Abstract
An image reproducing apparatus includes a reproduction control unit which selects n out of given m input images as n output images by evaluating similarity among different input images of the m input images, and outputs the n output images onto a reproduction medium (m is an integer of two or larger, n is an integer of one or larger, and m>n holds).
Claims12
An image reproducing apparatus comprising a reproduction control unit which selects n out of given m input images as n output images by evaluating similarity among different input images of the m input images, and outputs the n output images onto a reproduction medium (m is an integer of two or larger, n is an integer of one or larger, and m>n holds).
An image reproducing apparatus comprising:
- an image classification unit which classifies given m input images into a plurality of categories by evaluating similarity among different input images of the m input images (m is an integer of two or larger);
- a priority order setting unit which performs a priority order setting process of setting priority orders of a plurality of input images when the plurality of input images belong to the same category;
- and
- an image output unit which outputs the m input images onto the reproduction medium in accordance with the priority orders set by performing the priority order setting process for each of the categories.
