An image region segmentation method and system suing self-spatial adaptive normalization is provided. The image region segmentation system includes: an encoder configured to encode an image for segmenting a region by using a plurality of encoding blocks; and a decoder configured to decode the image encoded by the encoder and to generate a region-segmented image by using a plurality of decoding blocks, wherein each of the encoding blocks processes an inputted image into a convolution layer, performs spatial adaptive normalization, and then reduces the image and delivers the image to the next encoding block. Accordingly, spatial characteristics of the image are considered in an encoding process and a decoding process, so that region segmentation can be exactly performed with respect to various images.

Disclosed is an apparatus for playing and producing realistic object audio. The apparatus for playing realistic object audio includes: a deformatter unit individually separating scene description (SD) compression data and object audio compression data from inputted audio files; an SD decoding unit decoding the SD compression data to restore SD information; an object audio decoding unit decoding the object audio compression data to restore object audio signals which are respective audio signals of a plurality of objects; and an object audio effect unit adding an audio effect for each object to the object audio signals according to SD information for each object corresponding to the object audio signals among the SD information to produce a realistic object audio signal corresponding to each of the object audio signals.
