LAYOUT SUPPORT SYSTEM, LAYOUT SUPPORT APPARATUS, INFORMATION ACCUMULATION APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18242275 titled 'LAYOUT SUPPORT SYSTEM, LAYOUT SUPPORT APPARATUS, INFORMATION ACCUMULATION APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The invention described in the abstract is a layout support system that improves efficiency in generating layouts by utilizing image feature vectors and layout information stored in a database.

  • Information accumulation apparatus extracts image feature vectors of existing contents and stores them in a database.
  • Layout support apparatus detects similarities between stored image feature vectors and a comparative feature vector for a target content to match layout information.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various industries such as graphic design, web development, interior design, and advertising to streamline the layout creation process.

Problems Solved

1. Time-consuming manual layout design process. 2. Inefficient use of resources in generating layouts.

Benefits

1. Increased efficiency in layout generation. 2. Consistent and cohesive design elements. 3. Reduction in human error in layout creation.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing Layout Generation for Improved Efficiency

Unanswered Questions

Original Abstract Submitted

This invention contributes to improvement in efficiency in generation of a layout. A layout support system () includes: an information accumulation apparatus () that extracts image feature vectors of a plurality of existing contents and stores, in a database, the image feature vectors in association with pieces of layout information; and a layout support apparatus () that detects, on the basis of similarities between the image feature vectors stored in the database and a comparative feature vector generated for a target content, a piece of layout information matching the target content, from among the pieces of layout information stored in the database.
