Abstract
The image processing apparatus includes a color extraction unit, a region cutting-out unit, a determination unit, and a sticky-note-image cutting-out unit. The color extraction unit extracts pixels by using multiple thresholds, which are prepared in advance for a color space, for a color used in sticky notes, from image information including information about the sticky notes. The region cutting-out unit cuts out a region which is a group of the pixels extracted by the color extraction unit, for each of the thresholds. The determination unit determines a threshold to be employed, from the thresholds on the basis of the number of regions which are cut out by the region cutting-out unit. The sticky-note-image cutting-out unit cuts out a sticky note image from the image information by using the threshold determined by the determination unit.
