Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a comparison unit and a control unit. The comparison unit compares a light-dark pattern of a plurality of pixels of an input image with a previously-stored pattern to determine a semitransparent object. The plurality of pixels include a pixel of interest and peripheral pixels thereof. The control unit changes intensity of edge correction processing to be applied to the pixel of interest in at least three levels based on a result of the comparison by the comparison unit.
