Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processing device, etc., with which it is possible to automatically extract a certain number of images from a multitude of images and allow a user to enjoy in various points of views while browsing the image.SOLUTION: In the image processing device, a degree of association calculation unit calculates, for a plurality of images, the degree of association between the images on the basis of the face of a person, the result of scene and object determination, GPS information, and similarity. An important image extraction unit extracts, as important images from among the plurality of images, the image photographed in a certain period including a reference day for determining the importance of images and the image photographed in a certain period including an associated day associated with the reference day. An associated image extraction unit extracts, as associated images, a certain number of images from among the important images whose degree of association with a selected image selected from among the plurality of images by an indication inputted via an indication input unit is greater than or equal to a threshold.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】大量の画像の中から一定枚数の画像を自動で抽出し、ユーザが色々な観点で楽しみながら画像を閲覧することができる画像処理装置等を提供する。【解決手段】画像処理装置では、関連度算出部が、複数枚の画像について、人物の顔、シーンおよびオブジェクトの判別結果、GPS情報、ならびに、類似度に基づいて、各々の画像間の関連度を算出する。重要画像抽出部が、複数枚の画像の中から、画像の重要度を決定するための基準日を含む一定期間に撮影された画像、および、基準日と関連性のある関連日を含む一定期間に撮影された画像を重要画像として抽出する。関連画像抽出部が、指示入力部を介して入力された指示により複数枚の画像の中から選択された選択画像に対する関連度が閾値以上の重要画像の中から、一定枚数の画像を関連画像として抽出する。【選択図】図1
