Publication number: 20260253186Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that generates a refined digital image that corrects inpainting artifacts in a modified digital image with inpainted pixels. Furthermore, the disclosed systems receive an inpainting request to inpaint a region in a digital image (e.g., a region indicated by a mask). Moreover, the disclosed systems generate a modified digital image from the inpainting request and the digital image, where the modified digital image includes one or more inpainted portions in place of the region. Further, the disclosed systems use a neural network-based refiner model to generate a refined digital image from the modified digital image that corrects artifacts around borders of the one or more inpainted portions in the modified digital image.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2025Publication date: August 27, 2026Inventors: Haitian Zheng, Jianming Zhang, Jingwan Lu, Sohrab Amirghodsi, Yuqian Zhou, Krishna Kumar Singh, Zhe Lin

Patent number: 12718429Abstract: In implementations of systems for human reposing based on multiple input views, a computing device implements a reposing system to receive input data describing: input digital images; pluralities of keypoints corresponding to the input digital images, the pluralities of keypoints representing poses of a person depicted in the input digital images; and a plurality of keypoints representing a target pose. The reposing system generates selection masks corresponding to the input digital images by processing the input data using a machine learning model. The selection masks represent likelihoods of spatial correspondence between pixels of an output digital image and portions of the input digital images. The reposing system generates the output digital image depicting the person in the target pose for display in a user interface based on the selection masks and the input data.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2023Date of Patent: August 25, 2026Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Rishabh Jain, Mayur Hemani, Mausoom Sarkar, Krishna Kumar Singh, Jingwan Lu, Duygu Ceylan Aksit, Balaji Krishnamurthy

Patent number: 12688325Abstract: Face anonymization techniques are described that overcome conventional challenges to generate an anonymized face. In one example, a digital object editing system is configured to generate an anonymized face based on a target face and a reference face. As part of this, the digital object editing system employs an encoder as part of machine learning to extract a target encoding of the target face image and a reference encoding of the reference face. The digital object editing system then generates a mixed encoding from the target and reference encodings. The mixed encoding is employed by a machine-learning model of the digital object editing system to generate a mixed face. An object replacement module is used by the digital object editing system to replace the target face in the target digital image with the mixed face.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2023Date of Patent: July 21, 2026Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Yang Yang, Zhixin Shu, Shabnam Ghadar, Jingwan Lu, Jakub Fiser, Elya Schechtman, Cameron Y.
