Patent Images
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a memory; and
a processor in communication with the memory, the processor configured to provide;
a recognition unit configured to recognize a human object included in a captured image data;
an identification unit configured to identify the human object included in the image data;
an estimation unit configured to estimate a degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information, based on a recognition result obtained by the recognition unit, and switching to a different method, by changing an evaluation function, for estimating the degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information, based on the human object identified by the identification unit;
an acquisition unit configured to acquire information as a target to be presented to the human object;
a generation unit configured to generate information to be presented to the human object from the information acquired by the acquisition unit, based on the degree of interest estimated by the estimation unit; and
a control unit configured to cause an output unit to output the information generated by the generation unit.

Abstract
A human object recognition unit recognizes a human object included in a captured image data. A degree-of-interest estimation unit estimates a degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information, based on a recognition result obtained by the human object recognition unit. An information acquisition unit acquires information as a target to be presented to the human object. An information editing unit generates information to be presented to the human object from the information acquired by the information acquisition unit, based on the degree of interest estimated by the degree-of-interest estimation unit. An information display unit outputs the information generated by the information editing unit.

13. A method for information processing performed by an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
-
recognizing a human object included in a captured image data; identifying the human object included in the image data; estimating a degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information based on an obtained recognition result, and switching to a different method, by changing an evaluation function, for estimating the degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information, based on the identified human object; acquiring information as target to be presented to the human object; generating information to be presented to the human object from the acquired information based on the estimated degree of interest; and causing an output unit to output the generated information.

14. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute processing comprising:
-
recognizing a human object included in a captured image data; identifying the human object included in the image data; estimating a degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information based on an obtained recognition result, and switching to a different method, by changing an evaluation function, for estimating the degree of interest of the human object in acquiring information, based on the identified human object; acquiring information as target to be presented to the human object; generating information to be presented to the human object from the acquired information based on the estimated degree of interest; and causing an output unit to output the generated information.
