Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to perform an interactive image recolorization process. The method includes receiving user input including a stroke drawn on an image presented on a client device. The stroke comprises a user-specified color. The method further includes determining a region of interest in the image. The method further includes recolorizing the region of interest on the image based on the user-specified color and causing presentation of a result of the recolorization on the client device.

Interactive image recoloring

The technical problem of removing an object depicted in a selected region of an image to create a natural-looking edited image is addressed by providing systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to perform automatic image inpainting. The method includes replacing the selected region using a color mask. A color mask can be generated using a mean color of pixels from a portion of the image that is distinct from and outside of the selected region.

Automatic image inpainting

Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to enhance an image on a mobile computing device. In some aspects, a user interface on the mobile computing device provides a plurality of image filters, each of the image filters associated with a different replacement sky type. Upon application of one of the plurality of image filters to an image, the mobile computing device is configured to identify a sky portion of the image, modify a color mapping of a non-sky portion of the image, and replace the sky portion of the image with replacement sky data corresponding to the applied image filter.

Image enhancement system

An active depth detection system can generate a depth map from an image and user interaction data, such as a pair of clicks. The active depth detection system can be implemented as a recurrent neural network that can receive the user interaction data as runtime inputs after training. The active depth detection system can store the generated depth map for further processing, such as image manipulation or real-world object detection.

Active image depth prediction

Various embodiments provide for systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for annotating a digital image with a texture fill. An annotation system may receive a user input defining a border separating a first portion of a target digital image from a second portion of the target digital image. The annotation system may then generate a contour mask, such as a binary mask, for the target digital image based on the user-defined border. The annotation system may then apply a media overlay to the target image based on the contour mask. In particular, the contour mask can define portions of the target digital image such that the annotation system will apply a media overlay to at least one of those portions while not applying the media overlay to remaining portions of the target digital image.

Systems, devices, and methods for image enhancement

Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to perform automatic image inpainting using local patch statistics. The method includes receiving a user input identifying a user-selected region of an image and determining a local region for the user-selected region. The local region includes a portion of the image outside of the user-selected region and that surrounds the user-selected region. The method may further include identifying patch matches within the local region, and inpainting the user-selected region using some of the patch matches identified within the local region.

Automatic image inpainting using local patch statistics

Systems and methods are provided for receiving an image from a camera of a mobile device, analyzing the image to determine a subject of the image, segmenting the subject of the image to generate a mask indicating an area of the image comprising the subject of the image, applying a bokeh effect to a background region of the image to generate a processed background region, generating an output image comprising the subject of the image and the processed background region, and causing the generated output image to display on a display of the mobile device.
