According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes a calculation unit. The calculation unit calculates a reliability for each of pixel areas in such a manner that the reliability increases with increasing at least one of (1) a first evaluation value which increases with increasing planarity, in a color space, of a distribution of pixel values in each of the pixel areas, (2) a second evaluation value which increases with increasing wideness of pixel values in each of the pixel areas on an estimated plane approximating the distribution of the pixel values in each of the pixel areas in the color space, and (3) a third evaluation value which increases with decreasing distance between the estimated plane and an origin of the color space.
