A machine learning system can generate an image mask (e.g., a pixel mask) comprising pixel assignments for pixels. The pixels can be assigned to classes, including, for example, face, clothes, body skin, or hair. The machine learning system can be implemented using a convolutional neural network that is configured to execute efficiently on computing devices having limited resources, such as mobile phones. The pixel mask can be used to more accurately display video effects interacting with a user or subject depicted in the image.
