Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for utilizing machine learning to generate a mask for an object portrayed in a digital image. For example, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems utilize a neural network to generate an image feature representation from the digital image. The disclosed systems can receive a selection input identifying one or more pixels corresponding to the object. In addition, in some implementations, the disclosed systems generate a modified feature representation by integrating the selection input into the image feature representation. Moreover, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems utilize an additional neural network to generate a plurality of masking proposals for the object from the modified feature representation. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems utilize a further neural network to generate the mask for the object from the modified feature representation and/or the masking proposals.
