Abstract
Automatic bokeh is one of the smartphone’s essential photography effects. This effect enhances the quality of the image where the subject background gets out of focus by providing a soft (i.e., diverse) background. Most smartphones have a single rear camera that is lacking to provide which effects need to be applied to which kind of images. To do the same, smartphones depend on different software to generate the bokeh effect on images. Blur, Color-point, Zoom, Spin, Big Bokeh, Color Picker, Low-key, High-Key, and Silhouette are the popular bokeh effects. With this wide range of bokeh types available, it is difficult for the user to choose a suitable effect for their images. Deep Learning (DL) models (i.e., MobileNetV2, InceptionV3, and VGG16) are used in this work to recommend high-quality bokeh effects for images. Four thousand five hundred images are collected from online resources such as Google images, Unsplash, and Kaggle to examine the model performance. 85% accuracy has been achieved for recommending different bokeh effects using the proposed model MobileNetV2, which exceeds many of the existing models.
