Zusammenfassung: | An image processing apparatus includes a histogram extension processing unit for performing a first tone conversion processing on an input image using a first tone conversion characteristic so that a variance of a histogram of an image after the first tone conversion processing is larger than that of a histogram of the input image before the first tone conversion processing; and a posterization processing unit for performing a second tone conversion processing on the image processed in the histogram extension processing unit using a second tone conversion characteristic in which a relation of an output value to an input value is defined by a step function, thereby generating a posterized image whose tone number is reduced as compared with the image before the second tone conversion processing. |
