Abstract: A method and electronic device capable of improving image quality of an object for identification of a companion animal is proposed. The method for photographing the object for the identification of the companion animal includes obtaining an image including the companion animal, detecting the object for the identification of the companion animal from the image, and photographing a next image in a state in which a focus is set to a location of the detected object. The method and electronic device ensures that the object for the identification of the companion animal is detected in the photographed image and the focus is continuously placed on the location of the corresponding object, so that the image of the object for the identification having sharper quality is obtained, whereby images of the objects for the identification of the companion animals and usable for artificial intelligence-based learning or identification may be accumulated.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus for obtaining biometric information of a companion animal, and an operation method thereof are proposed. The electronic apparatus includes a display, a front camera configured to capture an image in a display direction of the display, a processor functionally coupled to the display and the front camera, and a memory functionally coupled with the processor. The processor captures the image of the companion animal through the front camera, outputs the image of the companion animal through the display, extracts a feature object from the image of the companion animal, and stores an image of the feature object in the memory.

Abstract: The present invention provides an image processing method and an electronic device capable of effectively detecting an object for identifying a companion animal while reducing computational complexity. According to the present invention, a method for detecting an object for identifying a companion animal includes acquiring an original image including the companion animal, determining a first feature region and a species of the companion animal by image processing on the original image, and detecting the object for identifying the companion animal within the first feature region based on the determined species of the companion animal.

Abstract: Provided is a system for automatically splitting a smart contract. More particularly, provided is a system for automatically splitting a smart contract, wherein assuming that a blockchain service permits the use of a plurality of blockchains to overcome limitations of security or performance provided by one blockchain, the system splits codes of one smart contract and enables the same to operate in the respective blockchains.

Abstract: A method and apparatus generate a face animation in a computer system. An input of a face image is received. A head model and a skull model are determined for the face image. The head model is matched with the skull model, and a face model is generated. At least one parameter for the generated face model is adjusted according to an expression of the input face image, thus being capable of allowing a user to easily generate a face model and a facial animation with various expressions without manually adjusting various parameters.

Abstract: Provided is a character positioning system, and a method thereof. The system, includes: a command data analyzer for analyzing a signal inputted from outside and performing a control command according to its kinds; a positioning device for receiving an analysis result for a certain input signal from the command data analyzer and controlling a character motion on screen; and a position information storage for storing position information of a character on screen.
