How to Remove Background of GIF Images and Photos with Python

To remove the background from an image or photo demands precise identification of prominent objects. For GIF images, various methods are available for object definition. In straightforward scenarios, the automated approach efficiently handles images with uniform backgrounds. Nevertheless, when dealing with photos featuring multiple figures or objects merging with the background, it’s recommended to conduct a preliminary object designation. This entails manually outlining rectangular areas and specifying the object types to be highlighted. In more intricate cases of automated object allocation, the Cloud API stands as an alternative. This cloud-based application identifies objects within a photo and employs the resulting contours to eliminate the background. Following the background removal, enhancing the edges of the remaining objects can significantly enhance the overall image quality. For removing the background in GIF files, the suggestion is to utilize the Aspose.Imaging for Python via .NET API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use image manipulation and conversion API for Python platform. You may install it using the following command from your system command.

The system command line

>> pip install aspose-imaging-python-net

  • About Aspose.Imaging for Python API

    Aspose.Imaging API is an image processing solution to create, modify, draw or convert images (photos) within applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), modifications such as drawing, working with graphic primitives, transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, binarization, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, dithering, masking, deskewing), and memory optimization strategies. It’s a standalone library and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with native APIs within projects. These are 100% private on-premise APIs and images are processed at your servers.

    GIF What is GIF File Format

    A GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a type of highly compressed image. Owned by Unisys, GIF uses the LZW compression algorithm that does not degrade the image quality. For each image GIF typically allow up to 8 bits per pixel and up to 256 colours are allowed across the image. In contrast to a JPEG image, which can display up to 16 million colours and fairly touches the limits of the human eye. Back when the internet emerged, GIFs remained the best choice because they required low bandwidth and compatible for the graphics that consume solid areas of colour. An animated GIF combines numerous images or frames into a single file and displays them in a sequence to generate an animated clip or a short video. The colour limitations are up to 256 for each frame and are likely to be the least suitable for reproducing other images and photographs with colour gradient.
