affective information indicating an impression for an object of design creation. In a case where the object affective information is stored in the storing unit, the creation unit creates an output related to design for the object by using a design element associated with the object affective information. In a case where the object affective information is not stored in the storing unit, the creation unit creates the output by performing interpolation using a design element associated with other affective information which is stored in the storing unit and for which a relationship with the object affective information is defined.
