ABSTRACT:
In order to extract, from an image in which predetermined information is embedded, such predetermined information at a high speed and with high precision, the invention provides an image processing apparatus comprising an input unit for entering an image in which predetermined information is embedded, a process unit for filtering the entered image with plural filters having different characteristics respectively, a detection unit for detecting plural feature amounts based on conversion values obtained by the filtering, and an extraction unit for extracting the predetermined information based on thus detected plural feature amounts.
