Abstract:
An image reading apparatus includes an imaging device for generating a white reference image of a white reference member and a document image of a document and a periphery of the document, and a processor for performing first processing for detecting a dirt substance from the white reference image, generating data for shading correction based on the white reference image, correcting the document image using the data for shading correction to generate a correction image, and performing second processing for detecting a dirt substance from the correction image. One of the first processing or the second processing is performed using a dirt substance detection result of the other one of the first processing or the second processing.
