Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for selecting target objects within digital images. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods generate a trained neural network based on training digital images and training indicators. Moreover, one or more embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods utilize a trained neural network and iterative user indicators to select targeted objects in digital images. Specifically, the disclosed systems and methods can transform user indicators into distance maps that can be utilized in conjunction with color channels and a trained neural network to identify pixels that reflect the target object.
