Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a set specifying unit, a clustering unit, an image selection unit, and an image arrangement unit. The set specifying unit specifies a set of images from among a plurality of images under a predetermined condition. The clustering unit classifies, after the set of images is specified by the set specifying unit, the plurality of images into any of the same number of clusters as that of image layout regions. The image selection unit collectively selects images that constitute the set of images from among the images included in the clusters generated by the clustering unit. The image arrangement unit arranges, in the image layout regions that correspond to the clusters one-to-one, the images constituting the set of images selected from the clusters by the image selection unit.
