Abstract:
1. An information processing device for enlarging an image, comprising: holding means for holding neighborhood pixels in the image, the neighborhood pixels including a target pixel; dividing means for dividing the target pixel into of sections; discriminating means for discriminating between subject color and background color with respect to each pixel held by the holding means, wherein prior to discriminating between subject color and background color, each of said pixels held by the holding means includes swapped data positions according to position information of each of the plurality of sections of the divided target pixel, wherein the position information of each of the plurality of sections of the divided target pixel indicates one of the plurality of sections of the divided target pixel; first-pattern determining means for determining whether or not an arrangement pattern of the subject color and the background color, the arrangement pattern being obtained based on a result of the discrimination performed by the discriminating means, matches a first pattern for expanding the subject color; second-pattern determining means for determining whether or not an arrangement pattern of the subject color and the background color, the arrangement pattern being obtained based on a result of the discrimination performed by the discriminating means, matches a second pattern for expanding the background color; and selecting means for selecting data to be fit into each of the plurality of sections of the target pixel, divided by the dividing means, from the neighborhood pixels based on results of the determination performed by the first-pattern and second-pattern determining means.
