Abstract: Introduced here are computer programs and associated computer-implemented techniques for training and then applying computer-implemented models designed for segmentation of an object in the frames of video. By training and then applying the segmentation model in a cyclical manner, the errors encountered when performing segmentation can be eliminated rather than propagated. In particular, the approach to segmentation described herein allows the relationship between a reference mask and each target frame for which a mask is to be produced to be explicitly bridged or established. Such an approach ensures that masks are accurate, which in turn means that the segmentation model is less prone to distractions.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for training a generative inpainting neural network to accurately generate inpainted digital images via object-aware training and/or masked regularization.

In some embodiments, the disclosed systems also (or alternatively) utilize a masked regularization technique as part of training to prevent overfitting by penalizing a discriminator neural network utilizing a regularization term that is based on an object mask.

Abstract: Systems and methods for local augmented reality (AR) tracking of an AR object are disclosed. In one example embodiment a device captures a series of video image frames. A user input is received at the device associating a first portion of a first image of the video image frames with an AR sticker object and a target. A first target template is generated to track the target across frames of the video image frames. In some embodiments, global tracking based on a determination that the target is outside a boundary area is used. The global tracking comprises using a global tracking template for tracking movement in the video image frames captured following the determination that the target is outside the boundary area. When the global tracking determines that the target is within the boundary area, local tracking is resumed along with presentation of the AR sticker object on an output display of the device.
