Abstract
An image determination apparatus includes a first extraction unit, a second extraction unit, a calculation unit, and a correction unit. The first extraction unit extracts a first set from an image including linear components that are line-shaped components. The first set includes a linear component extending along a first direction and a linear component extending along a second direction intersecting the first direction. The second extraction unit extracts a second set including a linear component extending along a direction different from the first and second directions. The calculation unit calculates a likelihood for the first set extracted by the first extraction unit in accordance with a relationship between linear components included in the first set. The likelihood is a likelihood of a table being formed. The correction unit corrects the likelihood calculated by the calculation unit in accordance with a relationship between the first set and the second set.
