Abstract
The present invention relates to a signal processing device and signal processing method, and program and recording medium, whereby images and the like closer approximating real world signals can be obtained. With regard to an input image of dimensions fewer than the dimensions of actual world light signals, wherein actual world light signals have been projected and a part of the continuity of the actual world light signals has been lost, actual world signals are estimated at an actual world signal estimating unitfrom the input image within a processing region set at a processing region setting unit, corresponding to continuity set at a continuity setting unit. On the other hand, information relating to at least one of processing region, continuity, and actual world signals, is supplied from a user I/Fto the processing region setting unit, continuity setting unit, or actual world signal estimating unit, according to user operations. The present invention can be applied to, for example, cases of removing movement blurring from an image, for example.
