Abstract

An artificial intelligence (AI) encoding apparatus includes a processor configured to execute one or more instructions stored in the AI encoding apparatus to: input, to a downscale deep neural network (DNN), a first reduced image downscaled from an original image and a reduction feature map having a resolution lower than a resolution of the original image; obtain a first image AI-downscaled from the original image in the downscale DNN; generate image data by performing a first encoding process on the first image; and output the image data.
