Remove Background [PYTHON?]

[Wictorian]

Is there a python library to remove background of images? If not is there an efficient way of automatically doing this? 

 

 

 

NOTE: Before you say I should have googled it, I did but the results weren't satisfying.

Did you mean that I didnt bother to look more than first 3 results?

I am certain you can train a AI with tensorflow and do that. Considering you cant even google, look up openCV.

Don't you think if it were as easy as

import something
something.do_the_thing()

you'd have found it in a google search?

 

You can use AI, you can use regular vision functions like a chroma key or focus detection, you can use a specialized algorithm. All of these require at least some idea of what you're doing.

 

I made a toy android app that does this a while back, it uses opencv DNN functionality with the MobileNetSSD network to isolate objects in a picture and the GrabCut algorithm to cut them out of the background - you can try and replicate this process in python.
