IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect a red-eye and a gold-eye included in an image and apply red-eye correction processing and gold-eye correction processing to the detected red-eye and the detected gold-eye.

SOLUTION: The image processing apparatus includes: a red-eye candidate detection section that uses a detection threshold value for distinguishing red color from gold color to detect red-eye candidates being color regions included in a predetermined red color range from the image; a gold-eye candidate detection section that uses the detection threshold value to detect gold-eye candidates being color regions included in a predetermined gold color range and not in duplicate with the predetermined red color range from the image; and a red-eye/gold-eye correction section that applies the predetermined red-eye correction processing to the red-eye candidates detected by the red-eye candidate detection section, and applies the predetermined gold-eye correction processing different from the predetermined red-eye correction processing to the gold-eye candidates detected by the gold-eye candidate detection section.
