Abstract
An image processing apparatus that enables easy setting of metadata of image data. The image processing apparatus obtains image data associated with a selected work. A key candidate is identified from t image data based on one or more key types defined according to the selected work. A value candidate corresponding to the identified key candidate is identified based on a value type rule and a value search area rule which are defined for each of the one or more key types, and the identified value candidate is set as the metadata of the image data.
Claims7
An image processing apparatus that sets metadata of image data, comprising:
- at least one memory that stores a program;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the program to perform:
- identifying a key candidate from the image data based on one or more key types defined according to a selected work;
- identifying a value candidate corresponding to the identified key candidate based on a value type rule and a value search area rule which are defined for each of the one or more key types;
- and
- setting the identified value candidate as the metadata of the image data.
A method for setting metadata of image data, comprising:
- identifying a key candidate from the image data based on one or more key types defined according to a selected work;
- identifying a value candidate corresponding to the identified key candidate based on a value type rule and a value search area rule which are defined for each of the one or more key types;
- and
- setting the identified value candidate as the metadata of the image data.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer-executable program for causing a computer to perform:
- identifying a key candidate from image data based on one or more key types defined according to a selected work;
- identifying a value candidate corresponding to the identified key candidate based on a value type rule and a value search area rule which are defined for each of the one or more key types;
- and
- setting the identified value candidate as metadata of the image data.
