  • Patent number: 10114532
    Abstract: Implementations relate to editing options for image regions. Some implementations include detecting a region portion of an image based on one or more characteristics of pixels of the image.

  • Patent number: 9286706
    Abstract: Implementations relate to editing image regions based on previous user edits. In some implementations, a method includes detecting a region depicting an identified subject in a target image and determining an identity of the identified subject. The method retrieves one or more stored user edits associated with the identity of the identified subject, where the user edits were previously made by a user to one or more other regions in one or more source images, and the other regions depict the identified subject having the identity. The method applies the one or more user edits to the region in the target image.
