ABSTRACT:
Properties of pixels of a digital image are sampled within different subdivisions of an editing tool impression to produce different property distributions. The subdivisions may be differently-located within the tool impression. The property distributions from each region are classified to identify different edit classes within the property space, which are then used to apply an edit effect to the digital image within the tool impression. The edit classes may be represented by an edit profile in two or more dimensions (e.g., applying to one or more pixel properties).
