Image processing device, computer-readable recording device, and image processing method
First Claim
1. An image processing device, comprising:
- an interest area detector that detects interest areas included in time-series images captured in time series;
a calculation processing unit that calculates first feature amounts indicative of features of the interest areas;
an area classification unit that classifies the interest areas into area groups, based on the first feature amounts of the interest areas and the position in time for each of the captured time-series images that includes the interest areas;
an area selection unit that selects, based on second feature amounts of the interest areas in each of the area groups, one or more representative areas representing the interest areas belonging to each of the area groups, from among the interest areas belonging to each of the area groups; and
a representative image output unit that outputs one or more representative images including the representative areas in the time-series images.

Abstract
An image processing device includes: an interest area detector that detects interest areas included in a time-series image group captured in time series; a calculation processing unit that calculates feature amounts indicative of features of the interest areas; an area classification unit that classifies the interest areas into area groups, based on the feature amounts of the interest areas and time-series positions of time-series images including the interest areas; a group feature amount calculation unit that calculates a group feature amount indicative of a feature of each of the area groups; an area selection unit that selects one or more representative areas of the interest areas belonging to the area groups, from among the area groups; and a representative image output unit that outputs one or more representative images including the representative areas in the time-series image group.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable recording device with an executable program stored thereon, wherein the program instructs a processor to perform:
-
detecting interest areas included in time-series images captured in time series; calculating first feature amounts indicative of features of the interest areas; classifying the interest areas into area groups, based on the first feature amounts of the interest areas and the position in time for each of the captured time-series images that includes the interest areas; selecting, based on second feature amounts of the interest areas in each of the area groups, one or more representative areas representing the interest areas belonging to each of the area groups, from among the interest areas belonging to each of the area groups; and outputting one or more representative images including the representative areas in the time-series Images. - View Dependent Claims (19)
