Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: acquire (i) integrated data in which data is allocated so as to integrate the data individually created and (ii) configuration information representing an allocation configuration of the data in the integrated data; specify data groups, each having the same data allocation configuration, from the integrated data based on the acquired configuration information; and estimate an attribute value of the integrated data using attribute values in the specified data groups.

Claims (34)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

acquire (i) integrated data in which data is allocated so as to integrate the data individually created and (ii) configuration information representing an allocation configuration of the data in the integrated data;

specify data groups, each having the same data allocation configuration, from the integrated data based on the acquired configuration information; and

estimate an attribute value of the integrated data using attribute values in the specified data groups.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the individually created data is image data, and

the processor is configured to

acquire (i) integrated image data in which page imposition is performed so as to integrate the individually created image data and (ii) the configuration information representing an imposition configuration of images in the integrated image data,

specify image data groups, each having the same image imposition configuration, from the integrated image data based on the acquired configuration information, and

estimate an attribute value of the integrated image data using attribute values in the specified image data groups.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to

estimate, for each image data group as an attribute value in the image data group, a value representing the number of converted pages per unit time when image data is converted into raster image data represented in a bitmap format, and

estimate, as the attribute value of the integrated image data, the number of converted pages per unit time when an entire image represented by the integrated image data is formed on a recording medium using the estimated values representing the numbers of converted pages per unit time in the image data groups.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein

the processor is configured to

estimate a value representing the number of converted pages per unit time in the image data group, using image data corresponding to the preset number of pages among pages constituted by the image data group.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is configured to

estimate, for each image data group as an attribute value in the image data group, a colorant consumption per page of pages constituted by the image data group, and

estimate, as an attribute value of the integrated image data, a colorant consumption consumed when an entire image represented by the integrated image data is formed on a recording medium from the estimated colorant consumption per page in each of the image data groups and the number of pages of an image constituted by each of the image data groups obtained from the configuration information.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein

the processor is configured to

estimates a colorant consumption per page in each image data group using image data corresponding to the preset number of pages among pages constituted by the image data group.

7 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute information processing, the information processing comprising:

acquiring (i) integrated data in which data is allocated so as to integrate the data individually created and (ii) configuration information representing an allocation configuration of the data in the integrated data;

specifying data groups, each having the same data allocation configuration, from the integrated data based on the acquired configuration information, and

estimating an attribute value of the integrated data using attribute values in the specified data groups.

8 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

means for

acquiring (i) integrated data in which data is allocated so as to integrate the data individually created and (ii) configuration information representing an allocation configuration of the data in the integrated data;

specifying data groups, each having the same data allocation configuration, from the integrated data based on the acquired configuration information; and

estimating an attribute value of the integrated data using attribute values in the specified data groups.
