Hereinafter, a specific reference image score determination method will be described later.

4 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a method of determining a first candidate reference image according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The first candidate reference image determiner may perform clustering to set a location range to determine the first candidate reference image. In this case, the clustering is performed based on the photographing location information (uploader) included in the metadata information of an image previously photographed at a location adjacent to the user based on the photographing location information (user).

The first candidate reference image determiner determines a photographing location (uploader) 480 indicated by photographing location information (uploader) of a pre-photographed image, and a photographing location (user) 400 indicated by photographing location information (user) 400 . ) can be expressed on the coordinate axis. When the primary clustering is performed based on the shooting position (uploader) 480 of the previously captured image with respect to the shooting position (user) 400 , the shooting position (user) 400 and adjacent shooting positions (up loaders) 480 may be gathered to create one primary cluster 420 . In this case, when the number of shooting locations (uploaders) 480 of the pre-captured image included in the primary cluster 420 is less than the threshold value, the primary cluster 420 may be set as a location range of the reference image. Also, the pre-captured image included in the primary cluster 420 may be determined as the first candidate reference image.

Conversely, when the number of photographing locations (uploaders) 480 belonging to the primary cluster is equal to or greater than the threshold, secondary clustering is performed. The secondary cluster 460 may be determined through clustering of unit areas including the photographing position on the divided unit area after dividing the range of the place where the primary clustering is performed based on a predetermined unit area. For example, secondary clustering may be performed on primary clustered regions divided based on the lattice structure 440 . In this case, the size of the grid 440 may be determined by a predetermined criterion, and the criterion for this may be the density of the region of the primary cluster 420 . For example, if the density of data for the region of the primary cluster 420 is greater than or equal to a threshold value, the actual size of the grid 440 may be a unit area in the form of a square having a width of 3 m and a height of 3 m. Conversely, if the density of data for the region of the primary cluster 420 is less than the threshold, the actual size of the grid 440 may be a square unit area of 10 m in width and 10 m in height. The grid 440 may be set in consideration of an actual horizontal length and an actual vertical length on the ground. The actual size of the grid 440 is exemplary and may be adjusted according to the size of the data density for the primary cluster 420 region.

When this division into unit areas is performed, the secondary cluster 460 may be generated around the grid 440 including the photographing location (user) 400 . In this case, the secondary cluster 460 may be set as a location range of the reference image. Also, the pre-captured image included in the secondary cluster 460 may be determined as the first candidate reference image.

5 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a method of determining a second candidate reference image according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5 , the second candidate reference image determiner may perform a procedure for determining the second candidate reference image. In this case, the second candidate reference image determiner may determine a second candidate reference image based on the first candidate reference image. Also, the second candidate reference image determiner may determine the second candidate reference image through clustering based on the photographing time information (user) 500 and the photographing time (uploader) of the first candidate reference image.

The second candidate reference image determiner may be expressed as a histogram in which the number of first candidate reference images having a photographing time corresponding to the imaging time on the x-axis set in the first unit of time is set as a value on the y-axis. The first time unit for generating the histogram is a preset time unit and may be, for example, 1 hour unit.

The second candidate reference image is based on the photographing time information (user) 500 on a new coordinate plane in which information determined based on the first time unit is determined as an x value and a y value determined based on the number of first candidate reference images. It can be determined through one clustering. One cluster may be a set of histograms having a similar number of shots within an adjacent shooting time based on the first time unit.

After primary clustering is performed, if the change in the frequency of shooting per hour occurs less than a threshold percentage, the range of the shooting location may be regarded as a shooting location in which camera setting information does not change according to the change in time. In this case, the primary cluster 520 may be determined as the time range of the reference image. Also, a plurality of photographing record information in the primary cluster 520 may be determined as a second candidate.

Conversely, when the change 540 in the number of shooting frequencies per hour is greater than or equal to a threshold percentage after primary clustering is performed, the range of the corresponding shooting location may be regarded as a shooting location in which camera setting information changes according to the change in time. In this case, secondary clustering may be performed based on the user's photographing time information. The secondary clustering is performed on the primary cluster 520 , which is a set of histograms having a similar number of shots within an adjacent imaging time based on the first time unit. In addition, the photographing time section may be divided into a second time unit. In this case, the second time unit is a preset time unit and may be set to a relatively smaller value than the first time unit, for example, 10 minutes. When secondary clustering is performed based on the user's photographing time information (user) 500 , the secondary cluster 560 may be generated by collecting adjacent photographing times. In this case, the secondary cluster 560 may be determined as the time range of the reference image. Also, a plurality of photographing record information in the secondary cluster 560 may be determined as a second candidate.

