IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to technology for extracting the region of interest from an image by combining multiple image-processing procedures, and makes it possible to set image processing procedures automatically without an operator inputting the image processing procedures. For this purpose, the invention automatically determines, based on the history of results of image-processing procedures used on the image being processed until the immediately prior cycle, the details of the image-processing to be executed in the next cycle and subsequently.
