Abstract

An image processing apparatus includes a superpixel extractor configured to extract a plurality of superpixels from an input original image, a backbone network including N feature extracting layers (here, N is a natural number of two or more) which divide the input original image into grids including a plurality of regions and generate an output value including a feature value for each of the divided regions, and a superpixel pooling layer configured to generate a superpixel feature value corresponding to each of the plurality of superpixels using a first output value to an Nth output value output from each of the N feature extracting layers.
