Description

  The present invention provides an index album booklet creation method and apparatus for creating an index album booklet by displaying a list of images carried by supplied photographed image information in a predetermined display order over a plurality of page portions, and creating an index album booklet The present invention relates to a program for causing a computer to execute the method.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known an index print in which a large number of images photographed with a digital camera or the like and recorded on a recording medium are read from the recording medium and displayed in a list in order of photographing on one print sheet (see Patent Document 1). ). In the index print, all the images recorded on the recording medium are displayed in the shooting order, so that it can be used, for example, when selecting a favorite image and placing a print order in a large size.

  In addition, an index album booklet in which each image is displayed as a list in the form of a book having a spread page has been studied. Unlike the above-described index print, such an index album booklet displays a list of images over a plurality of pages, and a plurality of images are displayed on each page.

Furthermore, when displaying an image over a plurality of page portions, some of the images in each page portion are exaggerated, for example, some images are displayed larger than other images, and the index album booklet looks good. Consideration is also being made to make it better.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-119083

  By the way, simply displaying some images in each page portion exaggerated than other images may cause a monotonous display when viewing each page portion in page order. For example, a page that displays a large-sized image (exaggerated image) that is larger than the other images continues in the upper left area of the page section, or such pages are concentrated toward the beginning of the index album booklet. The above exaggerated display may be felt as a monotonous display.

  In such a case, the effect of the exaggerated display may not be sufficiently obtained, so it is desired to prevent the display of the images in the index album booklet from becoming monotonous as described above and to suppress the deterioration of the effect of the exaggerated display. There is a request.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and is for causing a computer to execute an index album booklet creation method and apparatus, and an index album booklet creation method capable of suppressing deterioration in image display quality in an index album booklet. The purpose is to provide a program.

Extraction means for extraction and display order of images displayed in exaggerated form in each page part included in each extracted page part group So as not each other to match, and the candidate image in any of the page unit is characterized in that a display control means for displaying in exaggerated form different images.

  The index album booklet may have a spread page composed of two continuous page portions, and the page portion group may be the spread page.

  The standard form may be a form that displays an image in a standard size, and the exaggerated form may be a form that displays an image in a large size larger than the standard size.

  The index album booklet creation method of the present invention is an index album booklet creation method for creating an index album booklet by displaying a list of images carried by supplied captured image information in a predetermined display order over a plurality of page portions. A candidate image that is a candidate to be displayed in an exaggerated form exaggerated from the standard form is determined from the images based on the supplementary information included in the captured image information, and a predetermined number of pages that are consecutive in the display order in the index album booklet A page part group including a page part in which the display order of the candidate images in the page part matches each other when each image is displayed on each page part. In order to avoid matching the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page part included in each page part group, The said candidate image in any page unit is characterized in that the display in exaggerated form different images.

  A program for causing a computer to execute the index album booklet creation method of the present invention displays an index album booklet by displaying a list of images carried by supplied photographed image information in a predetermined display order over a plurality of page portions. In a program for causing a computer to execute the index album booklet creation method to be created, candidate images that are candidates for display in an exaggerated form exaggerated from the standard form are selected from the images based on supplementary information included in the captured image information. The candidate image is displayed in the page portion when each image is displayed on each page portion from among the page portion group consisting of a predetermined number of page portions that are consecutive in the display order in the index album booklet. The procedure for extracting the page part group including the page parts whose order matches each other, and Procedure for displaying an image different from the candidate image in an exaggerated form in any of the page parts so that the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page part group does not coincide with each other Are executed.

  Any method may be used for determining the candidate image by the candidate image determining means. For example, the candidate image may be determined from among the images by a calculation process based on incidental information, or simply determined in advance. The display order of the obtained candidate images in each page portion may be acquired as supplementary information to determine an exaggerated display image.

  The display order may be the shooting order. Note that this photographing order is a time-series order of photographing times of each image indicated by the photographed image information.

