Abstract:
An image evaluation apparatus is provided, which calculates a characteristic value indicating a state of appearance of objects corresponding to person a and person b appearing in image A and an object corresponding to person b appearing in image B. Subsequently, the image evaluation apparatus specifies person b′ as the photographer of image B and calculates a likelihood degree indicating accuracy of the determination. Further, the image evaluation apparatus calculates an importance degree of each of images A and B according to the characteristic values of person a and person b appearing in image A and image B and the likelihood degree of the photographer of image B.
