ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus for extracting pictures-in-picture information contained in an image, includes an image segmentation unit segmenting an input image into regions, and a region extraction unit extracting a pictures-in-picture region containing the pictures-in-picture information on the basis of a contour of a segmented region.