  Display of each image in the display order on each page part is based on the position of the center of gravity of the area where each image is displayed as a reference, or when the area where each image is displayed is a rectangle. Can display each image in the display order with the upper left corner or the upper right corner of the region displaying the image as a reference.

  The match can be a perfect match.

  Note that the candidate image determination unit 30 may also be used as the display exaggeration reading unit 85, or the display exaggeration reading unit 85 may be arranged outside the index album booklet creation apparatus 100.

  Here, the candidate image determination unit 30 reads the display exaggeration value of each image, and determines an image having a display exaggeration value equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold as a candidate image.

  More specifically, the candidate image determination unit 30 inputs specifications for displaying an image on each page portion in the index album booklet base paper 5 ′ from the outside, and also displays each image from the display exaggeration reading unit 85. The incidental information indicating the display exaggeration value is input. Based on the above specifications and supplementary information, the display order of each image when each image is displayed on each page portion, and each page portion of a candidate image that is a candidate to be displayed in an exaggerated form The display order of is obtained. The index album booklet 5 ′ is a blank booklet before displaying an image on the index album booklet 5.

  Hereinafter, the display order in which each image is displayed on the above-described index album booklet base paper 5 'is referred to as a booklet display order, and the display order in the page portion is referred to as a page display order. The booklet display order of each image displayed on the index album booklet 5 is determined in correspondence with the display order of each image.

  Here, the above specification allows 9 images to be displayed on each page part, and the exaggerated form displays an image in a large size larger than the size of the image displayed in the standard form, or It is assumed that a frame is attached to the edge of the image. Further, here, it is assumed that the candidate image determination unit 30 determines an image having the largest display exaggeration value among images displayed in each page portion as a candidate image.

  FIG. 2 shows, for each page part, the page display order of candidate images included in each page part and the page display order of images that are not candidate images when nine images are displayed on each page part. FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the page display on the page portions P1, P2, P3, and P4 in the index album booklet 5 'of each candidate image when each image is displayed on the index album booklet 5'. The order is as follows.

  In the spread page portion PP21 composed of the page portions P1 and P2, the page display order of candidate images displayed on the page portion P1 is No. 1, and the page display order of candidate images displayed on the page portion P2 is No. 8. is there.

  In the spread page portion PP22 composed of the page portions P3 and P4, the page display order of candidate images displayed on the page portion P3 is No. 4, and the page display order of candidate images displayed on the page portion P4 is No. 4. is there.

  The page display order of candidate images in each page part is input to the extraction part 10.

  In addition, information indicating that a page part group consisting of a predetermined number of page parts consecutive in the display order in the index album booklet 5 is a spread page is input to the extraction unit 10 from the outside.

  The extraction unit 10 includes a page portion in which the page display order of the candidate images in the page portion matches each other when each image is displayed in the index album booklet 5 from the spread pages as a page portion group. Extract spread pages. Here, a case will be described in which a spread page portion including a page portion in which the page display order of candidate images completely matches is extracted. When a plurality of candidate images are included in the page portion, a spread page portion including a page portion in which only the page display order of some of the candidate images in the page portion matches is extracted. It may be. That is, the page display order match may be partially matched.

  More specifically, when the extraction unit 10 extracts a page part group including page parts in which the display order of candidate images in the page part completely matches each other, the display control unit 20 extracts In each page portion included in each page portion group, the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form is not completely matched with each other, that is, at least one image among images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page portion. Displays an image different from the candidate image in an exaggerated form in any of the page portions so that the display order does not match each other.

  On the other hand, when the extraction unit 10 extracts a page part group including page parts in which the display order of the candidate images in the page part partially matches each other, the display control unit 20 The display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page portion included in the group is not partially matched with each other, that is, any image among the images displayed in the exaggerated form is displayed in each page portion. An image different from the candidate image is displayed in an exaggerated form in any of the page portions so as not to match the order.

