Abstract
In this study, a system for supporting human memory is proposed. As a concrete implementation, a person retrieval system accepting fuzzy words is discussed.
The proposed system can retrieve a person with fragmentary information the user can remind and with fuzzy words on individual impressions. The individual impressions are automatically extracted from an image using image analysis and are registered as labels about the person. In this paper, the validity of the impression labels extracted by the proposed method is evaluated by subjectivity. The results of the experiments using real data are reported.
