Android app for blurring image background using machine learning

CameraBlur:Portrait mode using DeeplabV3+ Semantic Image Segmentation

A simple android app to implement Portrait mode using a single sensor like in Pixel 2 (well not exactly exactly like Pixel 2's). This app allows you to either click image from your phone or select an image from storage and apply the blur. This app can run on ARM32 bit ARM v7A as well as ARM64 ARMv8-A.

Demo

Some Samples

Features

• Select image from storage or click them using camera
• Blur a variety of subjects (most centered subject will be selected rest will be background).
• SoftBlur around edges

For developers

I have 3 pre-trained models of different crop sizes Default 1025 px. You can use any one of them but with increased crop size the processing time also increases (by a lot), so use them as per your requirement. Crop size is the size of the image that the input image will be resized to and sent for processing. The output dimensions are always less than crop size.

For using 1536 px: Copy InputSize 1536px\frozen_inference_graph.pband paste it in CameraBlur\app\src\main\assets\.

Then change CameraBlur\app\src\main\java\com\anondev\gaurav\camerablur\DeeplabProcessor.javaline 28

From

public final static int INPUT_SIZE = 1025;

to

public final static int INPUT_SIZE = 1536; 

Todo

• Use Android RenderScript for blurring images(Soon).
• Will add feature to edit the depth of feild in the gallery by the end of this year ( don't know how 😂 but will definitely do it).
• Implement tensorflow lite (not possible until tensorflow can quantize deeplabv3 plus model).

This application wouldn't have been possible without the great material produced by the community. I would like to give special thanks to the authors of essential parts I've got on the internet and used in the code.:

• Tensorflow's deeplab
• A special thanks to dailystudio for implementing mobilenet model on TFMobile without his help this project wouldn't have been sucessful. Also Without the advice given by Liang-Chieh Chen, we couldn't have successfully exported the model to mobile devices.
