Systems and methods described herein may relate to potential methods of training a machine learning model to be implemented on a mobile computing device configured to capture, adjust, and/or store image frames. An example method includes supplying a first image frame of a subject in a setting lit within a first lighting environment and supplying a second image frame of the subject lit within a second lighting environment. The method further includes determining a mask. Additionally, the method includes combining the first image frame and the second image frame according to the mask to generate a synthetic image and assigning a score to the synthetic image. The method also includes training a machine learning model based on the assigned score to adjust a captured image based on the synthetic image.

Systems and methods for manipulation of shadows on portrait image frames

Apparatus and methods related to applying lighting models to images of objects are provided. A neural network can be trained to apply a lighting model to an input image. The training of the neural network can utilize confidence learning that is based on light predictions and prediction confidence values associated with lighting of the input image. A computing device can receive an input image of an object and data about a particular lighting model to be applied to the input image. The computing device can determine an output image of the object by using the trained neural network to apply the particular lighting model to the input image of the object.
