Abstract
An image processing system and an image processing method. The image processing system includes: an image analysis engine configured to analyze an input image and generate metadata about the input image; an indexing engine configured to structuralize and organize the metadata and generate index data based on the metadata; a search engine configured to extract index data matching a search condition and image data corresponding to the index data matching the search condition, from the input image; and a browsing engine configured to generate a heatmap based on the extracted index data and image data and display the heatmap and an image matching the search condition on a screen.
Claims17
An image processing system comprising at least one hardware processor to implement:
- an image analysis engine configured to analyze an input image and generate metadata about the input image;
- an indexing engine configured to structuralize and organize the metadata and generate index data based on the metadata;
- a search engine configured to extract index data matching a search condition and image data corresponding to the index data matching the search condition, from the input image;
- and
- a browsing engine configured to generate a heatmap based on the extracted index data and image data and display the heatmap and an image matching the search condition on a screen,
- wherein the image analysis engine is configured to classify objects included in the input image, analyze motions or lines of movement of the objects, and perform cumulative hashing on a result of analyzing the motions of the objects per unit time.
An image processing system comprising:
- a heatmap generator, implemented by using at least one hardware processor, configured to divide a region of an image matching a search condition into predetermined units, calculate an amount of motions in divided regions from index data to establish priorities, allocate different indications according to the established priorities to generate a heatmap, and apply smoothing filtering to the heatmap to reconfigure the heatmap;
- and
- a display configured to display the reconfigured heatmap and the image matching the search condition,
- wherein the heatmap generator is further configured to classify objects included in the image, analyze motions or lines of movement of the objects, and perform cumulative hashing on a result of analyzing the motions of the objects per unit time, and
- wherein the index data are generated based on a result of the cumulative hashing.
The image processing system of 7, wherein the heatmap generator comprises:
- a summarized image generator, implemented by using the at least one hardware processor, if a point is selected on the reconfigured heatmap, configured to generate a summarized image corresponding to the selected point.
An image processing method comprising:
- analyzing an input image and generating metadata about the input image;
- structuralizing and organizing the metadata and generating index data based on the metadata;
- extracting index data matching a search condition and image data corresponding to the index data matching the search condition, from the input image;
- and
- generating a heatmap based on the extracted index data and image data, and displaying the heatmap and an image matching the search condition on a screen,
- wherein the analyzing comprises:
- classifying objects included in the input image and analyzing motions or lines of movement of the objects;
- and
- performing cumulative hashing on a result of analyzing motions of the objects per unit time.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a computer program for executing an image processing method, the image processing method comprising:
- analyzing an input image and generating metadata about the input image;
- structuralizing and organizing the metadata and generating index data based on the metadata;
- extracting index data matching a search condition and image data corresponding to the index data matching the search condition, from the input image;
- and
- generating a heatmap based on the extracted index data and image data, and displaying the heatmap and an image matching the search condition on a screen,
- wherein the analyzing comprises:
- classifying objects included in the input image and analyzing motions or lines of movement of the objects;
- and
- performing cumulative hashing on a result of analyzing motions of the objects per unit time.
