Abstract: The disclosure relates to an image segmentation method and apparatus, and a computer program thereof. The image segmentation apparatus according to the disclosure may include an encoding module configured to obtain a plurality of feature maps having different resolutions with respect to an input image, using an artificial neural network including one or more residual blocks, and a decoding module configured to generate one prediction map from pairs of adjacent feature maps among the plurality of feature maps in bracket-shaped manner, wherein the decoding module performs one or more decoding rounds, each decoding round includes one or more ATF modules that generate a combined feature map using a high-resolution feature map having a higher resolution among an adjacent feature map pair constituting the feature map generated in the previous round and a low-resolution feature map having a lower resolution thereof, and the decoding round is repeatedly performed until the one prediction map is generated.
