  • Patent number: 11170206
    Abstract: Provided are an image processing device, an image processing method, a program, and a recording medium which are capable of classifying a plurality of persons appearing in an image set into groups. In an image processing device, an image processing method, a program, and a recording medium according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of persons appearing in an image set is determined. In a case where two or more persons among the plurality of persons appear in the image based on a determination result of the plurality of persons for each image included in the image set, co-occurrence relation information indicating that the two or more persons have a co-occurrence relation in the image is stored. A co-occurrence score indicating strength of the co-occurrence relation of two persons in the image set is calculated based on all the co-occurrence relation information items in the image for each permutation of the two persons of the plurality of persons.
