Abstract: Systems and techniques that synthesize an image with similar texture to a selected style image. A generator network is trained to synthesize texture images depending on a selection unit input. The training configures the generator network to synthesize texture images that are similar to individual style images of multiple style images based on which is selected by the selection unit input. The generator network can be configured to minimize a covariance matrix-based style loss and/or a diversity loss in synthesizing the texture images. After training the generator network, the generator network is used to synthesize texture images for selected style images. For example, this can involve receiving user input selecting a selected style image, determining the selection unit input based on the selected style image, and synthesizing texture images using the generator network with the selection unit input and noise input.

Abstract: Certain embodiments involve recognizing combinations of body shape, pose, and clothing in three-dimensional input images. For example, synthetic training images are generated based on user inputs. These synthetic training images depict different training figures with respective combinations of a body pose, a body shape, and a clothing item. A machine learning algorithm is trained to recognize the pose-shape-clothing combinations in the synthetic training images and to generate feature descriptors describing the pose-shape-clothing combinations. The trained machine learning algorithm is outputted for use by an image manipulation application. In one example, an image manipulation application uses a feature descriptor, which is generated by the machine learning algorithm, to match an input figure in an input image to an example image based on a correspondence between a pose-shape-clothing combination of the input figure and a pose-shape-clothing combination of an example figure in the example image.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for segmenting a digital image to identify an object portrayed in the digital image from background pixels in the digital image. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods use a first neural network and a second neural network to generate image information used to generate a segmentation mask that corresponds to the object portrayed in the digital image. Specifically, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods optimize a fit between a mask boundary of the segmentation mask to edges of the object portrayed in the digital image to accurately segment the object within the digital image.

Abstract: Certain aspects involve semantic segmentation of objects in a digital visual medium by determining a score for each pixel of the digital visual medium that is representative of a likelihood that each pixel corresponds to the objects associated with bounding boxes within the digital visual medium. An instance-level label that yields a label for each of the pixels of the digital visual medium corresponding to the objects is determined based, in part, on a collective probability map including the score for each pixel of the digital visual medium. In some aspects, the score for each pixel corresponding to each bounding box is determined by a prediction model trained by a neural network.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for using one or more computing devices to automatically segment an object in an image by referencing a dataset of already-segmented images. The technique generally involves identifying a patch of an already-segmented image in the dataset based on the patch of the already-segmented image being similar to an area of the image including a patch of the image. The technique further involves identifying a mask of the patch of the already-segmented image, the mask representing a segmentation in the already-segmented image. The technique also involves segmenting the object in the image based on at least a portion of the mask of the patch of the already-segmented image.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments labeling objects using multi-scale partitioning, rare class expansion, and/or spatial context techniques. An input image may be partitioned using different scale values to produce a different set of superpixels for each of the different scale values. Potential object labels for superpixels in each different set of superpixels of the input image may be assessed by comparing descriptors of the superpixels in each different set of superpixels of the input image with descriptors of reference superpixels in labeled reference images. An object label may then be assigned for a pixel of the input image based at least in part on the assessing of the potential object labels.
