Abstract: In embodiments, computer systems and methods provide a hairstyle VTO experience. A generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) model (e.g. a diffusion-based model and a conditioning network) configured to generate output images in response to spatial conditioning is invoked with a plurality of conditioning images to condition the generation of the new hairstyle on an image of the face. The conditioning images comprise a hairstyle mask to control a shape of the new hairstyle; and an edge detection result image to guide a structure of the new hairstyle. The hairstyle mask and edge detection result are obtained from a 3D model of a sample hairstyle. The mask is aligned with a pose of the face, for example, determined from a face mesh generated for the face. The image of the face is preprocessed to remove an existing hairstyle (e.g. using a dilated hair mask and inpainting).

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods to perform colour extraction from swatch images and to define new images using extracted colours. Source images may be classified using a deep learning net (e.g. a CNN) to indicate colour representation strength and drive colour extraction. A clustering classifier is trained to use feature vectors extracted by the net. Separately, pixel clustering is useful when extracting the colour. Cluster count can vary according to classification. In another manner, heuristics (with or without classification) are useful when extracting. Resultant clusters are evaluated against a set of (ordered) expected colours to determine a match. Instances of standardized swatch images may be defined from a template swatch image and respective extracted colours using image processing. The extracted colour may be presented in an augmented reality GUI such as a virtual try-on application and applied to a user image such as a selfie using image processing.
