| Task quality | ||
| Measured fixture results | Edge error MAD: 0.1036 (Lower is better) · Global error SAD(k): 40.928 (Lower is better) · Foreground retention: 99.810% (Higher is better) · Background residue: 0.038% (Lower is better) | Edge error MAD: 0.1259 (Lower is better) · Global error SAD(k): 59.256 (Lower is better) · Foreground retention: 99.680% (Higher is better) · Background residue: 0.143% (Lower is better) |
| Fixture findings | Complete subject contours with little residue; this free export was only 500px and blurred fine hair. | The subject is largely preserved; translucent background halos remain around the curls. |
| Original historical observation | High foreground recall (99.81%) and low background leak (0.038%); transition band error mad_band=0.1036, SAD(k)=40.93, with mild edge softening when upsampled from the 500×500 free preview. | Server generates a full 2048×2048 Alpha mask (99.68% foreground recall), though outer curly hair transition bands retain noticeable semi-transparent background halos (mad_band=0.1259, SAD(k)=59.26). |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users familiar with remove.bg's workflow needing quick guest 500px previews or desktop/Photoshop integrations | Commercial users already in the DepositPhotos / VistaPrint ecosystem who value an explicit 'automatically removed after 7 days' retention policy |
