Abstract(in English) With the spread of digital cameras, shooting photos has been becoming an everyday affair. However, there are few methods or systems to manage photos easily, and unorganized photos are not used or are difficult to avail. Although it is possible to add appropriate words explaining the contents of the photo as one of the methods to manage photos, it requires much time and effort to input such captions manually. It is also difficult to add captions intended by a user automatically. We have proposed a semi-automatic photo captioning system that enables users to generate captions easily. The proposed system generates captions using geographical database and web retrieval based on shooting position and orientation information. In this report, we evaluate a prototype system by some experiments.
