("Sen"; Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Nobuaki Chiba), a provider of online photo sales service "Yes Cheese! ( https://8122.jp/ ), a service that sells photos over the Internet mainly to educational institutions such as kindergartens, preschools, and elementary schools, has added an AI "face search" function to its graduation album service, "Yes Cheese! Online Album," a graduation and graduation album service.
The service's "person auto-totaling" function, which will be released in 2019, can be used in conjunction with the service to reduce production time by approximately one-half.

Yes, Cheese! What is "Online Album"?

In the past, when producing a graduation album, teachers and parents had to select a person in charge of production and work face to face (selecting photos to be included in the album, communicating with the production company, etc.). With "Yes Cheese! Online Album" is a service that can be done online; it was released in 2018 and the demand for this service has been growing this school year, especially due to the spread of the new coronavirus, which makes it difficult to work in person.

The addition of face search to automatic person aggregation significantly reduces production time.

One of the time-consuming tasks in the production of a graduation album was to find specific children whose photos would be used in the album so that they would appear equally in the album.
By introducing a new face search feature using AWS' Amazon Rekognition, the past "Yes Cheese! and when used in conjunction with the company's 2019 release of "automatic person aggregation," which aggregates the number of specific preschoolers on a page, it can significantly reduce the time involved in album production by as much as one-half. The company also released a new product in 2019, "Automatic Person Counting.

The use of the new functionality is limited to certain organizations.
The figure is an average production time based on multiple preschools. Production time varies from preschool to preschool.

Ease of use and performance will be improved in the future

We will continue to improve the ease of use and performance of the online album based on customer feedback! Online Album," which can reduce the workload and shorten work hours while ensuring the warmth of the graduation album through the use of IT. "We would like to contribute to everyone so that many people can use the "Online Album" and continue to improve it daily based on customer feedback to enhance its ease of use and performance.

Due to the closure of some schools and cancellation of some events due to the Corona disaster, the number of photos taken this year will be less than in previous years in some places. Because of this, we will be making effective use of the stock we have accumulated so far to produce the album, and it would be very helpful if we could streamline the organization of the photos. I also think that the parents of the album committee members will be relieved to be able to work with the album members in a non-personal setting.
