Abstract
An image processing apparatus comprising an acquisition unit inputs image data, and outputs image data of blocks comprising a plurality of groups each including a predetermined number of pixels, wherein the acquisition unit changes an order of the image data so that arrangements of pixels between adjacent blocks are opposite, a deciding unit decides, for each of the groups, a quantization parameter, that is used for quantization of image data of the group, and an encoding scheme such that a code length of the blocks, which are encoding targets, does not exceed a predetermined value and an encoding unit, in accordance with the quantization parameters and encoding schemes decided for each group by the deciding unit, encodes the image data of the encoding target blocks output from the acquisition unit to generate encoded data.
