A method and system for combining, communicating, storing and/or separating image data and non-image data. The method involves a computer programmed to identify an end-of-file (EOF) marker of an image file, and being programmed to add the non-image data to the image file after the EOF marker.

Provided are apparatuses and methods of resampling event data for quantitative improvement of a PET image, which acquire a quantitatively-improved new PET image by analyzing a storage format of list data prior to conversion into the PET image and nonparametrically resampling event data from the list data based on the analysis results to improve noise and statistical characteristics thereof. The quantitatively improved new PET image may be acquired by analyzing a storage format of list data constituting the PET image and nonparametrically resampling event data to improve noise and statistical characteristics thereof.

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a first type of data, a generation unit configured to generate a type of time information according to time information of a second type of data among a plurality of types of time information as time information of the first type of data, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the first type of data and the time information of the first type of data that is generated by the generation unit to an external apparatus, which is configured to receive the first type of data and the second type of data from plurality of apparatuses and then perform processing while associating the first type of data and second type of data with each other.

A method and an apparatus for managing image files by displaying backup information are provided. The method includes: displaying at least one image file; reading a file tag of the at least one image file to determine whether there is backup information; and when there is the backup information as a result of the determination, displaying a predetermined object associated with the backup information.

A user terminal apparatus is provided. The user terminal apparatus includes a camera unit configured to photograph an object, a controller configured to detect an object image from an image of the object photographed by the camera unit, generate image metadata used to change a feature part of the object image, and generate an image file by matching the object image with the image metadata, a storage configured to store the image file, and a display configured to, in response to selecting the image file, display the object image in which the feature part is changed based on the image metadata.

A printing system is disclosed. The printing system includes an interpreter module to generate Tagged Object Bit-plane data corresponding to drawing objects for each colorant of a device color space during rasterization a print job data and a common buffer to store the Tagged Object Bit-plane data for each colorant.

The disclosure describes a method of connecting multimedia content to a network resource. This method operates in a computer network environment. Operating in a network connected device, the method extracts an identifier from a media signal, such as from a digital watermark, perceptual hash, or other machine extracted signal identifier. It then sends the identifier to a network along with context information indicating device type information. From the network, the method receives related data associated with the media signal via the identifier. The related data is adapted to the network connected device based on the device type information. This device type information may include a display type, so that the related date may be formatted for rendering on the display type of the device. This device type information may also include a connection speed so that the related data may be optimized for the connection speed of the device.

An image file recorded on a non-transitory computer readable recording medium is presented. The image file is readable by a transmitting device in communication with a plurality of transceiving devices. The image file includes electronic image data, and tag information including transmission route information for transmitting the image file to at least one of the plurality of transceiving devices.

A mobile terminal capable of setting a cover sheet and a header of a fax document and causing an image forming apparatus to transmit the fax document. Cover data representative of a cover sheet is created according to the settings of a cover sheet of a fax document, and header data representative of a header is created according to the settings of a header of the fax document. Upon receipt of an instruction for transmitting a fax document from the user, the mobile terminal transmits an instruction to the image forming apparatus for reading an original and transmitting the fax document, together with transmission destination information indicative of a transmission destination to which the fax document is to be transmitted and at least one of the cover data and the header data.

The disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for protecting an image based on face recognition, the method including: recognizing, by a smart terminal, at least one face image in an image; setting, by the smart terminal, a protection flag for the image, and storing the image, upon determining that one of the at least one face image in the image matches successfully with one of face images in a protection list stored in the smart terminal, wherein the protection flag is configured to protect the image from accidental deletion.
