Abstract
According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus is provided with a first arithmetic unit, a second arithmetic unit, a third arithmetic unit, and a search unit. The first arithmetic unit calculates a first cost function. The first cost function represents a relation between a disparity value and a cost in a search range of a second image. The second arithmetic unit calculates a second cost function. The second cost function is a sum of first cost functions regarding a plurality of paths. The third arithmetic unit calculates a representative value of intermediate data. The intermediate data is an addition result of first cost functions regarding a first path group among the plurality of paths.
