Matting is a process used in image and video editing to separate a foreground object from its background, allowing for effects like compositing or background replacement. It involves creating an alpha matte, which is a grayscale mask that defines the transparency level of each pixel, thereby distinguishing the object from the background. Techniques like chroma keying, where a specific color is removed, or more advanced algorithms like deep learning-based methods, can be used to achieve precise matting.
