Abstract
According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes a scanner, a memory, and a processor. The scanner acquires a read image of an original document. The memory stores the read image of the original document that is acquired by the scanner. The processor detects a highlighted region including a region that is highlighted with a chromatic color in the read image of the original document which is stored in the memory and a circled region including a region circled by the chromatic color, and classifies the highlighted region as a region for first processing and classifies the circled region as a region for second processing.
Claims20
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a scanner configured to acquire a read image of an original document;
- a memory configured to store the read image of the original document that is acquired by the scanner;
- and
- a processor configured to detect a highlighted region including a region that is highlighted with a chromatic color in the read image of the original document which is stored in the memory and a circled region including a region circled by the chromatic color, and configured to classify the highlighted region as a region for first processing and classify the circled region as a region for second processing.
A method for differentiating marked-up information in an image, the method comprising:
- receiving an input from a user;
- acquiring, in an optical acquisition device, an image;
- communicating the acquired image to a data processor;
- identifying, in the data processor, one or more marked-up regions distinct from other portions of the acquired image;
- differentiating the one or more marked-up regions in response to the input by the user;
- and
- outputting a modified image based on the image and the differentiated one or more marked-up regions.
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a control unit receiving an input from a user;
- an image acquisition unit operable to acquire an image according to the input;
- a memory unit operable to store the image;
- and
- a processor operable to process the stored image according to the input, wherein the operation comprises determining a chromatic color and identifying a marker region of the chromatic color.
