Image processing apparatus, method for processing image, and recording medium storing program to implement the method

摘要

Provided are an image processing method and apparatus for effectively reducing noise in an image, and a recording medium storing a program for executing the method. The image processing apparatus includes a noise reduction unit configured to apply a noise reduction filter to first image data to obtain second image data; a first edge data obtaining unit configured to calculate edge data lost in the second image data compared with the first image data to obtain the first edge data; and a first synthesis unit configured to tune the first edge data and calculate third image data from the second image data and the tuned first edge data.
