Abstract
In an embodiment, an image processing apparatus for performing geometrical transformation of data stored in accordance with two-dimensional coordinate positions includes: a control unit configured to decompose a transformation processing from first coordinates to second coordinates into linear transformation and non-linear transformation, the control unit also being configured to determine transformation parameters for the linear transformation and the non-linear transformation; a linear transformation unit configured to perform the linear transformation of the first coordinates to calculate third coordinates; a non-linear transformation unit configured to perform the non-linear transformation of the first coordinates to calculate fourth coordinates; and a combining unit configured to combine the third coordinates and the fourth coordinates to calculate the second coordinates. The control unit determines the transformation parameters so that a third quadrangle formed by the third coordinates becomes a quadrangle approximate to a second quadrangle.