  Here, the page portion group is a spread page, but the page portion group is not limited to the spread page, and may be composed of three or more page portions that are continuous in the display order. Note that information indicating the page parts constituting the page part group as described above is input to the extraction unit 10 from the outside.

  Next, the extraction unit 10 extracts, from each spread page, a spread page including page portions in which the page display order in the page portion of the candidate image matches each other.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the page display order of the candidate images in the page parts P1 and P2 constituting the spread page part PP21 is different between the first and the eighth. The page display order of the candidate images in the page portions P3 and P4 constituting the spread page portion PP22 is the fourth and the same.

  Therefore, the spread page portion PP22 is extracted by the extraction unit 10.

  The display control unit 20 configures the spread page portion so that the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form does not coincide with each other in each page portion included in the spread page portion PP22 which is the extracted page portion group. An image different from the candidate image is displayed in an exaggerated form in any of the page portions.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the page image P1 constituting the spread page portion PP21 displays the candidate image with the page display order 1st, and the page portion P2 displays the candidate image with the page display order 8th in a large size. Other images are displayed in a standard size smaller than the large size.

  In the spread page portion PP22, the candidate image with the page display order No. 4 is displayed in the large size as it is in the page portion P3, and the candidate image with the page display order No. 4 in the page portion P4 is displayed in the large size. Among the images other than the candidate images, the image with the second page display order having the largest display exaggeration value is displayed in a large size which is an exaggerated form.

  In addition, as shown by an arrow J1 in FIG. 3, for example, the page display order is 4th in each of the page portions P3 ′ and P4 ′ constituting the spread page portion PP22 ′. Without displaying a certain candidate image in a large size, in each of the page portions, the image whose page display order is the eighth in the page portion P3 ′ having the largest display exaggeration value among images other than the candidate images, The image with the second page display order in the page portion P4 ′ may be displayed in a large size which is an exaggerated form.

  Note that images that are not displayed in an exaggerated form in the spread page parts PP21, PP22 (PP22 ′) are displayed in a standard size smaller than the large size, which is a standard form.

  The display in the shooting order, which is the above display order, is set so that an image taken at a time traced back in the past by a position above the page portion (arrow + Y direction in FIG. 3) is displayed. Note that the display in the shooting order is set so that the priority in the vertical direction is higher than that in the horizontal direction, so that the position of the upper left corner of the two images matches the vertical direction (arrow Y direction in FIG. 3). When displaying each image, it is set so that an image taken at a time traced back in the past is displayed on the left side (arrow + X direction in FIG. 3) of the page portion.

  In other words, the display of the shooting order is set so that the position of the upper left corner of the image shot at the new time is located on the lower side of the page portion (in the direction of arrow -Y in FIG. 3). In addition, the display in the above-described shooting order is such that the positions of the upper left corners of the two images coincide with the vertical direction of the page portion (arrow ± Y direction in FIG. 3) and each image is displayed on the right side of the page portion. It is set to display an image taken at a new time (in the direction of arrow -X in the figure).

  The time corresponds to the time indicated by the shooting time accompanying each image.

  However, the display order is not limited to the above, and the display order of the images may be determined based on a different standard from the above.

  As described above, it is possible to prevent a reduction in the effect of exaggerated display when displaying an image in the index album booklet, and it is possible to suppress a decrease in display quality when displaying an image in the index album booklet. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, when the candidate images (images with the display order No. 4) having the same display order in the page parts P3 and P4 constituting the spread page part PP22 are displayed in an exaggerated form as they are In this case, a place where the spread page becomes monotonous can be displayed with a better appearance.

  The difference between the exaggerated form and the standard form is not limited to the case where the difference in image size is indicated. For example, a display form with a frame at the edge of the image may be an exaggerated form, and a display form without a frame at the edge of the image may be a standard form.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a state in which each image is displayed with the exaggerated form as a display form with a frame at the edge of the image and the standard form with a display form without a frame at the edge of the image.

