INPAINTING<\/strong><\/p>\n

Inpainting is a technique used to modify specific parts of an image. It uses a mask<\/strong> to define the editable area, ensuring the rest of the image remains exactly the same. For example, you can use it to change a person’s expression or swap an object in a scene.<\/p>\n

Since the process requires both the original image and the mask, both are loaded and passed to the specialized inpainting pipeline:<\/p>\n

from diffusers import AutoPipelineForInpainting\r\nfrom diffusers.utils import load_image\r\n\r\npipeline = AutoPipelineForInpainting.from_pretrained(\r\n    \"stable-diffusion-v1-5\/stable-diffusion-inpainting<\/strong>\",\r\n)\r\n\r\nprompt = \"bride running<\/strong>\"\r\nimage = pipeline(\r\n    prompt=prompt,\r\n    image=load_image(\"girl.png<\/strong>\"),\r\n    mask_image=load_image(\"mask.png<\/strong>\").convert(\"L\"),\r\n).images[0]\r\n\r\nimage.save(\"output.png<\/strong>\")\r\n<\/pre>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
To achieve a smoother transition between the modified pixels and the original background, you can apply a blur to the mask before processing:<\/p>\n
mask_image<\/strong> = load_image(\"mask.png\")\r\nblurred_mask<\/strong> = pipeline.mask_processor.blur(mask_image, blur_factor=33)<\/pre>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
OUTPAINTING<\/strong><\/p>\n
Outpainting extends the image beyond its original boundaries. Technically, this is achieved by using the Inpainting pipeline with an inverted mask<\/strong> (where the “hole” is the area outside the original content).<\/p>\n
from PIL import ImageOps\r\n\r\nmask_image<\/strong> = load_image(\"mask.png<\/strong>\").convert(\"L\")\r\nmask_image = ImageOps.invert<\/strong>(mask_image<\/strong>)<\/pre>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
