Abstract
A discrimination device and method that generates a control signal used for controlling a color image processing apparatus that processes color image data in a first color space and generates color image data in a second color space different from the first space. The color image data in the first color space is input and then a discrimination is performed to determine whether an image represented by the input color image data includes a specific image. A control signal is generated based on the discrimination result.
