Abstract
Various embodiments are disclosed for performing image inpainting. One embodiment is a method for editing a digital image in an image editing device. The method comprises obtaining a restoration region in the digital image and determining texture information corresponding to the restoration region. Based on the texture information, a texture strength map is generated corresponding to the restoration region. Based on the texture strength map, an inpainting operation is applied to pixels in the restoration region.
Claims28
A method for editing a digital image in an image editing device, comprising:
- obtaining a restoration region in the digital image;
- determining texture information corresponding to the restoration region;
- based on the texture information, generating a texture strength map corresponding to the restoration region;
- and
- based on the texture strength map, applying an inpainting operation to pixels in the restoration region.
A system for editing a digital image, comprising:
- a texture descriptor generator configured to determine texture descriptors corresponding to a restoration region within the digital image to undergo an inpainting operation;
- a texture strength map generator configured to generate a texture strength map corresponding to the restoration region based on the texture descriptors;
- and
- an inpainting component configured to apply the inpainting operation to pixels in the restoration region based on the corresponding texture strength specified in the texture strength map.
A method for editing a digital image in an image editing device, comprising:
- obtaining a restoration region in the digital image;
- generating a texture strength map corresponding to the restoration region based on texture characteristics associated with pixels in the restoration region;
- determining a texture difference for pixels in the restoration region relative to the texture strength map;
- and
- applying an inpainting operation to pixels in the restoration region according to the corresponding texture difference.
