Abstract
Systems and methods are described for programmatic generation of object images with polygonal outlines. Programmatic generation can include obtaining a segmentation mask identifying pixels of a source image depicting an object, applying morphological dilation the segmentation mask to produce a dilated mask, applying a polygonal approximation algorithm to one or more contours within the dilation mask to produce a polygonal outline mask, and generating a synthetic image of the object on a designated background by overlaying a portion of the source image, designated by the segmentation mask, on to a portion of the designated background designated by the polygonal outline mask.
