  • Patent number: 12049288
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for generating a processed image, the method comprising: obtaining a target image; generating a target image mask corresponding to the target image using the target image and a first artificial neural network, wherein the first artificial neural network is trained to generate an image mask from a first image, and is trained by using an error calculated from a second artificial neural network, and wherein the second artificial neural network is configured to discriminate a second image generated by applying the image mask to the first image and a reference image of which the image mask is not applied; and generating the processed image of which an environmental noise is reduced from the target image by applying the target image mask to the target image.
