Abstract
Methods and systems for detecting colored artifacts on an image of subject are disclosed. An image may be received, wherein the image has undergone background replacement processing. The image may include colored artifacts as a result of errors in background replacement processing. A density of colored artifacts on the image may be determined, and in response to a determination that the image has a density of colored artifacts that exceeds a predetermined threshold, the image may be displayed on a user interface. The user interface may include a selectable element that, in response to being selected, causes the colored artifacts to be highlighted on the image displayed on the user interface. Colored artifacts on the image may then be corrected to improve the image quality before the image is sent to a customer as a final image product.
