Head and Neck Segmentation
Before I go making a feature request, would like to know if there is any way to do head and neck segmentation. Basically, I'd like to be able to do body replacement, while retaining the users head AND neck, going down to about where the top of the collar bones start and excluding the shoulders. Currently, it seems I can only choose between head, shoulders, or head and shoulders, but none of these hits the mark as far as retaining both head and neck goes.
Is there anyway to control how segmentation works in a more fine grain way (excluding the current blur, refine tools)?
Is there a practical way to do this without segmentation? Was thinking maaybe I could pin shapes to a users shoulders and use that as a mask or something to block out those unwanted areas from the head and shoulders segmentation... not sure how to do that atm, but will update if I have any success.
Hi ichabodcole,
Distinguishing neck from shoulder is definitely a hard segmentation problem due to vaguely defined border lines. Probably you can try segmenting clothes out and see if that can be a workaround for your problem.

Thanks for the info Eric, totally understand the challenge there! You mentioned segmenting by clothing, can you explain what you mean by that? Do you mean using like a custom ml model for segmentation or some other means?
Thanks!
Eric Hu Bump, just wondering what you meant by the clothing segmentation comment?
Hi ichabodcole,
By clothing segmentation, I meant something like https://github.com/anish9/Fashion-AI-segmentation. Example training data can be found at https://github.com/bearpaw/clothing-co-parsing. We may consider releasing templates regarding this topic in the future.
Thanks
