How is the hidden background generated when an object/person is cropped out of a photo?

187 views

For example, you have a photo of two people in the foreground and a library in the background. Someone uses software or an app to remove one (or even both) of them from the photo.

What I don’t understand is how they fill in the part of the background that was originally hidden from view by the person standing in front of it. Can someone please explain this to me?

Short answer is AI. Long answer is nobody really knows. The neural network algorithm is generated by a trial and error process, and the inner workings aren’t fully understood.

Its kinda like how animal breeders were able to get desireable results before modern science.
