Image Processing Apparatus, Image Processing Method, Program, and Recording Medium
First Claim
1. An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- detecting means configured to detect a target object image region from a first image;
setting means configured such that, when one or more predetermined parameters are applicable to a target object within the region detected by the detecting means, the relevant target object image region is set as a first region; and
generating means configured to generate a second image by applying predetermined processing to either the image portion within the first region, or to the image portions in a second region containing image portions within the first image that are not contained in the first region.

Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a detector, a setting unit, and an image generator. The detector detects a target object image region from a first image. When one or more predetermined parameters are applicable to a target object within the region detected by the detector, the setting unit sets the relevant target object image region as a first region. The image generator then generates a second image by applying predetermined processing to either the image portion within the first region, or to the image portions in a second region containing image portions within the first image that are not contained in the first region.

10. An image processing method executed in an image processing apparatus provided with detecting means, setting means, and generating means, the method comprising the steps of:
-
causing the detecting means to detect a target object image region from a first image; causing the setting means to operate such that, when one or more predetermined parameters are applicable to a target object within the detected region, the relevant target object image region is set as a first region; and causing the generating means to generate a second image by applying predetermined processing to either the image portion within the first region, or to the image portions in a second region containing image portions within the first image that are not contained in the first region.

11. A program causing a computer to execute processing in an image processing apparatus provided with detecting means, setting means, and generating means, the processing comprising the steps of:
-
causing the detecting means to detect a target object image region from a first image; causing the setting means to operate such that, when one or more predetermined parameters are applicable to a target object within the detected region, the relevant target object image region is set as a first region; and causing the generating means to generate a second image by applying predetermined processing to either the image portion within the first region, or to the image portions in a second region containing image portions within the first image that are not contained in the first region. - View Dependent Claims (12)
