  The present invention relates to an electronic album template selection system, an electronic album template selection method, an electronic album template selection program, and a recording medium storing the program.

  In an event such as a wedding, since many images are taken, it is a relatively difficult task to select an image to be used for the album from among the many images. For this purpose, there is a technique that calculates the feature amount of a scene represented by an image, classifies a plurality of images into an image group for each scene of the event, and arranges the scenes in the event appearance order (Patent Document 1). In addition, when a plurality of layouts are used, a layout in which similar layouts are not consecutive (Patent Document 2), a layout that can be matched as a whole layout (Patent Document 3), and a template that matches an image to be arranged (Patent Document 4) is also available. In addition, there is a technique that allows an image to be harmonized with a decorative image when an image is combined with a template (Patent Document 5).

Patent No. 4315344 JP 2014-16816 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2014-16800 Patent No. 4762827 JP 2005-94424 A

  The thing of patent document 1 only arranges the image for every scene of an event. In addition, in the ones described in Patent Documents 2, 3, and 4, only one template is considered. Furthermore, Patent Document 5 merely considers the balance between an image to be combined with a template and a decorative image. In any of Patent Documents 1 to 5, it is not considered to consider the overall balance when generating an album using a plurality of images.

  An object of the present invention is to generate an album in which the overall balance is achieved using a plurality of images.

  The electronic album template selection system according to the present invention comprises a plurality of page templates, each page template has an image pasting area defined therein, and at least one image pasting area defines an attribute of an image to be pasted. The degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image pasted on the image pasting area is calculated for a plurality of image pasting areas defined in the electronic album template and the degree of coincidence calculated Attribute coincidence calculating means for calculating the sum of the two, calculation processing control means for performing the sum calculation processing in the attribute matching degree calculating means for a plurality of electronic album templates, and the sum calculated under the control of the calculation processing control means One or more electronic album templates in descending order Characterized in that it comprises an electronic album template selection means for-option.

  The present invention also provides an electronic album template selection method suitable for the electronic album template selection system. That is, in this method, the attribute matching degree calculation means is composed of a plurality of page templates, each page template defines an image pasting area, and at least one image pasting area is an image pasted. For the electronic album template for which the attribute is defined, the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image pasted to the image pasting area is calculated for a plurality of image pasting areas defined in the electronic album template The sum of the matching degrees is calculated, the calculation processing control means performs the sum calculation processing in the attribute matching degree calculation means for a plurality of electronic album templates, and the electronic album template selection means controls the calculation processing control means. One or more electronic album templates with large sum calculated based on It is intended to select.

  The present invention also provides a computer-readable program for controlling the computer of the electronic album template selection system and a recording medium storing such a program.

  For example, the attribute coincidence calculating means calculates the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image pasted on the image pasting area by matching the page order of the electronic album template and the image capturing order.

  The plurality of images to be pasted in the plurality of image pasting areas are classified into a plurality of groups corresponding to the number of the plurality of page templates according to the photographing order, and the attributes and images of the images included in the group corresponding to the number of the plurality of page templates The degree of coincidence with the attribute of the pasting area may be calculated.

  Electronic album template designating means for designating at least one electronic album template among one or more electronic album templates selected by the electronic album template selecting means, and at least one electronic album template designated by the electronic album template designating means Decoration style display means for displaying one or more decoration styles for performing decoration corresponding to the above, decoration style reception means for accepting designation of one of the decoration styles displayed by the decoration style display means, and decoration style You may further provide the decoration means which decorates the electronic album template designated by the electronic album template designation | designated means with the decoration style received by the reception means.

  For example, the attribute coincidence calculating means performs a process of calculating the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image and the attribute of the image pasting region for a plurality of electronic album templates by changing the combination of the image and the image pasting region.

  The better the image quality, the higher the degree of matching.

  According to the present invention, the electronic album template is composed of a plurality of page templates. An image pasting area is defined in the page template, and an attribute of an image to be pasted is defined in at least one image pasting area of the electronic album template. For such an electronic album template, the sum of the degrees of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image pasted on the image pasting area is calculated. The sum calculation process is performed for a plurality of electronic album templates, and one or more electronic album templates having a large calculated sum are selected. The image is pasted in the image pasting area so that the correspondence between the image when the sum is large and the image pasting area is matched to the image pasting area of the electronic album template selected in this way. An electronic album is created.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an electrical configuration of an electronic album template selection system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  The overall operation of the electronic album template selection system 1 is controlled by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 2.

