First Claim
1. An image combining apparatus, comprising:
- a target image analysis information acquisition device for acquiring target image analysis information which includes at least two items from among brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, color balance and spatial frequency of a target image to be combined with a template image;
a template image detection device for finding a template image for which a first degree of resemblance is equal to or greater than a first threshold value, wherein the first degree of resemblance is resemblance between first target image analysis information in the target image analysis information acquired by said target image analysis information acquisition device and first template image analysis information, which is of a type identical with that of the first target image analysis information, in template image analysis information consisting of brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, color balance and spatial frequency of the template image, and moreover for which a second degree of resemblance is less than a second threshold value, wherein the second degree of resemblance is resemblance between second target image analysis information in the target image analysis information acquired by said target image analysis information acquisition device and second template image analysis information, which is of a type identical with that of the second target image analysis information, in the template image analysis information;
a combining device for combining the target image with the template image found by said template image detection device; and
a first target image impression determination device for determining one or multiple impressions given by the target image based upon the target image analysis information acquired by said target image analysis information acquisition device;
wherein said template image detection device finds a template image for which the first degree of resemblance is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, the second degree of resemblance is less than the second threshold value and, moreover, which gives the impression determined by said first target image impression determination device.

Abstract
A template image is found and a target image is combined with a combining area of the found template image. The template image found has first template image analysis information, which is of a type identical with that of first target image analysis information in target image analysis information consisting of the brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, color balance and spatial frequency of the target image, and for which the degree of resemblance is equal to or greater than a first threshold value, and moreover has second template image analysis information, which is of a type identical with that of second target image analysis information in target image analysis information, and for which the degree of resemblance is less than a second threshold value.
