In some images, the background is noisy or has contour lines or other artifacts. It’s more pronounced in Enhanced look than Natural. I want to improve this part of the algorithm.
I think artifacts often come from handheld stacks of a busy background where the pixels in the background move. At least that’s what I saw with some of my crappy handheld shots 😆 . Maybe it could take most of the background from a single frame. But knowing how tedious that can be in photoshop, that is probably not an easy task.

The problem is, that a single frame might not be enough due to different focus planes. But, if this is something which could work automatically, that would be a huge benefit. In Zerene, with the DMap algorithm you can typically control that to some degree by making the „Contrast threshold“ quite large, so that it just preserves the edges around the subject and leaves the background blurry. Then you can paint in the background nicely. But it always involves creating a couple of variations, and that tedious, indeed.
