Facial image display apparatus, facial image display method, and facial image display program
First Claim
1. A facial image display apparatus comprising:
- a memory, one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored on said memory to embody;
a detector that detects areas containing faces in a plurality of target images each displaying one or more faces, wherein each target image is a still image, wherein the detector identifies one or more persons corresponding to the areas containing faces and creates, using the areas containing faces, a path through the plurality of target images connecting the detected areas containing faces according to the one or more identified persons; and
a moving image creating unit that creates a moving image in which a camera moves through the plurality of target images according to the path, wherein the moving image contains the areas containing faces from the plurality of target images, wherein the moving image creating unit selects a pattern from among specific moving image pattern options for the path based on the number of detected facial areas.

Abstract
The present invention provides a facial image display apparatus that can display moving images concentrated on the face when images of people'"'"'s faces are displayed. A facial image display apparatus is provided wherein a facial area detecting unit (21) detects facial areas in which faces are displayed from within a target image for displaying a plurality of faces; a dynamic extraction area creating unit (22) creates, based on the facial areas detected by the facial area detecting means, a dynamic extraction area of which at least one of position and surface area varies over time in the target image; and a moving image output unit (27) sequentially extracts images in the dynamic extraction area and outputs the extracted images as a moving image.