  The electronic album template selection system 1 includes a display device 3 that displays a selected electronic album template on a display screen 3, a memory 4 that stores data, and a CD (Compact that accesses data recorded on a compact disc 5). Disc) drive 6 is included. The electronic album template selection system 1 includes a memory card reader / writer 7 that reads an image file from a memory card 8 that stores an image file representing an image and records the image file on the memory card 8, and an electronic album template. An input device 9 for giving various commands to the selection system 1 is also included. The electronic album template selection system 1 further includes an HD (hard disk) 11, an HD (hard disk) drive 10 that accesses the HD 11, a communication device 12 for communicating with other computers, and a timer 13. .

  When the memory card 8 is loaded in the electronic album template selection system 1 and the image file is read by the memory card reader / writer 7, an image represented by the read image file is pasted as described below to generate an electronic album. A suitable electronic album template is selected. When an image file is stored not only in the memory card 8 but also in the compact disk 5 or other medium, the image file stored in the medium is read. The electronic album template selection system 1 will be provided with a reading device suitable for reading an image file stored on a medium. When an image file is provided to the electronic album template selection system 1 via a network such as the Internet, the image file is received by the communication device 12, and the received image file is provided to the memory 4 for storage. Is done. An electronic album template suitable for pasting an image represented by the image file stored in this manner is selected.

  The compact disk 5 (recording medium) stores a program that can be read by the CPU 2 (computer) of the electronic album template selection system 1 for controlling processing to be described later. By loading the compact disc 5 into the electronic album template selection system 1, the program stored in the compact disc 5 is installed in the electronic album template selection system 1. The program may be transmitted over a network such as the Internet. A program is received by the communication device 12, and the received program is installed in the electronic album template selection system 1.

  FIG. 2 is an example of an electronic album template.

  The HD 11 stores a large number of electronic album templates, and an electronic album template 20 is shown in FIG. 2 as an example.

  The electronic album template 20 (which is the same for other electronic album templates stored in the HD 11) is composed of three (a plurality of) page templates 21, 22 and 23. The electronic album template 20 may be composed of two or four or more page templates. In the page templates 21, 22 and 23, two spread pages are regarded as one page and are set as the page templates 21, 22 or 23, but the left or right page of the two spread pages may be used as the page template. If the page on the left or right of the two spread pages is regarded as a page template, the electronic album template is composed of six page templates.

  The page template 21 defines seven image pasting areas A11 to A17. The page template 22 defines 12 image pasting areas from image pasting areas A21 to A32. The page template 23 defines five image pasting areas A41 to A45. Thus, each of the page templates 21, 22 and 23 defines a plurality (or one) of image pasting areas A11 to A17, A21 to A32 and A41 to A45.

  Attributes are assigned to these image pasting areas A11 to A17, A21 to A32, and A41 to A45, respectively.

  FIG. 3 is an example of an image pasting area attribute table for the electronic album template 20. The image pasting area attribute table is stored in HD11.

  The image pasting area attribute table stores identification data of the image pasting area included in the page template (the sign of the image pasting area is used as identification data) corresponding to the page template. In addition, the attribute assigned to the image pasting area specified by the identification data of the image pasting area is also stored corresponding to the identification data of the image pasting area. For example, “two people”, “man and woman”, “dress”, “stairs”, “outdoor”, and the like are stored as attributes of the image pasting area A11 included in the page template 21. The attribute need not be defined for all of the plurality of image pasting regions defined in the page template, and it is sufficient that the attribute is defined for at least one image pasting region. For example, an attribute is defined in at least one image pasting area among a plurality of image pasting areas A11 to A17 defined in the page template 21. In addition, attributes are defined in at least one image pasting area among the plurality of image pasting areas A21 to A32 defined in the page template 22. Similarly, an attribute is defined in at least one image pasting area among a plurality of image pasting areas A41 to A45 defined in the page template 23. However, it is only necessary that an attribute is assigned to at least one image pasting area among the plurality of image pasting areas A11 to A45 defined in the electronic album template 20. The attribute assigned to the image pasting area indicates that it is suitable to paste an image having such an attribute. For example, in the image pasting area A11, an image is pasted where the subject is “two people”, “man and woman”, “dress”, “stairs”, and “outdoors”. It is indicated by the attribute of the image pasting area A11 that it is suitable.

