Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that modify digital images via scene-based editing using image understanding facilitated by artificial intelligence. For instance, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems provide, for display within a graphical user interface of a client device, a digital image displaying a plurality of objects, the plurality of objects comprising a plurality of different types of objects. The disclosed systems generate, utilizing a segmentation neural network and without user input, an object mask for objects of the plurality of objects. The disclosed systems determine, utilizing a distractor detection neural network, a classification for the objects of the plurality of objects. The disclosed systems remove at least one object from the digital image, based on classifying the at least one object as a distracting object, by deleting the object mask for the at least one object.
