Abstract
A method of displaying images that resemble each other includes the steps of extracting image features from images, dividing a feature space of the image features into sub-spaces having a hierarchical structure, generating a tree structure having the sub-spaces as nodes thereof, dividing a display space into divided spaces reflecting the tree structure, and assigning the images to the corresponding divided spaces so as to display the images arranged in the display space.
