ABSTRACT:
A domain block extracting unit extracts a domain block image from an original image. A range block extracting unit extracts a range block image from an area in the vicinity of the domain block image. The range block image has size being larger than a domain size and being smaller than an enlarged size. A reduced range block forming unit reduces the range block image to the domain size to produce a reduced range block image. A similarity judging unit compares each of the reduced range block images with the domain block image to select the highest similarity range block image. An enlarged range block forming unit forms an enlarged range block image by enlarging the size of the highest similarity range block image to an enlarged size thereof. An enlarged image acquiring unit produces an enlarged image of an original image by employing the respective enlarged range block images.
