Abstract
An image conversion apparatus for geometrically converting input image data and outputting output image data, includes an inverse coordinate conversion unit configured to inversely convert coordinate values on the coordinate system of the output image data into coordinate values on the coordinate system of the input image data based on the geometric conversion. When a region between neighboring pixels of the coordinate system of the input image data is divided into a plurality of divisions, the inverse coordinate conversion unit changes the inversely converted coordinate values so that coordinate values which belong to an identical division of the inversely converted coordinate values have a random two-dimensional array.