  The display of the image by the display control unit 20 is displayed in the same size as the entire image, the image displayed in the large size is displayed in an exaggerated form with a frame, and the other images are in a standard form without a frame. When displayed, the display form shown in FIG. 3 described above can be changed to the display form shown in FIG.

  That is, the page part P1 constituting the spread page part PP21 displays the candidate image with the page display order No. 1 on the page part P2, and the page part P2 displays the candidate image with the page display order No. 8 with a frame, and displays the other images as frames. Display without.

  In the page portion P3 constituting the spread page portion PP22, the candidate image whose page display order is No. 4 is displayed with a frame, and in the page portion P4, the candidate image whose page display order is No. 4 is displayed without a frame. Among the images other than the candidate images, the second page display order image having the largest display exaggeration value is displayed with a frame.

  The following example can be given as a display method in which a display form with a frame at the edge of the image is an exaggerated form and a form without a frame at the edge of the image is a standard form.

  For example, the page display order of the candidate images having the largest display exaggeration value in each of the page parts P3 and P4 constituting the spread page part PP22 is consistent with No. 4, and the spread page part PP22 is extracted by the extraction unit 10. When extracted, the following display may be executed by the display control unit 20.

6A is a diagram showing a display when the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form matches each other in each page portion constituting the spread page portion, and FIG. 6B is a diagram showing each display constituting the spread page portion. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a display when images displayed in an exaggerated form in the page portion are not matched to each other. That is, as shown in FIG. 6B, a page portion P3 constituting the spread page portion PP22. Then, the candidate image of the fourth page display order that is a candidate image is displayed with a frame. On the other hand, in the page portion P4 constituting the spread page portion PP22, the candidate image having the fourth page display order is displayed with a frame, and the page display having the largest display exaggeration value among images other than the candidate images is displayed. The second image is displayed with a frame.

  In this way, as shown in FIG. 6A, both the page images P3 and P4 constituting the spread page portion PP22 are framed with the fourth candidate page display order that matches the display order. It is possible to display an image with better appearance than when displayed with.

  Further, the page display order of each candidate image having the largest display exaggeration value and the second largest display exaggeration value in the page parts P3 and P4 constituting the spread page part PP22 is No. 4 and No. 2, respectively. If the page portions coincide with each other and the spread page portion PP22 is extracted by the extraction unit 10, the display control unit 20 may execute the following display.

FIG. 7A is a diagram showing a display when the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form matches each other in each page portion constituting the spread page portion, and FIGS. 7B, 7C, and 7D. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the display when the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page portion constituting the spread page portion is not matched with each other. That is, FIG. 7B and FIG. As shown, the page portion P3 constituting the spread page portion PP22 displays the candidate images (page display order images 2 and 4) with a frame. Then, in the page portion P4 constituting the spread page portion PP22, the image having the largest display exaggeration value among the images other than the candidate images (images in which the page display order is the second and fourth images) is the ninth image in the page display order. Are displayed in an exaggerated form (with a frame). At this time, the second page display order image that is a candidate image in the page portion P4 may be changed to be displayed in the standard form (no frame) (see FIG. 7B), or the above page. The image with the second display order may be displayed in an exaggerated form (with a frame) (see FIG. 7C).

  Further, as shown in FIG. 7 (d), candidate images (images with page display numbers 2 and 4) are displayed with a frame on the page portion P3 constituting the spread page portion PP22. Then, the page display order having the largest display exaggeration value among the images other than the candidate images (images in the second and fourth page display order) in one page part P4 constituting the spread page part PP22 is the ninth. And the image with the next largest display exaggeration value in the page display order are displayed in an exaggerated form (with a frame). At this time, the images are changed so that the images of the second and fourth page display order as candidate images in the page portion P4 are displayed in the standard form (no frame).

  In this way, as shown in FIG. 7A, the candidate images with the page display order Nos. 2 and 4 having the same display order in each of the page parts P3 and P4 constituting the spread page part PP22 are displayed. An image can be displayed with better appearance than when both are displayed with a frame.

