Abstract

In an image processing apparatus for converting resolution of an image, a weight for a statistical diagonal interpolation pixel is set based on a slope having the statistically highest confidence level, the statistical diagonal interpolation pixel is combined with a different pixel interpolated by a different interpolation so as to generate a combined interpolated pixel based on the set weight, information is generated for quantitatively evaluating the strength of an edge and the strength of texture, a texture mixed pixel is generated by combining the combined interpolated pixel with a texture pixel generated by performing texture filtering on the pixel of interest based on the texture strength information, and an edge mixed pixel is generated as a pixel at the position of interest by combining an edge pixel generated by performing filtering on the pixel of interest with the generated texture mixed pixel based on the edge strength information.
