@tolchx, I'm not sure but I think there is a problem with arguments. Instead of --tb, just use --back. Also, how are your results? Can you share them with me because I'm not getting that good results. I had to do some post-processing.

I had good results with some videos, I'm experimenting with other material, here I uploaded a video, use the algorithm to segment the dancers, and then apply styletransfer https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsK54qgx_9/
I will try the solution you recommend, thanks

@tolchx, you are using it for something interesting. Can you elaborate on what you are doing? Also, did you make any changes to the code? Because I had to do some post-processing to get good results.

@Flock1 Have you got a good result? Can you share some tips? thanks
and I too got the same error

@zbvictory, as I mentioned here, this error happens because the folder doesn't have the image you want to work with. Do check the folder you're getting the image from.

My raw results weren't that good. I'll share the changes I made.

@Flock1 Thank you very much for your reply and look forward to your sharing !

Hi! I have a small query. I am very interesting in background matting as a technique, however, I don't have photos with a separate background with and without the subject - I have photos of birds in a cage, and I wish to remove the background of the cage bars. I used the background photo for each image as the cropped background of the cage, so the photos are not the same size for the segmentation.

I got this error code
CUDA Device: 0 Using image mode

But it didn't seem like the segmentation actually was performed on the 7 examples of background and image that I provided - any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!

My results when I try and plot are [] instead of any images

@Sicily-F, from what I can imagine this is probably because it's not reading the images. Can you post the whole error? I might be able to figure out where exactly is the problem

This colab is no longer works because tf<2 is no longer supported in google colaboratory.

I'm getting issue when Setting up the environment:

can u please explain how to solve this issue
