Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: partition pixel values in a unit of row of an input image into a plurality of sections and allocates threads to the respective sections of the row, the threads being enabled to run in parallel by a processor; calculate, with each of the threads allocated in each row, distances each from a pixel having a certain value in the corresponding section of the row in the input image, and generates a first distance image which stores values indicating the distances; and calculate, with each of the threads allocated in each row, a first boundary value indicating a distance from a pixel having the certain value in another section of each row, by using a calculation result of the first boundary value in the another section of each row.
