Image processing method and apparatus, storage medium, and electronic device

An image processing apparatus, comprising:

• processing circuitry configured to
• recognize, from a first image, a plurality of groups of portrait components and a region in which the plurality of groups of portrait components are located, each group of portrait components corresponding to one human body;
• determine, in the region in which the plurality of groups of portrait components are located, a target region in which a target group of portrait components is located, the target group of portrait components comprising a target human face, the target region being separated from regions in which other groups of portrait components other than the target group of portrait components are located;
• and
• blur regions of the first image other than the target region, to obtain a second image.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-readable instructions thereon, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform an image processing method comprising:

• recognizing, from a first image, a plurality of groups of portrait components and a region in which the plurality of groups of portrait components are located, each group of portrait components corresponding to one human body;
• determining in the region in which the plurality of groups of portrait components are located, a target region in which a target group of portrait components is located, the target group of portrait components comprising a target human face, the target region being separated from regions in which other groups of portrait components other than the target group of portrait components are located;
• and
• blurring regions of the first image other than the target region, to obtain a second image.
