INFORMATION GENERATION APPARATUS, INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18327677 titled 'INFORMATION GENERATION APPARATUS, INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information generation apparatus that can generate metadata on an object detected from a captured image. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The apparatus has an acquisition unit that acquires a captured image.
  • It also has a generation unit that generates metadata on an object detected from the image.
  • The generation unit associates an object index for each segmented area of the image with a label index corresponding to integrated information obtained from object detection results in each segmented area.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Object recognition and labeling in image processing systems.
  • Enhancing search capabilities in image databases.
  • Improving object tracking and identification in surveillance systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficiently generating metadata for objects detected in images.
  • Enabling accurate indexing and labeling of objects in segmented areas of an image.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved organization and categorization of image data.
  • Enhanced search and retrieval capabilities for specific objects in images.
  • More accurate object tracking and identification in various applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information generation apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a captured image, and a generation unit configured to generate metadata on an object detected from the image, wherein the generation unit associates an object index for each of a plurality of segmented areas obtained by segmenting the image with a label index corresponding to integrated information obtained by integrating object detection results in each of the segmented areas in the metadata.
