Information management apparatus, information processing apparatus, and control method thereof

An image capture apparatus having a learning function, comprising:

• at least one processor or circuit configured to perform operations of the following units:
• a communication unit configured to communicate with an information management apparatus that manages supervisory data generated when the image capture apparatus executed the learning function;
• and
• a control unit configured to transmit the supervisory data used for the learning function of the image capture apparatus and to be shared with other image capture apparatus having a learning function, to the information management apparatus via the communication unit.

An image capture apparatus having a learning function, comprising

• at least one processor or circuit configured to perform operations of the following units:
• a communication unit configured to communicate with other image capture apparatus having a learning function;
• and
• a control unit configured to control the communication with the other image capture apparatus performed via the communication unit,
• wherein the control unit
• selects, from among a plurality of image capture apparatuses, a second image capture apparatus with which supervisory data generated when the image capture apparatus executed the learning function is to be shared, and
• performs control so that the supervisory data used for the learning function of the image capture apparatus is transmitted to the second image capture apparatus via the communication unit.

A method of controlling an information management apparatus that includes a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of image capture apparatuses each of which has a learning function and that controls the communication with the plurality of image capture apparatuses performed by the communication unit,

• the method comprising:
• if supervisory data generated when a first image capture apparatus executed a learning function is received from the first image capture apparatus via the communication unit, selecting, from among the plurality of image capture apparatuses, a second image capture apparatus, other than the first image capture apparatus, with which the supervisory data used for the learning function of the first image capture apparatus is to be shared;
• and
• transmitting the supervisory data used for the learning function of the first image capture apparatus to the second image capture apparatus.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method of controlling an information management apparatus that includes a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of image capture apparatuses each of which has a learning function and that controls the communication with the plurality of image capture apparatuses performed by the communication unit,

• the method comprising:
• if supervisory data generated when a first image capture apparatus executed a learning function is received from the first image capture apparatus via the communication unit, selecting, from among the plurality of image capture apparatuses, a second image capture apparatus, other than the first image capture apparatus, with which the supervisory data used for the learning function of the first image capture apparatus is to be shared;
• and
• transmitting the supervisory data used for the learning function of the first image capture apparatus to the second image capture apparatus.
