Claim Text:
1. A method of detecting objects in a digital image in a computer comprising a memory, comprising: obtaining, in a first buffer in the memory, a digital image comprising pixels; rendering the digital image in a display of the computer; receiving user stroke input relative to the first buffer in a touch-sensitive input interface of the computer; performing pixel object detection on pixels corresponding to the received user stroke input; and saving the output of the pixel object detection in a second buffer in the memory wherein performing pixel object detection comprises: calculating a network theoretic graph of the pixels corresponding to the received user stroke input, performing object detection utilizing the network theoretic graph of the pixels, and saving the output of the object detection in a third buffer; applying a Gaussian blur to the pixels in the third buffer; applying a ramp to the edges in the third buffer; and compositing the third buffer into the second buffer.
