Licenses and credits
Background Killer is built on open work by other people. Here is what it uses and under which terms.
The cutout model
The model that finds the subject in your photo is ISNet general-use, from the DIS project (Dichotomous Image Segmentation) by Xuebin Qin and colleagues, released under the Apache License 2.0. It is described in “Highly Accurate Dichotomous Image Segmentation” (ECCV 2022). We converted it to the ONNX format and compressed it to 8 bits so that it runs in a browser. It runs entirely on your device.
