Abstract
A system and method are provided for generating colorized image data for a single-channel image using a ML network, as well as a system and method for training the ML network. The image colorization method includes: obtaining single-channel image data representing a single-channel image; generating image feature data as a result of inputting the single-channel image data into an encoder; generating a pixel decoder output through inputting the image feature data into a pixel decoder; generating a color decoder output through inputting the image feature data into a color decoder; and generating colorized image data based on the color decoder output and the pixel decoder output, wherein the colorized image data represents a colorized version of the single-channel image.
