**(2021-Aug-24)** We played a bit more about fusing the orignal image and the generated portraits to composite different styles. You can 
(1) Download this repo by
```
git clone https://github.com/NathanUA/U-2-Net.git
```
(2) Download the u2net_portrait.pth from [**GoogleDrive**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IG3HdpcRiDoWNookbncQjeaPN28t90yW/view?usp=sharing) or [**Baidu Pan(提取码：chgd)**](https://pan.baidu.com/s/1BYT5Ts6BxwpB8_l2sAyCkw)model and put it into the directory: ```./saved_models/u2net_portrait/```, 
(3) run the code by command 
```
python u2net_portrait_composite.py -s 20 -a 0.5
```
,where ``-s`` indicates the sigma of gaussian function for blurring the orignal image and ``-a`` denotes the alpha weights of the orignal image when fusing them.

**(2021-Mar-11)** Dr. Tim developed a [**video version rembg**](https://github.com/ecsplendid/rembg-greenscreen) for removing video backgrounds using U2-Net. The awesome demo results can be found on [**YouTube**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NjqR2vCV_k).

**(2021-Mar-02)** We found some other interesting applications of our U2-Net including [**MOJO CUT**](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.innoria.magicut&hl=en_CA&gl=US), [**Real-Time Background Removal on Iphone**](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6752303661705170944/?updateEntityUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_feedUpdate%3A%28V2%2Curn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6752303661705170944%29), [**Video Background Removal**](https://nisargkapkar.hashnode.dev/image-and-video-background-removal-using-deep-learning), [**Another Online Portrait Generation Demo on AWS**](http://s3-website-hosting-u2net.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/), [**AI Scissor**](https://qooba.net/2020/09/11/ai-scissors-sharp-cut-with-neural-networks/).

**(2021-Feb-15)** We just released an online demo [**http://profu.ai**](http://profu.ai) for the portrait generation. Please feel free to give it a try and provide any suggestions or comments. 
![Profuai](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xuebinqin/U-2-Net/master/figures/profuai.png)

**(2021-Feb-06)** Recently, some people asked the problem of using U2-Net for human segmentation, so we trained another example model for human segemntation based on [**Supervisely Person Dataset**](https://supervise.ly/explore/projects/supervisely-person-dataset-23304/datasets).

(1) To run the human segmentation model, please first downlowd the [**u2net_human_seg.pth**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m_Kgs91b21gayc2XLW0ou8yugAIadWVP/view?usp=sharing) model weights into ``` ./saved_models/u2net_human_seg/```. 
(2) Prepare the to-be-segmented images into the corresponding directory, e.g. ```./test_data/test_human_images/```. 
(3) Run the inference by command: ```python u2net_human_seg_test.py``` and the results will be output into the corresponding dirctory, e.g. ```./test_data/u2net_test_human_images_results/``` 
[**Notes: Due to the labeling accuracy of the Supervisely Person Dataset, the human segmentation model (u2net_human_seg.pth) here won't give you hair-level accuracy. But it should be more robust than u2net trained with DUTS-TR dataset on general human segmentation task. It can be used for human portrait segmentation, human body segmentation, etc.**](https://github.com/NathanUA/U-2-Net)

**(2020-Dec-28)** Some interesting applications and useful tools based on U2-Net: 
(1) [**Xiaolong Liu**](https://github.com/LiuXiaolong19920720) developed several very interesting applications based on U2-Net including [**Human Portrait Drawing**](https://www.cvpy.net/studio/cv/func/DeepLearning/sketch/sketch/page/)(As far as I know, Xiaolong is the first one who uses U2-Net for portrait generation), [**image matting**](https://www.cvpy.net/studio/cv/func/DeepLearning/matting/matting/page/) and [**so on**](https://www.cvpy.net/). 
(2) [**Vladimir Seregin**](https://github.com/peko/nn-lineart) developed an interesting tool, [**NN based lineart**](https://peko.github.io/nn-lineart/), for comparing the portrait results of U2-Net and that of another popular model, [**ArtLine**](https://github.com/vijishmadhavan/ArtLine), developed by [**Vijish Madhavan**](https://github.com/vijishmadhavan). 
(3) [**Daniel Gatis**](https://github.com/danielgatis/rembg) built a python tool, [**Rembg**](https://pypi.org/project/rembg/), for image backgrounds removal based on U2-Net. I think this tool will greatly facilitate the application of U2-Net in different fields. 
![REMBG](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xuebinqin/U-2-Net/master/figures/rembg.png)

**(2020-Nov-21)** Recently, we found an interesting application of U2-Net for [**human portrait drawing**](https://www.pythonf.cn/read/141098). Therefore, we trained another model for this task based on the [**APDrawingGAN dataset**](https://github.com/yiranran/APDrawingGAN).

