Abstract
A method for extracting a person region includes detecting a face from a raw image input in real time; configuring a search range based on the detected face; extracting an outline of a person region by performing preprocessing on an image within the search range; configuring watershed markers on a background and a foreground of the image within the search range based on the extracted outline; performing a watershed transform based on the configured watershed markers; and separating the person region from the raw image using a result of the watershed transform.
