Abstract

An image restoration apparatus includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a mask image generated by masking, by a mask region, a predetermined region of an article image in which an article is imaged; and an image output unit that outputs a restored image corresponding to the mask image acquired by the image acquisition unit by using a restorer pre-trained by machine learning so as to output the restored image, which is restored from the mask image to reproduce the article image in a pseudo manner, according to an input of the mask image.
