Abstract
In one aspect, a computerized method for implementing a hierarchical image matting framework comprising: with a hierarchical image matting framework: analyzing a plurality of patches in a set of input images; determining a complexity of each image in the set of input images, and processing each image according the complexity of each image to determine a plurality of complex patches of each image and a plurality of simpler patches of each image; routing a plurality of complex patches with finer details to a computationally heavier network; routing a plurality of those with simpler patches of each image to a relatively lighter network; and fusing the outputs from the computationally heavy network and the computationally light network to obtain a plurality of alpha mattes.
