Abstract
An image correction apparatus generates, for each pixel of a reduced image generated from an input image, a first smoothed image using each reference pixel in a filter area in which a difference obtained by subtracting a luminance value of the pixel from a luminance value of the reference pixel becomes less than a predetermined value, generates a second smoothed image using each reference pixel in the filter area in which the difference obtained by subtracting the luminance value of the reference pixel from the luminance value of the pixel becomes less than the predetermined value, and generates a smoothed image for correction of the input image based on the first smoothed image and the second smoothed image.