### Usage for portrait generation
1. Clone this repo to local
```
git clone https://github.com/NathanUA/U-2-Net.git
```

2. Download the u2net_portrait.pth from [**GoogleDrive**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IG3HdpcRiDoWNookbncQjeaPN28t90yW/view?usp=sharing) or [**Baidu Pan(提取码：chgd)**](https://pan.baidu.com/s/1BYT5Ts6BxwpB8_l2sAyCkw)model and put it into the directory: ```./saved_models/u2net_portrait/```.

3. Run on the testing set. 
(1) Download the train and test set from [**APDrawingGAN**](https://github.com/yiranran/APDrawingGAN). These images and their ground truth are stitched side-by-side (512x1024). You need to split each of these images into two 512x512 images and put them into ```./test_data/test_portrait_images/portrait_im/```. You can also download the split testing set on [GoogleDrive](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NkTsDDN8VO-JVik6VxXyV-3l2eo29KCk/view?usp=sharing). 
(2) Running the inference with command ```python u2net_portrait_test.py``` will ouptut the results into ```./test_data/test_portrait_images/portrait_results```.

4. Run on your own dataset. 
(1) Prepare your images and put them into ```./test_data/test_portrait_images/your_portrait_im/```. [**To obtain enough details of the protrait, human head region in the input image should be close to or larger than 512x512. The head background should be relatively clear.**](https://github.com/NathanUA/U-2-Net) 
(2) Run the prediction by command ```python u2net_portrait_demo.py``` will outputs the results to ```./test_data/test_portrait_images/your_portrait_results/```. 
(3) The difference between ```python u2net_portrait_demo.py``` and ```python u2net_portrait_test.py``` is that we added a simple [**face detection**](https://opencv-python-tutroals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py_tutorials/py_objdetect/py_face_detection/py_face_detection.html) step before the portrait generation in ```u2net_portrait_demo.py```. Because the testing set of APDrawingGAN are normalized and cropped to 512x512 for including only heads of humans, while our own dataset may varies with different resolutions and contents. Therefore, the code ```python u2net_portrait_demo.py``` will detect the biggest face from the given image and then crop, pad and resize the ROI to 512x512 for feeding to the network. The following figure shows how to take your own photos for generating high quality portraits.

**(2020-Sep-13)** Our U2-Net based model is the **6th** in [**MICCAI 2020 Thyroid Nodule Segmentation Challenge**](https://tn-scui2020.grand-challenge.org/Resultannouncement/).

**(2020-May-18)** The official paper of our **U2-Net (U square net)** ([**PDF in elsevier**(free until July 5 2020)](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0031320320302077?dgcid=author), [**PDF in arxiv**](http://arxiv.org/abs/2005.09007)) is now available. If you are not able to access that, please feel free to drop me an email.

**(2020-May-16)** We fixed the upsampling issue of the network. Now, the model should be able to handle **arbitrary input size**. (Tips: This modification is to facilitate the retraining of U2-Net on your own datasets. When using our pre-trained model on SOD datasets, please keep the input size as 320x320 to guarantee the performance.)

**(2020-May-16)** We highly appreciate **Cyril Diagne** for building this fantastic AR project: [**AR Copy and Paste**](https://github.com/cyrildiagne/ar-cutpaste) using our **U2-Net** (Qin *et al*, PR 2020) and [**BASNet**](https://github.com/NathanUA/BASNet)(Qin *et al*, CVPR 2019). The [**demo video**](https://twitter.com/cyrildiagne/status/1256916982764646402) in twitter has achieved over **5M** views, which is phenomenal and shows us more application possibilities of SOD.
