1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to:
generate a first image, including a predetermined ruled-line image and an inscription image, from a second sheet in a sheet group, the sheet group being obtained by stacking a plurality of sheets including a first sheet and the second sheet, wherein
the first sheet is an uppermost sheet of the plurality of sheets and inscription information is inscribed onto the first sheet by a user,
the second sheet and onward includes the ruled-line image and the inscription image corresponding to the inscription information inscribed onto the first sheet, and
the inscription information inscribed on the first sheet is transferred onto the second sheet and onward;
extract the inscription image from the first image, the extracted inscription image being a first intermediate image;
extract the ruled-line image from the first image, the extracted ruled-line image being a second intermediate image;
position the first intermediate image with respect to the second intermediate image;
generate a second image in which a surplus image is removed from the generated first image, and the first intermediate image is positioned with respect to the second intermediate image, the second image being generated to include the first intermediate image and the second intermediate image, in accordance with a learning model that has learned to remove the surplus image different from the ruled-line image and the inscription image, wherein
as a result of the inscription information being transferred from the first sheet to the second sheet and onward, the same inscription information exists in every one of the stacked plurality of sheets, and
the surplus image does not exist on the uppermost sheet of the stacked plurality of sheets but exists on the second sheet and onward located below the uppermost sheet.
