Background removal
Upload an image, get a transparent PNG. Seven models for different kinds of pictures.
This tool ran on a GPU at my place, and it's been offline since I moved to New York. Below is how it worked. The engineering behind all of them is in austn.net's GPU tools.
Upload an image and get it back with the background removed, as a transparent PNG.
How it worked
Different pictures need different models, so you could pick one:
| Model | Good for |
|---|---|
| u2net | General use, the default |
| u2netp | A smaller, faster u2net |
| u2net_human_seg | People |
| u2net_cloth_seg | Clothing |
| silueta | A lighter general model |
| isnet-general-use | General use, sharper edges |
| isnet-anime | Illustrations and anime |
The model name is checked against that list on the server, so nothing else reaches the workflow.
