Publication number: 20240135561Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that implement depth-aware object move operations for digital image editing. For instance, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems determine a first object depth for a first object portrayed within a digital image and a second object depth for a second object portrayed within the digital image. Additionally, the disclosed systems move the first object to create an overlap area between the first object and the second object within the digital image. Based on the first object depth and the second object depth, the disclosed systems modify the digital image to occlude the first object or the second object within the overlap area.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Zhihong Ding, Scott Cohen, Matthew Joss, Jianming Zhang, Darshan Prasad, Celso Gomes, Jonathan Brandt

Publication number: 20240135514Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that modify digital images via multi-layered scene completion techniques facilitated by artificial intelligence. For instance, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems receive a digital image portraying a first object and a second object against a background, where the first object occludes a portion of the second object. Additionally, the disclosed systems pre-process the digital image to generate a first content fill for the portion of the second object occluded by the first object and a second content fill for a portion of the background occluded by the second object. After pre-processing, the disclosed systems detect one or more user interactions to move or delete the first object from the digital image. The disclosed systems further modify the digital image by moving or deleting the first object and exposing the first content fill for the portion of the second object.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Daniil Pakhomov, Qing Liu, Zhihong Ding, Scott Cohen, Zhe Lin, Jianming Zhang, Zhifei Zhang, Ohiremen Dibua, Mariette Souppe, Krishna Kumar Singh, Jonathan Brandt
