Imaging system, server, imaging device, imaging method, program, and recording medium having a function of assisting capturing of an image coincident with preference of a user

A server comprising:

• a processor,
• wherein the processor
• receives from an imaging device an image, a scene of the image, imaging information regarding capturing in a case where the image is captured, and reproduction information including at least one of a reproduction time and a number of times of reproduction, in a case where the image is reproduced in the imaging device after the capturing of the image,
• decides a second image coincident with preference of a user of the imaging device based on the reproduction information, from among first images having a same scene in the images, for each scene,
• creates a preference parameter table in which the each scene and first imaging information in a case where the second image coincident with the preference of the user is captured are associated with each other for the each scene, and
• transmits the preference parameter table to the imaging device.

An imaging device that captures images, and displays the images on a display, the imaging device comprising:

• a processor,
• wherein the processor
• analyzes the images to recognize scenes of the images,
• acquires imaging information regarding a capturing in a case where an image is captured,
• acquires reproduction information including at least one of a reproduction time and a number of times of reproduction, in a case where the image is reproduced on the display after the capturing of the image,
• transmits the image, the scene, the imaging information, and the reproduction information to a server,
• decides a second image coincident with preference of a user of the imaging device based on the reproduction information, from among first images having a same scene in the images, for each scene, and receives a preference parameter table created such that the each scene and first imaging information in a case where the second image coincident with the preference of the user is captured are associated with each other for the each scene from the server,
• selects second imaging information associated with a scene coincident with a scene of a third image to be captured next by the user from the preference parameter table, and
• captures the third image by using the second imaging information selected by the processor.

An imaging method comprising:

• analyzing, by a processor, images captured by the processor to recognize scenes of the images;
• acquiring, by the processor, imaging information regarding a capturing in a case where an image is captured;
• acquiring, by the processor, reproduction information including at least one of a reproduction time and a number of times of reproduction, in a case where the image is reproduced on a display of an imaging device after the capturing of the image;
• deciding, by the processor, a second image coincident with preference of a user of the imaging device based on the reproduction information, from among first images having a same scene in the images, for each scene;
• creating, by the processor, a preference parameter table in which the each scene and first imaging information in a case where the second image coincident with the preference of the user is captured are stored in association with each other for the each scene;
• selecting, by the processor, imaging information associated with a scene coincident with a scene of an image to be captured next by the user from the preference parameter table;
• and
• capturing, by the processor, an image by using the imaging information selected in a step of selecting the imaging information.
