Image processing method and apparatus

An image processing apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• wherein, the processor is configured to:
• obtain training data comprising a first image, a second image, and a ground truth morphing image that is based on a morphing control parameter;
• obtain an output morphing image by inputting the first image, the second image, and the morphing control parameter to a morphing generator;
• and
• train the morphing generator based on a loss function that is based on at least one of the images comprised in the training data and the output morphing image,
• wherein the loss function is determined based on at least one of:
• an adversarial loss associated with a discrimination between the image comprised in the training data and the output morphing image obtained from the morphing generator;
• or
• a pixel-wise reconstruction loss associated with a difference between pixels of the image comprised in the training data and pixels of the output morphing image.
