In an image classifying apparatus, an image is designated as a designated image from among plural candidate images, the designated image being one of images to be contained in at least one group, attribute information is obtained from the designated image, selecting conditions of images are decided based on the attribute information obtained from the designated image, at least one image is selected as a selected image to be contained in the group, from among the plural candidate images based on the selecting conditions, and both the designated image and the selected images are classified into the group.

In an image processing device (), the motion detection unit () extracts an outline indicating a body from an image of each frame in moving image data of a player and sets a motion reference axis(line) to each part of the body. Then, the motion comparison unit () compares a moving image of the player and a moving image of a professional golfer based on a motion of a main motion reference axis(line) and generates moving image data for comparison to which comparison result data is added. Based on this moving image data for comparison, the comparison result display control unit () distinguishably displays a difference between the moving image of the player and the moving image of the professional golfer.

An image capturing apparatus includes an image capturing unit, a designating unit configured to designate a main-area or a position to which a moving object is to reach, in each captured image captured by the image capturing unit, an image capturing control unit configured to control the image capturing unit to continuously capture the moving object at a predetermined frame rate, a position specifying unit configured to specify a position of the moving object in the image captured by the image capturing unit, and a frame rate control unit configured to control the predetermined frame rate, based on the specified position of the moving object, and either the main-area or position.

A camera has a provisional photographing mode in which a human model image is displayed on a through image in an overlapping manner on a display, and the user moves the human model image to a desired position in the through image and records a composition indicating image representing the conditions of the through image with the human model image at the desired position. After the provisional photographing process, the through image is synthesized with the recorded composition indicating image in a semi transparent manner, to display a synthesized image in place of the through image on the display. When a shutter is operated, a normal photographing process is performed to record an image.

A document image processor reads data on the image of an original document and automatically sets a format for the document in a document processor such as a word processor or personal computer. First, an image scanner reads a document as image data. A character recognizer recognizes and encodes a character from the read image data, and a document processor stores the encoded document data into a document memory. When the character recognizer encodes the image data, it analyzes the structure of the document. The document processor produces format information on the basis of the result of the analysis, and sets the produced format information in the document format memory in correspondence to document data in the document memory. Thus, the document image processor reads a document image from the document, encodes the image, and sets a format for a document conforming exactly to the document image in correspondence to the encoded document data.
