1. An imaging device, comprising:
circuitry configured to:
continuously capture images of a subject to generate image data;
store the image data;
determine a composition of an image based on Deep Neural Network (DNN) processing;
determine a Region of Interest (ROI) region in which the subject is imaged, from the composition;
determine a position of the determined ROI region in the image in which the subject is imaged;
detect an amount of motion of the subject in the ROI region; and
erase the image data based on the detected amount of motion in the ROI region is less than a specific amount of motion.
