Image processing apparatus, method of controlling image processing apparatus, image recognition method, image forming apparatus, information processing apparatus, and data processing method
First Claim
1. An image processing apparatus that controls a user interface according to image properties, comprising:
- a document data acquiring unit to acquire document data;
an image recognizing unit to determine the image properties of the document data including a color and a gray level of the document data so as to generate recognition data; and
a user interface providing unit to receive the recognition data so as to provide the user interface, wherein operations that can be performed on the document data by the image processing apparatus through the user interface vary according to the recognition data,wherein the image recognizing unit differentiates between a monochrome binary image and a multilevel image based on gray level data and two-dimensional dispersion of pixels contained in the document data so as to generate the recognition data.
