IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND RECORDING MEDIUM CONTAINING STORED IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

In an image processing method and in an image processing apparatus, edge and flat zones of an original image are separately recognized, a first nonlinear flattening process effective for the edge zone is executed to obtain first data, and a second nonlinear flattening process effective for the flat zone is executed to obtain second data. An image is rearranged by using the first and second data for the edge and flat zones, respectively. On a computer-readable recording media, there is stored the image processing method in the form of a program code.
