Image Processing Apparatus Contextual Text Generation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current technologies for creating photo albums lack the ability to generate appropriate text related to images, which enhances the visual content and user engagement by describing relationships between subjects, owners, creators, and viewers within the images.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus and method that acquires images and related matter information to generate text based on relationships between subjects, owners, creators, and viewers, using a processor configured to analyze images, apply pre-determined templates, and employ trained models to produce contextually relevant notes or descriptions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If photo album creation technology is used to organize images, then images can be arranged systematically, but appropriate text related to images and relationships between subjects cannot be generated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary text generation unit that mediates between the image data and the photo album output. This unit analyzes relationships between subjects in images and generates appropriate text descriptions, thereby preserving relationship information without requiring complex manual intervention throughout the entire system.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically generating text descriptions of image content and relationships between subjects without requiring user input. The text generation unit autonomously analyzes image data, identifies subjects and their relationships, and produces contextual text that enhances the photo album.
2Ease of operation
If manual text input is required for photo albums, then text can be customized, but user workload and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The text generation unit performs self-service by automatically creating text descriptions based on image analysis. The system identifies subjects, determines their relationships, and generates contextual text without requiring user input, thereby eliminating time consumption while maintaining customization through algorithmic analysis.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-analyzing image content and generating text descriptions before the photo album is finalized. This advance text generation eliminates the need for subsequent manual text input, reducing both user workload and time consumption in the overall process.
3Loss of information
If image analysis is performed to understand content, then relevant text can be generated, but processing complexity and computational requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies extraction by isolating the essential task of text generation from the overall photo album creation process. The text generation unit extracts only the necessary image content information needed for text description, rather than performing comprehensive image analysis, thereby reducing processing complexity while maintaining effective content understanding.
