Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an attribute image generation part that analyzes image data of an original image and generates image data of an attribute image for each pixel, the attribute image having a first attribute value, a compression image generation part that generates image data of a first compression image that includes a compression image of the first part image and image data of a second compression image, and a format part that generates, based on the image data of the attribute image, image data that shows the first attribute value for each pixel as selection data being used to select a pixel value of each pixel, and generates data in a multilayer data format that includes the selection data, the image data of the first compression image and the image data of the second compression image.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a first attribute image generation unit; a second attribute image generation unit; and a foreground image generation unit. The first attribute image generation unit is configured to determine a first attribute value from an input image to generate a first attribute image. The second attribute image generation unit is configured to determine a second attribute value from the input image to generate a second attribute image. The foreground image generation unit is configured to generate a foreground image expressing color information in the specific region according to the input image, the first attribute image, and the second attribute image. Further, the foreground image generation unit is configured to switch a method of determining a pixel value of a target pixel of the foreground image according to contents of the first attribute image and the second attribute image in a reference region.
