Abstract

A method for training an obfuscation network capable of performing distinct concealing processes for distinct regions of an original image is provided. The method includes steps of: a learning device (a) inputting a training image into the obfuscation network to generate an obfuscated training image by performing a 1-st to an n-th concealing process respectively on a 1-st to an n-th training region of the training image; (b) inputting the obfuscated training image into a 1-st to an n-th discriminator to respectively generate a 1-st to an n-th obfuscated image score on determining whether the obfuscated training image is real or fake, and inputting the obfuscated training image into an image recognition network to apply learning operation on the obfuscated training image to generate feature information for training; and (c) training the obfuscation network such that an accumulated loss is maximized, and an accuracy loss is minimized.
