Is there an open source project to remove background from images, serverside?

[franz68]

I have seen here very nice articles about client side image background removal opensource projects, but are there good equivalent server side ?

Many options in the comments of prior discussions https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36064639 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35838504

I just starred this on Github. So it was fresh in my memory https://github.com/imgly/background-removal-js

yes this one is perfect, but I am looking for the same thing, but not in the browser

Adapting the code to run on node.js may not be too terrible - I haven't looked at the repo (on mobile), but I've had luck porting non-DOM-related client js libs to server libs before.

I’d be concerned that something like that needs user feedback to do a really good job. When I try to do that with photoshop it is never quite right the first time though maybe the new A.I. models can do better.
