Abstract: To enable to accurately divide scanned image data obtained by scanning a plurality of documents en bloc into image data of each document. A pair of page images of scanned image data obtained by scanning a plurality of documents en bloc for each page is obtained sequentially and then, by using a neural network model, a document delimitation position is determined based on text data of the two page images constituting the pair. At the time of determination, a vector corresponding to tokens obtained by decomposing the text of each of the two page images constituting the pair is generated and input the vector to the neural network model. Then, the document delimitation position is determined based on a score output from the neural network model and representing the level of a possibility by a numerical value that the two page images constituting the pair belong to different documents, respectively.
