| 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: 0.1373 (Lower is better) · Global error SAD(k): 51.148 (Lower is better) · Foreground retention: 99.640% (Higher is better) · Background residue: 0.120% (Lower is better) |
| Fixture findings | Complete subject contours with little residue; this free export was only 500px and blurred fine hair. | The export is 2048px, but hair has blocky cuts and jagged gaps; inspect carefully for detailed cutouts. |
| 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. | Because segmentation runs on a heavily compressed upload and a 22KB mask upscaled to 2048px, curly hair edges appear blocky and hard-clipped (mad_band=0.1462, SAD(k)=51.1, bg_leak=0.816%). |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users familiar with remove.bg's workflow needing quick guest 500px previews or desktop/Photoshop integrations | Simple hard-edged objects (boxes, cars, icons) needing sub-second processing where fine hair detail is not required |
