Abstract

An artificial intelligence (AI) encoding apparatus includes a memory storing one or more instructions, and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory to identify an object region of interest in an original image, obtain, from the original image, a plurality of original part images respectively including the object region of interest and a non-interest region, obtain a plurality of first images by performing AI scaling on the plurality of original part images through a scaling neural network (NN) that is configured to operate with NN setting information selected from among a plurality of pieces of NN setting information, at least based on whether the plurality of original part images include the object region of interest or the non-interest region, generate image data by encoding the plurality of first images, and transmit the image data, and AI data including information related to the AI scaling.
