IMAGING SUPPORT APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING SUPPORT METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18462996 titled 'IMAGING SUPPORT APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING SUPPORT METHOD, AND PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an imaging support apparatus that uses a neural network to identify subjects in captured images and performs imaging-related processing based on the influence degree of the neural network's identification.

  • The apparatus includes a processor and memory for image processing.
  • The processor inputs a captured image into a neural network.
  • The neural network identifies the subject in the captured image.
  • The processor performs imaging-related processing based on the influence degree of the neural network's identification.
  • The imaging-related processing can be adjusted based on the accuracy of the neural network's identification.

Potential Applications

  • Image recognition and classification in various fields such as surveillance, photography, and medical imaging.
  • Automated image processing and editing based on subject identification.
  • Enhancing image search and retrieval systems by accurately identifying subjects in images.

Problems Solved

  • Manual identification of subjects in images can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
  • Traditional image processing techniques may not accurately identify subjects in complex images.
  • Lack of automated processing based on subject identification limits the efficiency and accuracy of image-related tasks.

Benefits

  • Improved accuracy and efficiency in subject identification in images.
  • Automated image processing based on subject identification saves time and reduces errors.
  • Enables advanced image search and retrieval capabilities based on subject identification.


Original Abstract Submitted

There is provided an imaging support apparatus including a processor and a memory built into or connected to the processor. The processor inputs a captured image to a neural network to cause the neural network to identify a subject that is included in the captured image, and performs imaging-related processing according to an influence degree on identification with the neural network performed with respect to the captured image.
