Definition
Digital inpainting is a technique to automatically restore partially damaged photos, repair aged movies, or fill holes on 3D surfaces.
Introduction
Digital inpainting requires fundamental knowledge in image processing, video coding, and 3D geometric. Certainly, these topics are important issues in multimedia computing. This article summarizes a few challenge issues in digital inpainting and presents some solutions in the literature. We divide the article into three short sections for each problem (i.e., image, video, and 3D surface). Several short articles (included in this book) related to this article further explain additional issues on image and video inpainting.
Image Inpainting
Aged photos and paintings can be damaged either by scratch, dirt, or other reasons. Even though it is not possible to restore a painting to its original, to repair damaged artifacts with a visually pleasant result is...
