MODNet: Is a Green Screen Really Necessary for Real-Time Portrait Matting?

Arxiv Preprint | Supplementary Video

This is the official project of our paper Is a Green Screen Really Necessary for Real-Time Portrait Matting?

MODNet is a trimap-free model for portrait matting in real time (on a single GPU).

Our amazing demo, code, pre-trained model, and validation benchmark are coming soon!

Announcement

I have received some requests for accessing our code. I am sorry that we need some time to get everything ready since this repository is now supported by Zhanghan Ke alone. Our plans in the next few months are:

• We first plan to publish an online image/video matting demo along with the pre-trained model in Dec. 2020.
• We then plan to release the code of supervised training and unsupervised SOC in Jan. 2021.
• We finally plan to open source the PPM-100 validation benchmark in Feb. 2021.

We look forward to your continued attention to this project. Thanks.