In FIG. 5 , a method of determining a photographing time range in units of time is disclosed for convenience of description, but the time units may be set in units of months and weeks to determine the range of photographing time. For example, if the number of shootings increases in a specific month or a specific week (eg, cherry blossom festival, etc.), it may be provided as a separate time range when such an event is held. That is, in the embodiment of the present invention, the shooting time range may be determined by setting various time units for determining the shooting time range.

6 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a method of determining a reference image according to an embodiment of the present invention.

6 discloses a method for determining a third-party response score of a reference image determiner.

Referring to FIG. 6 , the reference image determiner may determine a reference image from among the second candidate reference images. The second candidate reference image is photographing record information in which a photographing time range is limited based on photographing time information (user) among the first candidate reference images determined based on photographing location information (user).

The reference image determiner may determine a reference image preset in the camera setting information providing server itself as the reference image. In this case, the preset reference image may simultaneously satisfy the conditions of the photographing location range and the photographing time range determined by the first candidate reference image determiner and the second candidate reference image determiner. When the preset reference image does not exist, the reference image determiner may determine the reference image in consideration of a third-party reaction score and/or a user shooting habit score. Additionally, the reference image may be determined through the sum of the third-party reaction score and the user's shooting habit score. In this case, as the third-party reaction score, related text information and third-party reaction information included in the second candidate reference image may be utilized. In addition, as the user shooting habit information, the user shooting habit received from the user terminal may be utilized. Hereinafter, a method of calculating the third-party reaction score and the user shooting habit score will be described later.

The third-party response score may be determined as the sum of each of the number of image views and the number of image responses (likes, comments, etc.) included in the related text information and/or the third-party response information. In this case, additionally, the third party reaction score may be weighted in consideration of other uploaded images of the uploader who uploaded the second candidate reference image. For example, a third-party response score may be determined by considering how much higher the second candidate reference image obtained than the other images. In this case, how much higher the second candidate reference image obtained than the other images may be quantified and expressed as a response score. For example, when the second candidate reference images A and B exist, the reaction score for the other image (A') of the first uploader who uploaded the second candidate reference image A was from 90 to 100 When the response score for the other image (B') of the second uploader who uploaded the first weight 600 and the second candidate reference image B was from 20 to 50, the second weight 610 is applied and the second weight 610 is applied. A third-party response score of the two candidate reference images may be determined. In this case, the second weight 610 may be set to a relatively higher value than the first weight 600 to determine a third-party reaction score.

7 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a method of determining a reference image according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 7 , the user's photographing habit score may be determined by applying a weight according to the user's photographing habit. In this case, the user's photographing habit may be determined based on an existing photographed image (user) received from the user terminal. The user's photographing habit may be composition information, object information, etc. that the user mainly uses when photographing. Accordingly, the user's photographing habit may be determined by considering object information and background information in an existing photographed image (user). For example, user shooting habits vary depending on the user: 1) when taking a picture centered on a person, 2) when taking a picture centered on an object other than a person, 3) when taking a picture of only an object without a person 4) Multiple It can be classified as a case of photographing people of In this case, the user shooting habit score may be determined by applying a weight to the second candidate reference image in which the user's user shooting habit is expressed. For example, if the user's shooting habit analyzed through the existing shooting image (user) is determined to be 3) shooting only an object without a person, the second candidate reference image in which only an object is shot without a person is more A high weight may be applied to determine the user's shooting habit score.

Additionally, the user's photographing habit may be determined in consideration of photographing time information recorded in an existing photographed image (user). For example, when the current user is traveling with friends, a result of taking a picture with the friends is stored, and there may be many cases where the user takes a picture with the friends at a shooting location in the future. Therefore, if there is an existing photographed image (user) taken within a threshold time (eg, 2 hours) based on the current time point, the user may determine the user's photographing habit by considering the image first. In addition, if there is an existing photographed image (user) taken within a threshold time (for example, 2 hours) based on the current time point, a higher weight is set for the analyzed user photographing habit, so that the user photographing habit score can be determined. have. Additionally, the user photographing habit determined in consideration of the time information may be determined as an image in consideration of the user's photographing habit change according to time among the existing photographed images classified as the user photographing habit. In other words, an image in consideration of a change in a user's photographing habit over time may be determined by giving a higher weight to the user's photographing habit expressed in the image as the image taken more recently based on the current time point.

That is, the method for providing camera setting information includes the steps of: a camera setting information providing server receiving user information; a camera setting information providing server determining a reference image based on the user information; and a camera setting information providing server including the reference image and / or providing camera setting information of the reference image to the user terminal.

Specifically, the determining of the reference image may include: determining, by the camera setting information providing server, a first candidate reference image based on the shooting record information of a previously captured image, the camera setting information providing server based on the shooting record information determining a second candidate reference image from among the first candidate reference images;

and determining, by the camera setting information providing server, a reference image among the second candidate reference images based on the shooting record information.
