ABSTRACT:
A correlation along a horizontal direction and a correlation along a vertical direction are calculated with respect to a neighboring region around an interpolation target pixel by using respective pixel values of R pixels, G pixels, and B pixels in Bayer data. The pixel value of the G pixel to be interpolated for the interpolation target pixel is determined based upon pixel values of pixels adjacent to the interpolation target pixel along a direction exhibiting a stronger correlation between the calculated correlations. The interpolation target pixel in the Bayer data is interpolated by using the G pixel of the pixel value determined.
