Abstract:
An image masking method is provided. The method includes: extracting an object from an image; obtaining characteristic information about the extracted object by analyzing the extracted object; determining whether the extracted object is a masking target according to an input setting value or the obtained characteristic information; and performing masking such that the obtained characteristic information is reflected on the extracted object, in response to determining that the extracted object is the masking target among a plurality of objects extracted from the input image, wherein the setting value is set by an input designating at least a partial region in the input image, and wherein in the determining whether the extracted object is the masking target, an object positioned in the at least a partial region is determined as the masking target among the extracted objects.

Claim (Index 9):
The image masking method of  claim 1 , wherein the setting value comprises an input designating at least a partial region in the input image, and an input designating sensitivity with respect to the designated at least a partial region for detecting a dynamic object,\n wherein the sensitivity with respect to the at least a partial region is set to be higher than sensitivity with respect to other regions in the input image to more extensively detect the dynamic object, and wherein the determining whether the extracted object is the masking target comprises determining a dynamic object satisfying the sensitivity with respect to the designated at least a partial region as the masking target among objects positioned in the designated at least a partial region.
