@SJavad hi there,

Thank you for reaching out with your question. Adding cloud effects to images for augmentation can be done using various image processing techniques. One approach is to overlay cloud textures onto the original image.

Here's a general outline of the process:

1. Load the original image and the cloud texture image.
2. Resize the cloud texture image to your desired scale.
3. Randomly select a position on the original image to place the cloud texture.
4. Blend the original image and the cloud texture using alpha blending or another blending technique.
5. Save the augmented image.

You can achieve this using popular image processing libraries such as OpenCV or PIL (Python Imaging Library). These libraries provide functions to load, resize, blend, and save images.

Please note that the implementation details may vary depending on the specific library and programming language you are using.

I hope this helps you get started with adding cloud effects to your images! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards.
