Abstract
A method includes: generating, by a deep neural network (DNN) trained using a data set of feature training images for feature learning, sample images in which different objects in a category same as a category of objects captured in the feature training images are captured; inputting the sample images to the DNN; and obtaining, from the DNN, feature vectors of the sample images, the feature vectors each resulting from one of the sample images being converted by the DNN into an n-dimensional vector, where n is an integer greater than or equal to 100. The feature vectors are used to generate an image showing a mental image.
