ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR IMPROVING QUALITY OF IMAGE AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING QUALITY OF IMAGE BY USING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244088 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR IMPROVING QUALITY OF IMAGE AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING QUALITY OF IMAGE BY USING SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for generating high-quality person images from low-quality images using an artificial intelligence model. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves identifying a low-quality person image and applying it as input to an artificial intelligence model.
  • The artificial intelligence model is designed to recognize faces by performing face identification and face recognition on the low-quality image.
  • The model then enhances the image quality of the area corresponding to the recognized face using image processing techniques.
  • The output of the model is a high-quality person image, which is obtained by enhancing the image quality of the identified face.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Improving image quality: This method can be used to enhance low-quality images of people, making them clearer and more visually appealing.
  • Forensic investigations: Law enforcement agencies can use this technology to enhance low-quality surveillance footage or images of suspects, aiding in identification and investigation.
  • Biometric systems: High-quality person images can improve the accuracy and reliability of biometric systems that rely on facial recognition.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Low-quality images: The method addresses the issue of low-quality person images by using artificial intelligence to enhance the image quality, making them more usable and visually appealing.
  • Face recognition accuracy: By enhancing the image quality of the face area, the method can improve the accuracy of face recognition systems, even when working with low-quality images.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced image quality: The method can significantly improve the visual quality of low-quality person images, making them more suitable for various applications.
  • Improved identification: By enhancing the image quality of the face area, the method can help in accurately identifying individuals, aiding in investigations and biometric systems.
  • Time and cost savings: The automated nature of the method, using artificial intelligence models, can save time and resources compared to manual image enhancement techniques.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of generating, by an electronic device, a high-quality person image from a low-quality person image by an artificial intelligence model may include identifying a low-quality person image, applying the low-quality person image as input to the artificial intelligence model, and obtaining, as output from the artificial intelligence model, the high-quality person image. The artificial intelligence model may be configured to recognize a first face by performing face identification and face recognition on the low-quality person image, using a face recognition artificial intelligence model, obtain the high-quality person image by performing image processing for enhancing an image quality of an area corresponding to the first face, using an image quality enhancement artificial intelligence model, and output the high-quality person image.
