Abstract
An inspection system includes an image processing unit that suppresses noise of a complex number image on which pixels are represented by a complex number indicating a periodic change in a vibration state of an inspection target. The image processing unit acquires a degree of similarity between a pixel included in a target image region defined in the complex number image and a pixel included in a plurality of reference image regions defined in the complex number image separately from the target image region by comparing complex numbers representing pixels, and executes noise suppression processing of the target image region by using a weight based on the acquired degree of similarity.
