1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:

  • a first display control unit executed by a processor, configured to display an image captured by an image capturing section;

    a first output unit executed by the processor, configured to, when a similarity indicating a degree of similarity between an image of a commodity captured by the image capturing section and a reference image of each commodity is more than or equal to a first threshold value, determine a commodity of the reference image whose similarity is more than or equal to the first threshold value as the captured commodity without causing an operator to select one commodity from a candidate of the captured commodity and output commodity recognition information corresponding to the commodity of the reference image;

    a second display control unit executed by the processor, configured to, when the similarity is less than the first threshold value, display the commodity of the reference image whose similarity is less than the first threshold value as a candidate of the captured commodity;

    a selection acceptance unit executed by the processor, configured to accept a selection of one commodity from the candidate; and

    a second output unit executed by the processor, configured to determine, in response to the selection acceptance unit accepting the selection, the selected commodity as the captured commodity and output the commodity recognition information of the selected commodity, whereinwhen the captured commodity is determined, the first display control unit displays an image representing the determined commodity in place of the image captured by the image capturing section.