  In the above description, the candidate image is determined by comparing the display exaggeration values of the images. However, the candidate image may be determined by any method without being limited to such a case. In addition, the image to be displayed in the exaggerated form instead of the candidate image is determined by comparing the display exaggeration values of the respective images. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and which image is displayed in the exaggerated form instead of the candidate image. You may determine by such a method.

  Next, a description will be given of a case where a page part group consisting of a predetermined number of page parts that are continuous in the display order in the index album booklet is made up of three page parts that are continuous in the display order.

  FIG. 8A illustrates a case where, among the page portions included in each page portion group including three page portions that are consecutive in the display order, the page portions in which the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form match each other. FIG. 8 (b) is a page portion in which the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form is the same among the page portions included in each page portion group consisting of three page portions that are consecutive in the display order. It is a figure which shows the case where it is made not to contain.

  Assume that the index album booklet is composed of six pages, page parts P1 to P6, and one candidate image is determined for each page part. Here, the page display order of the page part P1 is 1, the page display order of the page part P2 is 5, the image of the page display order of the page part P3 is 8, the image of the page display order of the page part P4 is 5 Assume that an image with a page display order of 1 in the page part P5 and an image with a page display order of 5 in the page part P6 are candidate images (see FIG. 8A).

  A page portion group consisting of three page portions that are consecutive in the display order includes a page portion group PP31 composed of page portions P1, P2, and P3, a page portion group PP32 composed of page portions P2, P3, and P4, and page portions P3, P4. , And P5, and a page part group PP34 consisting of page parts P4, P5, and P6.

  The extraction unit 10 includes a page part group PP32 and a page part group PP34 as page part groups including page parts in which the display order of the candidate images in the page part matches (completely matches) among the page part groups. To extract. In each of the page portions P2 and P4 constituting the page portion group PP32, the page display order of the candidate images is No. 5, which matches each other. Further, the page display order of candidate images is No. 5 in each of the page portions P4 and P6 constituting the page portion group PP34, and they coincide with each other.

  The display control unit 20 does not match the display order of the images displayed in an exaggerated form among the page parts included in the extracted page part groups PP32 and PP34 in any of the page parts. An image different from the candidate image is displayed in an exaggerated form.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 8B, the display control unit 20 displays the image with the display order number 3 in the exaggerated form instead of displaying the image with the page display order number 5 in the page part P4 in the exaggerated form. Display. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the display order of images displayed in an exaggerated form from being matched with each other among the page parts included in each of the page part groups PP31 to PP34.

  In this way, as shown in FIG. 8A, in the page parts included in the page part group, the page parts P2 and P4 in which the display order of the candidate images is the fifth and match each other, and the page part P4 And P6, it is possible to obtain an index album booklet that is more attractive than when each candidate image is displayed with a frame.

  In the above description, the case where the number of images to be displayed in the page portion is not changed has been described. However, for example, according to the number of images to be displayed in a large size which is an example of an exaggerated form, that is, the entire page portion. The above method can be applied even when the number of images to be displayed in the page portion is changed in accordance with the change in the ratio of the display area of the image to be displayed in the large size in the display area.

  That is, based on the booklet display order of candidate images input from the outside and the specifications, the candidate image determining unit determines the number of images to be displayed on each page part and the page display order of candidate images included in each page part. Although it is set for each page part, at this time, as the number of candidate images included in the page part increases, the number of images that can be displayed in the page part may be set smaller.

  In such a case, by performing image display by the display control unit so as to match the number of candidate images included in each page part and the number of images displayed in an exaggerated form in each page part, A similar method can be applied.

  In the above description, the index album booklet has a spread page composed of two continuous page portions, but the index album booklet is not limited to one having a spread page.

  Further, the exaggerated form may be any display form as long as the image displayed in the exaggerated form can be visually recognized more easily than the image displayed in the standard form.

  A program for executing the function of the index album booklet creation apparatus of the present invention can be installed in a personal computer, and the index album booklet can be created in the personal computer as in the above embodiment.
