inpaint
Inpainting, also called image inpainting, is the process of reconstructing lost, occluded, or deteriorated parts of an image such that the result is visually plausible and consistent with the surrounding content. The goal is to fill regions in a way that preserves or restores structure, texture, and color continuity without introducing obvious artifacts. In video, similar techniques extend to temporal coherence across frames.
Digital inpainting methods are broadly categorized as diffusion-based, exemplar-based, or data-driven. Diffusion-based approaches propagate information from
Prominent early methods include Navier–Stokes based inpainting and the fast marching method, while exemplar-based techniques were
Applications include photograph restoration, removing objects or blemishes, and completion of occluded frames in video or
