Why extend an MIT licensed model's weights (BiRefNet) and release it under a cc-by-nc-4.0 license?
replyYep, nobody wants to adopt models with this license because it opens legal questions most users, whether professional or non-professional, don't want to muddy their work with.
replyThis looks great! What are the resolution limits? From the GitHub readme I saw mention of 1024x1024, but I was able to process an image 1920x2880 just fine. I didn't see any really obvious scaling artefacts, so is there something clever happening behind the scenes?
replyWe resize the opacity mask. That tends to scale better
replyI love seeing this. Background removal is such a core task used in so many systems, I group it in with speech to text in terms of importance.
replyI love seeing maturity getting pushed in this space. Congratulations to you and the team!
This is awesome, I just bookmarked your tool. Ive been looking for something simple to use, since Its not easy to use the segment anything tool anymore. Thanks!
replyThanks! Feel free to open an issue if you run into any issues with the outputs
replyI was so impressed with remove.bg in Dec 2018; awesome to see the progress in this area, so cool.
replyvery cool! I've been having a fun time porting non-LLM models to iOS/Android (recently had some success with making Bonsai's image generation model run on Android) - have you attempted to run any of the workflows on a mobile device at all? Mind if I try?
replyPlease do try, I would love nothing more!
replyAll I ask is you make a PR to https://github.com/feyninc/nobg with your results. We'd love to see what you make, contribute in any way we can, and share onwards.
Of course, would be happy to!

replyOf course, it's impossible to know for sure what was LLM processed or not, but some of your posts (like this one) have been getting classified that way.
The 4K cap was a judgement call, we didn't want one source to dominate. The license is cc-by-nc, just added it to the hugging face
