Image processing system, image processing method, computer readable medium and computer data signal
View Patent ↗An image processing system includes an area extracting unit, an area relation extracting unit, a relation analyzing unit and an image display unit. The area extracting unit extracts areas from an input image. The area relation extracting unit extracts a relation between the areas extracted by the area extracting unit. The relation analyzing unit analyzes the relation between the areas extracted by the area relation extracting unit. The image display unit displays the image in accordance with an analysis result by the relation analyzing unit.
1. An image processing system comprising:
an image input unit that inputs an image;
an area extracting unit that extracts areas from the image input by the image input unit;
an area relation extracting unit that extracts a relation between the areas extracted by the area extracting unit;
a storing unit that stores the relation between the areas extracted by the area relation extracting unit and the image input by the image input unit in association with each other;
a relation analyzing unit that analyzes the relation between the areas stored by the storing unit; and
an image display unit that displays the associated area stored in the storing unit in accordance with an analysis result by the relation analyzing unit on an image screen, wherein
the image display unit displays an explanation in characters, the explanation (i) is generated based on the analysis result and (ii) relating to another of the areas that is not displayed on an image screen and that is adjacent to the displayed area in the input image.
2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the area relation extracting unit extracts position information of each area, a kind of each area and index information of each area.
3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the image display unit displays the explanation in accordance with a positional relation between the one area currently displayed on the image screen and the other area that is not displayed on the image screen.
4. The system according to claim 3 , wherein the image display unit changes a form of the explanation in accordance with the relation between the areas.
5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the area relation extracting unit extracts the area relation extracting unit extracts position information of each area, a kind of each area and index information of each area
the image display unit displays, as the explanation, the kinds of the area that is not displayed on the image screen, the index information of the area that is not displayed on the image screen and deformation of the area that is not displayed on the image screen.
6. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a process for image processing, the image processing comprising:
extracting areas from an input image;
extracting a relation between the extracted areas;
analyzing the extracted relation; and
displaying one of the areas in accordance with an analysis result on an image screen, and
displaying an explanation in characters, the explanation (i) being generated based on the analysis result and (ii) relating to another of the areas that is not displayed on the image screen and that is adjacent to the displayed area in the input image.
7. An image processing method comprising:
extracting areas from an input image;
extracting a relation between the extracted areas;
analyzing the extracted relation; and
displaying one of the areas in accordance with an analysis result on an image screen, and
displaying an explanation in characters, the explanation (i) being generated based on the analysis result and (ii) relating to another of the areas that is not displayed on the image screen and that is adjacent to the displayed area in the input image.
