  • Publication number: 20240169500
    Abstract: Systems and methods for image processing are described. Embodiments of the present disclosure receive an image comprising a first region that includes content and a second region to be inpainted. Noise is then added to the image to obtain a noisy image, and a plurality of intermediate output images are generated based on the noisy image using a diffusion model trained using a perceptual loss. The intermediate output images predict a final output image based on a corresponding intermediate noise level of the diffusion model. The diffusion model then generates the final output image based on the intermediate output image. The final output image includes inpainted content in the second region that is consistent with the content in the first region.

  • Publication number: 20240161344
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media embed a trained neural network within a digital image. For instance, in one or more embodiments, the systems identify out-of-gamut pixel values of a digital image in a first gamut, where the digital image is converted to the first gamut from a second gamut. Furthermore, the systems determine target pixel values of a target version of the digital image in the first gamut that correspond to the out-of-gamut pixel values. The systems train a neural network to predict the target pixel values in the first gamut based on the out-of-gamut pixel values. The systems embed the neural network within the digital image in the second gamut to allow for extraction of the embedded neural network from the digital image to restore the digital image to a larger gamut digital image.