  The image pasting area attribute table shown in FIG. 3 is for the electronic album template 20 shown in FIG. 2, but the same image pasting is applied to other electronic album templates stored in the HD 11 of the electronic album template selection system 1. An area attribute table is stored in HD11.

  4 to 6 are flowcharts showing the processing procedure of the electronic album template selection system 1.

  A memory card 8 storing an image (image file) to be pasted on the electronic album template (a medium other than the memory card 8 may be used as long as the image is stored, or may be downloaded from the network) is stored in the electronic album template. It is loaded into the selection system 1. Then, the image stored in the memory card 8 is read by the memory card reader / writer 7 and image analysis is performed by the CPU 2 (step 31). Subject information such as the type of subject and scene included in the image can be obtained by image analysis. Also, if the subject is a person, subject information such as the number of people, gender, and what they are wearing can be obtained. The obtained subject information is added to the image as an attribute of the image (step 32). For example, the attribute of the image is given to the image by storing it in the header of the image file representing the image. Of course, if the attribute is stored in the header of the image file, image analysis is not always necessary. The attribute may not be stored in the header of the image file. Even if the attribute exists separately from the image, it may be stored in the memory card 8 in the form of a table corresponding to the image, for example.

  FIG. 7 is an example of an image stored in the memory card 8.

  In FIG. 7, the images I <b> 1 to I <b> 8 are illustrated, but more images are stored in the memory card 8. In FIG. 7, image attributes are shown beside each of the images I1 to I8. These image attributes are obtained by image analysis. For example, the attributes of the image I1 are “two people”, “man and woman”, “dress”, “outdoor”, and the like.

  When an attribute is given to an image, an album theme selection screen for selecting a plurality of electronic album themes is displayed on the display device 3 of the electronic album template selection system 1.

  FIG. 8 is an example of an album theme selection screen.

  Album themes include "wedding", "entrance ceremony", "graduation ceremony", "athletic meet". On the display screen 50 of the display device 3, a button B <b> 1 in which characters “wedding” are represented, a button B <b> 2 in which characters “entrance ceremony” are represented, and a button in which characters “graduation ceremony” are represented A button B4 displaying characters B3 and "athletic meet" is displayed. The user clicks one of the buttons B1 to B4 using the input device 9 to select the album theme specified by the clicked button (step 33 in FIG. 4). In this embodiment, it is assumed that “wedding” is selected as the theme. It goes without saying that other themes may be selected. Also, an album theme that does not appear in FIG. 8 may be selected. When the album theme is selected, an album characteristic selection screen for selecting album characteristics is displayed on the display device 3 of the electronic album template selection system 1.

  FIG. 9 is an example of an album characteristic selection screen.

  The album characteristic defines the number of images included in the generated electronic album, the number of large images, and the like. Album characteristics include “Large image priority”, “Number of images priority”, “Standard”, and the like. “Large image emphasis” is selected by the user when generating an electronic album having a relatively large large image pasting area. “Importance on the number of images” is selected by the user when generating an electronic album having a relatively large number of image pasting areas. “Standard” is selected by the user when generating an electronic album that is considered to be relatively average in size and number of image pasting areas.

  On the display screen 50 of the display device 3, a button B 11 in which “Large image priority” is displayed, a button B 12 in which “Large number of images” is displayed, and a button in which “Standard” is displayed. B13 is displayed. The user selects an album characteristic specified by the clicked button by clicking any one of the buttons B11 to B13 using the input device 9 (step 34 in FIG. 4). For example, assume that the button B13 is clicked and the album characteristic “Standard” is selected.

