Image resynthesis using forward warping, gap discriminators, and coordinate-based inpainting

An image resynthesis system comprising:

• a source image input circuit;
• a forward warping circuit predicting, for each source image pixel of a source image, a corresponding position in a target image, and predicting a forward warping field which is aligned with the source image;
• and
• a gap filling circuit predicting a binary mask of gaps resulting from application of the forward warping circuit and filling in the gaps based on the binary mask by generating a texture image by means of predicting a pair of coordinates in the source image for each pixel in the texture image,
• wherein the source image comprises a first view of a person in a first body pose and the target image comprises a second view of the person in a second body pose different from the first body pose.
