Abstract

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes: a camera; a processor configured to control the camera; and a memory configured to be electrically connected to the processor and to store a network model trained to determine a degree of matching between an input image frame and predetermined feature information, wherein the memory stores at least one instruction, and wherein the processor is configured, by executing the at least one instruction, to: identify a representative image frame based on a degree of matching obtained by applying image frames, selected from among a plurality of image frames, to the trained network model, while the plurality of image frames are captured through the camera, identify a best image frame based on a degree of matching obtained by applying image frames within a specific section including the identified representative image frame, to the trained network model, from among the plurality of image frames, and provide the identified best image frame.

Claims (29)

1. An electronic apparatus comprising: a camera; a processor configured to control the camera; and a memory configured to be electrically connected to the processor and to store at least one network model for recognizing a plurality of predetermined feature information in an input image frame, wherein the memory stores at least one instruction, wherein the processor is configured, by executing the at least one instruction, to: identify a best image frame from among the a_plurality of image frames, based on a first feature information recognized by the at least one network model in the best image frame, and provide the identified best image frame, and wherein the plurality of predetermined feature information comprises a facial recognition feature and a body feature of a person, and wherein the plurality of image frames include image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined first time period before a user selection of a user interface button to capture an image is received and image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined second time period after the user selection is received.

2. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the at least one instruction to:

identify another best image frame from among the plurality of image frames, based on a second feature information recognized by the at least one network model in the other best image frame, and

provide the identified best image frame and the identified other best image frame on a display of the electronic apparatus.

3. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first feature information and the second feature information are a same feature information of the plurality of predetermined feature information.

4. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first feature information and the second feature information are different feature information of the plurality of predetermined feature information.

5. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the body feature is a feature indicative of a jumping movement of a body.

6. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the at least one instruction to:

control the camera to stop capturing in response to the predetermined second time period elapsing.

7. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the at least one instruction to control the camera to capture the plurality of image frames without notifying a user that recording of plural frames has started.

8. A controlling method of an electronic apparatus comprising a camera, the controlling method comprising: capturing, via the camera, a plurality of image frames; identifying a best image frame from among the plurality of image frames, based on a first feature information recognized in the best image frame by at least one network model for recognizing a plurality of predetermined feature information in an input image frame; and providing the identified best image frame, wherein the plurality of predetermined feature information comprises a facial recognition feature and a body feature of a person, and wherein the plurality of image frames include image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined first time period before a user selection of a user interface button to capture an image is received and image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined second time period after the user selection is received.

9. The controlling method as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising:

identifying another best image frame from among the plurality of image frames, based on a second feature information recognized by the at least one network model in the other best image frame,

wherein the providing the identified best image frame comprises providing the identified best image frame and the identified other best image frame on a display of the electronic apparatus.

10. The controlling method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first feature information and the second feature information are a same feature information of the plurality of predetermined feature information.

11. The controlling method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first feature information and the second feature information are different feature information of the plurality of predetermined feature information.

12. The controlling method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the body feature is a feature indicative of a jumping movement of a body.

13. The controlling method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the capturing the plurality of image frames comprises:

controlling the camera to stop capturing in response to the predetermined second time period elapsing.

14. The controlling method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the capturing the plurality of image frames comprises controlling the camera to capture the plurality of image frames without notifying a user that recording of plural frames has started.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded therein instructions executable by a processor to perform a controlling method of an electronic apparatus comprising a camera, the controlling method comprising: capturing, via the camera, a plurality of image frames; identifying a best image frame from among the plurality of image frames, based on a first feature information recognized in the best image frame by at least one network model for recognizing a plurality of predetermined feature information in an input image frame; and providing the identified best image frame, wherein the plurality of predetermined feature information comprises a facial recognition feature and a body feature of a person, and wherein the plurality of image frames include image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined first time period before a user selection of a user interface button to capture an image is received and image frames obtained by the camera during a predetermined second time period after the user selection is received.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium as claimed in claim 15 , wherein:

the controlling method further comprises identifying another best image frame from among the plurality of image frames, based on a second feature information recognized by the at least one network model in the other best image frame; and

the providing the identified best image frame comprises providing the identified best image frame and the identified other best image frame on a display of the electronic apparatus.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the first feature information and the second feature information are a same feature information of the plurality of predetermined feature information.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the body feature is a feature indicative of a jumping movement of a body.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the capturing the plurality of image frames comprises:

controlling the camera to stop capturing in response to the predetermined second time period elapsing.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable recording medium as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the capturing the plurality of image frames comprises controlling the camera to capture the plurality of image frames without notifying a user that recording of plural frames has started.
