Original Abstract Submitted
methods and systems are disclosed for performing operations for applying augmented reality elements to a person depicted in an image. the operations include receiving an image that includes data representing a depiction of a person; generating a segmentation of the data representing the person depicted in the image; extracting a portion of the image corresponding to the segmentation of the data representing the person depicted in the image; applying a machine learning model to the portion of the image to predict a surface normal tensor for the data representing the depiction of the person, the surface normal tensor representing surface normals of each pixel within the portion of the image; and applying one or more augmented reality (ar) elements to the image based on the surface normal tensor.
