Abstract
An image processing device has a query image specification unit that specifies a query image in accordance with designation by a user, an object detection unit that detects an object in the query image, a synthetic query image generation unit that synthesizes a plurality of objects in the objects detected by the object detection unit to generate a synthetic query image including the plurality of objects, and an image retrieval unit that retrieves an image similar to the synthetic query image based on the synthetic query image.
Claims7
An image processing device comprising:
- a query image specification unit that specifies a query image in accordance with designation by a user;
- an object detection unit that detects an object in the query image;
- a synthetic query image generation unit that synthesizes a plurality of objects in the objects detected by the object detection unit to generate a synthetic query image including the plurality of objects;
- and
- an image retrieval unit that retrieves an image similar to the synthetic query image based on the synthetic query image.
An image processing method comprising:
- a query image specification step of specifying a query image in accordance with designation by a user;
- an object detection step of detecting an object in the query image;
- a synthetic query image generation step of synthesizing a plurality of objects in the objects detected in the object detection step to generate a synthetic query image including the plurality of objects;
- and
- an image retrieval step of retrieving an image similar to the synthetic query image based on the synthetic query image.
A control program stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium for causing a computer to perform:
- a query image specification step of specifying a query image in accordance with designation by a user;
- an object detection step of detecting an object in the query image;
- a synthetic query image generation step of synthesizing a plurality of objects in the objects detected in the object detection step to generate a synthetic query image including the plurality of objects;
- and
- an image retrieval step of retrieving an image similar to the synthetic query image based on the synthetic query image.
