Samsung patents video tool that highlights objects using neural networks

Samsung describes a method where a device uses a neural network to identify specific features of an object in a video. It then tracks that object in other frames and applies image processing to make it stand out from the background.

Why it mattersThis could lead to smarter video editing or viewing tools that automatically highlight subjects of interest without manual selection.

In the filing’s own words

An electronic device obtains, based on a neural network, a feature corresponding to an object from at least one frame among frames corresponding to content, detects the object from another frame of the content based on the obtained feature corresponding to the object, and performs an image processing on the object or an image surrounding the object such that the object is distinguished in another frame in which the object is obtained.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. An electronic device, comprising: memory to store one or more instructions; and at least one processor, individually or collectively executes the one or more instructions to cause the electronic device to: obtain, based on a neural network, a feature corresponding to an object from at least one frame among frames corresponding to content, detect, based on the obtained feature corresponding to the object, the object in another frame among the frames corresponding to content other than the at least one frame from which the feature corresponding to the object is obtained, and perform an image processing on the object or an image surrounding the object such that the object is distinguished in the other frame in which the object is obtained.
