Abstract: Methods and systems for modifying a digital image are described herein. The method can include performing vividness scoring for a plurality of pixels of the digital image, determining one or more candidate pixels based on the vividness scoring for the plurality of pixels, and agglomerating the one or more candidate pixels into one or more suggested agglomerates. The method can also include determining at least one subject of the digital image, removing at least one agglomerate from the one or more suggested agglomerates based on at least one of the at least one subject of the digital image or one or more characteristics of the at least one agglomerate, generating a modified digital image with the one or more suggested agglomerates modified, and outputting the modified digital image.
