ABSTRACT:
An image retrieving device for classifying and retrieving an image by detecting an object in the image and adding a keyword comprises an image storing section for storing the image which is supposed to be classified and retrieved together with the keyword in a database, an object acknowledging section for acknowledging a predetermined object in the image which is inputted, a keyword proposing section for proposing the keyword which relates to the object which is acknowledged by the object acknowledging section, and an object information inputting section for confirming, adding, and correcting the keyword which is proposed by the keyword proposing section. By doing this, the object in the image is detected for classifying the image; thus, it is possible to provide an image retrieving device in which the keywords are added to the image efficiently.
