IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18349009 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an image processing apparatus that uses machine learning to analyze image data and determine if it contains sensitive information.
- The apparatus has an input unit to receive image data.
- A learning unit performs machine learning processing on the image data using information contained in it.
- An estimation unit generates an estimation result based on the learned information using a learning model.
- A determination unit decides if the image data contains sensitive information.
- If the determination unit identifies sensitive information, the learning unit avoids performing machine learning on that specific information.
Original Abstract Submitted
An image processing apparatus includes an input unit configured to input image data, a learning unit configured to perform machine learning processing using information contained in the image data input by the input unit, an estimation unit configured to output an estimation result based on the information contained in the image data using a learning model generated by learning of the learning unit, and a determination unit configured to determine whether the image data input by the input unit contains sensitive information, wherein in a case where the determination unit determines that the image data input by the input unit contains the sensitive information, the learning unit does not perform machine learning on at least the sensitive information contained in the image data.
