  • Publication number: 20250054116
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media that generate inpainted digital images utilizing a cascaded modulation inpainting neural network. For example, the disclosed systems utilize a cascaded modulation inpainting neural network that includes cascaded modulation decoder layers. For example, in one or more decoder layers, the disclosed systems start with global code modulation that captures the global-range image structures followed by an additional modulation that refines the global predictions. Accordingly, in one or more implementations, the image inpainting system provides a mechanism to correct distorted local details. Furthermore, in one or more implementations, the image inpainting system leverages fast Fourier convolutions block within different resolution layers of the encoder architecture to expand the receptive field of the encoder and to allow the network encoder to better capture global structure.

  • Patent number: 12204610
    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. For example, the disclosed systems utilize an object-aware training technique to learn parameters for a generative inpainting neural network based on masking individual object instances depicted within sample digital images of a training dataset. 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. In certain cases, the disclosed systems further generate an inpainted digital image utilizing a trained generative inpainting model with parameters learned via the object-aware training and/or the masked regularization.
