AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies for converting monochrome images into color images do not consistently produce high-quality color images that meet user satisfaction, as they rely on learning models that may not align with individual user preferences.

Method used

An image processing device that includes a display unit, an operation unit, a document reading unit, a color image generation unit, and a control unit. This device generates multiple color document images based on a learning model, displays them as preview images, allows user selection, and updates the learning model with the selected images as new learning data to improve alignment with user preferences.

Benefits of technology

Enables the generation of color images with high user satisfaction by iteratively refining the learning model based on user feedback, ensuring that the color images produced better match individual user preferences.

Abstract

To enable generation of a color image with a high user satisfaction level from a monochromatic image.SOLUTION: An image formation device 1 comprises: a color image generation part 101 that generates a plurality of color original images of an output candidate from a monochromatic original image indicating a monochromatic image obtained by reading an original by an original reading part 5 on the basis of a learning model that the monochromatic image is colored; a control part 100 that displays the plurality of color original images generated by the color image generation part 101 to a display part 473 as a preview image of the original and performs processing for outputting each color original image selected by a selection instruction received by an operation part 47 from the plurality of displayed color original images; and an update part 102 that feeds back each color original image selected by the selection instruction as new learning data of the learning model and updates the learning model.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
