Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: obtain plural images each including any of plural objects; and determine, based on an analysis result regarding the plural objects in the plural images, according to which of two or more objects, among the plural objects, included in an image the image is corrected.

Claims (32)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

obtain an original of printed matter;

obtain a plurality of images each including any of a plurality of objects, from the original of printed matter;

determine to correct an image among the plurality of images that includes two or more objects among the plurality of objects based on an analysis result regarding the plurality of objects in the plurality of images in the original of printed matter, wherein the two or more objects comprise a specific object that is presented most among the plurality of images in the original of the printed matter and corresponds to a highest priority, wherein each of the plurality of objects corresponds to a different combination of types of image correction;

determine a combination of types of image correction corresponding to the specific object,

wherein a first object among the plurality of object corresponds to a first combination of types of image correction,

wherein a second object among the plurality of object corresponds to a second combination of types of image correction,

wherein the second object is different from the first object, and

wherein the second combination of types of image correction is different from the first combination of types of image correction; and

perform image correction on the entire image by using the determined combination of types of image correction.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the analysis result indicates importance of each of the plurality of objects in the plurality of images.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the analysis result indicates the importance of each object by a number of images including each object among the plurality of images.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor is configured to determine, in a case where the analysis result indicates that importance of the specific object among the two or more objects is greater than or equal to a criterion, to correct the image according to the specific object.

5. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

obtaining an original of printed matter;

obtaining a plurality of images each including any of a plurality of objects, from the original of printed matter;

determining to correct an image among the plurality of images that includes two or more objects among the plurality of objects based on an analysis result regarding the plurality of objects in the plurality of images in the original of printed matter, wherein the two or more objects comprise a specific object that is presented most among the plurality of images in the original of the printed matter and corresponds to a highest priority, wherein each of the plurality of objects corresponds to a different combination of types of image correction;

determining a combination of types of image correction corresponding to the specific object,

wherein a first object among the plurality of object corresponds to a first combination of types of image correction,

wherein a second object among the plurality of object corresponds to a second combination of types of image correction,

wherein the second object is different from the first object, and

wherein the second combination of types of image correction is different from the first combination of types of image correction; and

performing image correction on the entire image by using the determined combination of types of image correction.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine to correct another image among the plurality of images that includes an object specified by a user;

determine another combination of types of image correction corresponding to the object specified by the user; and

perform image correction on the another entire image by using the another determined combination of types of image correction.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine to correct another image among the plurality of images that includes an object specified by a user and the specific object corresponding to the highest priority;

determine another combination of types of image correction corresponding to the object specified by the user; and

perform image correction on the entire another image by using the another determined combination of types of image correction.
