IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS

摘要

It is possible to know a mixture state of an image. A region identification block (103) identifies a mixed region of image data where a foreground object component constituting a foreground object is mixed with a background object component constituting a background object. According to the image data, a mixture ratio calculation block (104) identifies a mixed region where a foreground object component constituting a foreground object is mixed with a background object component constituting a background object. With reference to the image data, the mixture ratio calculation block (104) calculates a mixture ratio indicating a mixture ratio of the foreground object component and the background object component in the mixed region where the foreground object component is mixed with the background object component. At least one of the region identification block (103) and the mixture ratio calculation block (104) performs image processing according to a plurality of types of components. The present invention can be applied to an image processing apparatus.
