Abstract

An image processing device that executes deformation of an image includes a candidate area setting unit, an exclusion determination unit and a deformation processing unit. The candidate area setting unit sets candidate areas, each of which includes a specific image, on a target image used as a target for a deformation process. The exclusion determination unit, when there is an overlap between the candidate areas, excludes one or more candidate areas from the target for the deformation process so as to eliminate the overlap. The deformation processing unit performs deformation of the image on the candidate areas other than the excluded candidate areas.
