Method and apparatus for generating learning data required to learn animation characters based on deep learning

A learning data generation apparatus needed to learn animation characters on the basis of deep learning, the learning data generation apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory configured to store instructions for instructing the at least one processor to perform at least one operation,
• wherein the at least one operation comprises:
• collecting various images from an external source using wired/wireless communication;
• training a character detection module using the collected images;
• acquiring character images from the collected images using the trained character detection module;
• clustering the acquired character images;
• selecting learning data from among the clustered images;
• and
• inputting the selected learning data to an artificial neural network for character recognition,
• wherein the training of the character detection module comprises:
• labeling the collected images to generate labels corresponding to the respective images;
• and
• inputting the generated labels and the collected images to a preset character detection model to train the character detection model.