  When the album theme and album characteristics are selected, a plurality of electronic album templates (for example, having the selected album theme and album characteristics from among a large number of electronic album templates stored in the HD 11 of the electronic album template selection system 1) , 10 electronic album templates) are read and temporarily stored in the memory 4. In this embodiment, a plurality of electronic album templates having the same album theme and album characteristics have the same number of page templates. In this embodiment, when the album theme is “wedding” and the album characteristic is “standard”, the number of page templates is three as shown in FIG. However, the number of page templates of a plurality of electronic album templates having the same album theme and album characteristics may not be the same.

  When the album theme and album characteristics are selected, the images read by the electronic album template selection system 1 are classified by the CPU 2 into a plurality of groups corresponding to the number of a plurality of page templates in accordance with the shooting order of the images (step 35). In this embodiment, since the electronic album template having the selected album theme is composed of three page templates, the images read by the electronic album template selection system 1 are divided into three groups in the shooting order.

  FIG. 10 shows how images are divided into three groups.

  Assume that the electronic album template selection system 1 has read 50 images I1 to I50. The read 50 images I1 to I50 are represented as an image group G. Since the header of the image file representing the image stores information indicating the shooting date and time, the CPU 2 uses the information to transfer the image I1 to the image I50 into three image groups G1, G2 and G3 corresponding to the number of page templates. Divided by. For example, the images I1 to I15 are the first image group G1, the images I16 to I40 are the image group G2, and the images I41 to I50 are the image group G3. The shooting dates and times of the images I1 to I15 included in the image group G1 are older than the shooting dates and times of the images I16 to I40 included in the image group G2. The shooting dates and times of the images I16 to I40 included in the image group G2 are older than the shooting dates and times of the images I41 to I50 included in the image group G3. The shooting date and time information may not be stored in the header of the image file, but may be managed by a table or the like. Further, when there is no information on the shooting date and time, it is possible to determine the shooting time of the image by image analysis, and determine the shooting order of the images according to the determination result.

  Of course, the images may not be divided into groups corresponding to the number of page templates in the order of shooting date and time, and the images may not be divided into groups corresponding to the number of page templates in the first place. It is preferable that the page order of the electronic album template and the shooting order of the images are matched and the images are pasted in the image pasting area, but it is not always necessary to paste such images.

  Among a plurality of electronic album templates having the selected album theme and album characteristics, images I1 included in the image group G1 are included in a plurality of image pasting regions included in the first page template of the first electronic album template. To I50 are pasted in order. The degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image and the attribute of the image pasting area where the image is pasted is calculated by the CPU 2 (attribute matching degree calculating means) (step 36). For example, when the first electronic album template is the electronic album template 20 shown in FIG. 2, the combination of the image and the image pasting area is changed from the image pasting area A11 to A17 included in the first page template 21. Then, the image is pasted, and the attributes of the image and the attributes of the image pasting areas A11 to A17 are calculated. For example, the image I1 is pasted on the image pasting area A11, and the CPU 2 calculates the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area A11 and the attribute of the image I1. Next, the next image I2 is pasted on the image pasting area A11, and the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area A11 and the image I2 is calculated by the CPU2. In this way, the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image is calculated while the combination of the image pasting area and the image is changed. The CPU calculates the degree of coincidence between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image while changing the combination of the pasted images not only for the image pasting area A11 but also for the other image pasting areas A12 to A17.

  FIG. 11 is an example of an attribute matching degree table showing the calculated matching degrees.

  The attribute matching degree table shown in FIG. 11 is for the electronic album template 20 shown in FIG. The attribute matching degree table is generated for each of a plurality of electronic album templates corresponding to the album theme and album characteristics selected by the user.

  The attribute matching degree table is stored in the memory 4. In the attribute matching degree table, the degree of matching between the attribute of the image pasting area and the attribute of the image is stored for each image pasting area included in the page template. For example, the degree of coincidence with the attribute of the image pasting area A11 is 95% for the image I1, 85% for the image I2, 50% for the image I3, 50% for the image I4, 45% for the image I5, 50% for the image I6, The image I7 is 40% and the image I8 is 40%. The degree of coincidence with the attribute of the image pasting area A11 is also calculated for the attributes of the other images I9 to I15 included in the image group G1 and stored in the attribute coincidence table. Similarly, for the attributes of the other image pasting areas A12 to A17 included in the page template 21, the degrees of coincidence with the attributes of the images I1 to I15 are calculated and stored in the attribute coincidence table. In addition, for the attributes of the image pasting areas A21 to A32 included in the page template 22, the degrees of coincidence with the attributes of the images I16 to I40 included in the image group G2 are calculated and stored in the attribute coincidence table. . Further, for the attributes of the image pasting areas A41 to A45 included in the page template 23, the degree of coincidence with each attribute of the image I41 to image I50 included in the image group G3 is calculated and stored in the attribute coincidence table. .

