ABSTRACT:
A person area is detected from an inputted image, a category to which a person shown in the person area belongs is recognized, a correction area is extracted from the person area, and the correction area is corrected based on the recognized category. Thus, the inputted image is easily corrected in an appropriate manner according to the category of the person, that is, an object.
