1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
detecting, by a computing device, an object of interest in an image;
displaying, by a graphical user interface of the computing device, the image comprising the detected object of interest, and the image having an initial brightness exposure level;
providing, by the graphical user interface, a user-adjustable control to adjust a desired local brightness exposure level for the detected object of interest;
receiving, by the user-adjustable control, a user indication of the desired local brightness exposure level for the detected object of interest; and
responsive to the user indication, adjusting the local brightness exposure level for the detected object of interest, while maintaining the initial brightness exposure level for the entirety of the image outside the detected object of interest, and wherein the adjusting is based on a bilateral grid adjustment by:
applying a machine learning model to generate a first bilateral grid for the target region,
applying the machine learning model to generate a second bilateral grid for a portion of the image outside the target region, and
wherein the bilateral grid adjustment is based on a combination of the first bilateral grid and the second bilateral grid.
