1. A method of processing an image, which is performed by an electronic device comprising one or more processors and one or more memories in which instructions to be executed by the one or more processors are stored, the method comprising:
obtaining a first mixed image of a sample comprising a first biomolecule labeled with a first fluorescent material and a second biomolecule that has not been labeled;
obtaining a second mixed image of the sample comprising the first biomolecule labeled with the first fluorescent material and the second biomolecule labeled with a second fluorescent material;
obtaining a third mixed image of the sample comprising the first biomolecule labeled with the first fluorescent material, the second biomolecule labeled with the second fluorescent material, and a third biomolecule labeled with a third fluorescent material; and
generating an unmixed image of the second biomolecule based on the first mixed image and the second mixed image,
wherein the generating of the unmixed image comprises generating an unmixed image of the third biomolecule additionally based on the third mixed image,
wherein the first mixed image is an image obtained by photographing a sample comprising the second biomolecule that has not been labeled and the third biomolecule that has not been labeled,
wherein the second mixed image is an image obtained by photographing a sample comprising the third biomolecule that has not been labeled.
