Makeup trend analyzing apparatus, makeup trend analyzing method, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing makeup trend analyzing program

1. A makeup trend analyzing apparatus comprising:

a processor

that acquires a facial feature point within a makeup facial image that is an image of a face on which makeup is applied; and

that acquires a makeup feature point within the makeup facial image;

a makeup information generator that generates, based on the facial feature point and the makeup feature point, makeup information quantitatively indicating positional information of the makeup feature point in a face coordinate system that takes the facial feature point as a reference, wherein the makeup information includes a vector, in the face coordinate system, that takes as a start point a predetermined one of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point and takes as an end point the other of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point;

wherein the processor also

analyzes the makeup information acquired from a plurality of the makeup facial images, and determines a makeup trend; and

performs an information output process according to a determination result of the makeup trend.

2. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the makeup trend includes information about a tendency of the vector in the plurality of makeup facial images.

3. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor as part of its facial-feature-point acquiring, extracts the facial feature point from the makeup facial image, and

the processor as part of its makeup-feature-point acquiring extracts the makeup feature point from the makeup facial image.

4. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor further acquires the makeup facial image and attribute information indicating an attribute of the makeup facial image, wherein

the processor as part of its makeup-trend determination determines the makeup trend for each attribute indicated by the attribute information.

5. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

the makeup information includes time information indicating a time of application of the makeup in the makeup facial image,

the makeup trend includes information about makeup that is estimated to come into fashion, and

the information output process includes a process of presenting the makeup that is estimated to come into fashion.

6. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor further collects, through a network communicator, the makeup facial image from a plurality of terminals that each generate the makeup facial image, wherein

the information output process includes a process of transmitting makeup trend information indicating the makeup that is estimated to come into fashion, to a terminal.

7. The makeup trend analyzing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the makeup information generator holds in advance or acquires analysis target calculation information defining an analysis target for which the makeup trend is to be analyzed, and generates the makeup information based on the analysis target calculation information that is held or acquired.

8. A makeup trend analyzing method comprising:

executing with a processor the instructions stored in a memory to

acquire a facial feature point within a makeup facial image that is an image of a face on which makeup is applied; and

acquire a makeup feature point within the makeup facial image;

generating with a makeup information generator, based on the facial feature point and the makeup feature point, makeup information quantitatively indicating positional information of the makeup feature point in a face coordinate system that takes the facial feature point as a reference, wherein the makeup information includes a vector, in the face coordinate system, that takes as a start point a predetermined one of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point and takes as an end point the other of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point;

wherein the processor also

analyzes the makeup information acquired from a plurality of the makeup facial images, and determine a makeup trend; and

performs an information output process according to a determination result of the makeup trend.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a makeup trend analyzing program instructing a processor to execute the makeup trend analyzing program to:

acquire a facial feature point within a makeup facial image that is an image of a face on which makeup is applied; and

acquire a makeup feature point within the makeup facial image;

wherein a makeup information generator generates, based on the facial feature point and the makeup feature point, makeup information quantitatively indicating positional information of the makeup feature point in a face coordinate system that takes the facial feature point as a reference, wherein the makeup information includes a vector, in the face coordinate system, that takes as a start point a predetermined one of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point and takes as an end point the other of the facial feature point and the makeup feature point;

wherein the program also instructs the processor to execute the makeup trend analyzing program to

analyze the makeup information acquired from a plurality of the makeup facial images, and determining a makeup trend; and

perform an information output process according to a determination result of the makeup trend.