  As shown in FIG. 10, when the images I1 to I50 are not grouped, the degree of coincidence between the attributes of the image pasting areas A11 to A45 and the attributes of the images I1 to I50 is calculated. . For each of the image pasting areas A11 to A45, the degree of coincidence with the attributes of the image I1 to the image I50 is calculated and stored in the attribute coincidence degree table. The degree of matching of attributes may be higher as the image quality is higher. High-quality images will be used for electronic albums.

  When the degree of coincidence is calculated, the CPU 2 calculates the total degree of coincidence for the entire electronic album template 20 when different images are pasted in different image pasting regions for the page templates 21, 22, and 23 (FIG. 5 steps 37).

  If there is an electronic album template that has the album theme and album characteristics selected by the user and for which the sum of coincidence has not been calculated (YES in step 38 in FIG. 5), the attribute and image of the image pasting area for that electronic album template The degree of coincidence with the attribute is calculated (step 36 in FIG. 4), and the sum of the degrees of coincidence for all of the plurality of electronic album templates is calculated by the CPU 2 (calculation process control means) (step 37 in FIG. 5).

  Among the electronic album templates having album themes and album characteristics selected by the user, three electronic album templates having a high degree of coincidence (which may be one or more) are selected by CPU 2 (electronic album template selection means). (Step 39). The covers of the three selected electronic album templates are displayed on the display screen 50 of the display device 3.

  FIG. 12 is an example of an electronic album template designation screen displayed on the display screen 50 of the display device 3.

  On the electronic album template designation screen, covers 51, 52 and 53 of the three electronic album templates selected by the CPU 2 are displayed. When one of these covers 51, 52 and 53 is clicked by the input device 9, the contents of the electronic album template of the clicked cover are displayed with the image pasted in the image pasting area. Displayed on screen 50. When it is confirmed that the image has been pasted and at least one of the covers 51, 52 and 53 is designated by the input device 9 (electronic album template designating means), the user designates the electronic album template (FIG. 5). Step 41). For example, it is assumed that the electronic album template of the cover 51 is designated by the user.

  When the user designates an electronic album template, a decoration selection screen is displayed on the display screen 50 of the display device 3 (step 42 in FIG. 6).

  FIG. 13 is an example of a decoration selection screen.

  In addition to the cover 51 of the image album template specified by the user, buttons 61 to 65 (decoration style display means) displaying characters (decoration styles) from decoration 1 to decoration 5 are displayed on the decoration selection screen. Has been. These buttons 61 to 65 are used for designating a decoration for performing decoration corresponding to the electronic album template 20 of the designated cover 51. A decoration style corresponding to each of the buttons 61 to 65 is defined, and when any one of the buttons 61 to 65 is clicked by the input device 9 (decoration style reception means), the decoration style is designated. Performed (step 43). The decoration style corresponding to the clicked button is received by the electronic album template selection system 1. The decoration in the accepted decoration style is performed on the electronic album template 20 of the designated cover 51 by the CPU 2 (decoration means) (step 44). In this way, the electronic album template is selected, the decoration style is specified, the image is pasted on the electronic album template, and the electronic album is generated.

  FIG. 14 is an example of the generated electronic album.

  The electronic album template 20 is used for the electronic album. In the electronic album template 20, any one of the images I1 to I50 is pasted in each of the image pasting areas A1 to A45 in such a combination that the sum of the matching degrees is high. Since the total degree of coincidence is calculated so as to increase as a whole of the electronic album template 20, the electronic album template 20 is not considered in consideration of the balance between the individual page templates of the page templates 21, 22 or 23 and images. The electronic album template 20 is selected so as to improve the balance with the image as a whole. Further, the electronic album template 20 is decorated with balloons 71 and 75 and heart marks 72, 73 and 74 in a decoration style designated by the user.
