Patent Images
1. A method of segmenting an object in a first image, the method comprising:
- obtaining the first image including the object;
receiving a first input signal including first information about a first position in the first image;
selecting at least one pixel included in the first image, based on the first information about the first position;
generating a second image by dividing the first image into several areas, using the selected at least one pixel; and
segmenting the object in the first image by using the first image and the second image.
