Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes: an area setting section that sets a searching area of a predetermined size in inputted image data; a searching section that searches for pixels having a predetermined pixel value in the searching area set by the area setting section; an attribute determining section that determines attribute of pixels contained in the searching area on the basis of at least one of a number and an arrangement of the pixels searched for by the searching section; and an attribute assigning section that assigns the attribute determined by the attribute determining section to the searched pixels.
Claims10
An image processing apparatus, comprising:
- an area setting section that sets a searching area of a predetermined size in inputted image data;
- a searching section that searches for pixels having a predetermined pixel value in the searching area set by the area setting section;
- an attribute determining section that determines attribute of pixels contained in the searching area on the basis of at least either of a number and an arrangement of the pixels searched for by the searching section;
- and
- an attribute assigning section that assigns the attribute determined by the attribute determining section to the searched pixels,
- wherein the sections are a controller implemented software.
An image processing method employing a controller implemented software, comprising:
- setting, by the controller implemented software, of a searching area of a predetermined size in inputted image data;
- searching, by the controller implemented software, for pixels having a predetermined pixel value in the set searching area;
- determining, by the controller implemented software, attribute of pixels contained in the searching area on the basis of at least one of a number and an arrangement of the pixels searched for;
- and
- assigning, by the controller implemented software, the determined attribute to the searched pixel.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
- setting of a searching area of a predetermined size in inputted image data;
- searching for pixels having a predetermined pixel value in the set searching area;
- determining attribute of pixels contained in the searching area on the basis of at least one of a number and an arrangement of the pixels searched for;
- and
- assigning the determined attribute to the searched pixel.
