A code conversion device for image information, a code conversion method for the image information, a system for providing image related information using an image code, a code conversion program for the image information, and a recording medium in which the program is recorded

An image code conversion device for image information and its method are provided. By extracting a plurality of features of an image based on raw image information taken by an image reading device and converting the features into a unique code, the image code conversion device for image information and its method can stably convert the same image into the same image code. Raw image information acquired by an image reading device is converted into a plurality of pieces of developed image information on the basis of geometrical or physical factors. From the plurality of developed image information, feature information is quantified by a self-organization processing based on a probability scale. The quantified feature information is converted into a digital code. Accordingly, a unique image code corresponding to the raw image information is generated.
