Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an input interface and a processor that performs noise removal processing on an image input through the input interface, obtains first information on a first texture block among a plurality of first pixel blocks included in the input image, obtains second information on a second texture block among a plurality of second pixel blocks included in the noise-removed image, obtains third information on maximum energy amount among energy amount of each of the plurality of second pixel blocks, and identifies whether the input image is an upscaled image based on the first, second and third information.
