Sheng Li · KTH Publication Database DiVA (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) · 2013

Image inpainting is a technique to repair damaged images or to remove/replace select regions. It was used to repair old artwork. It is also a part of movie special effects. With the extended application of electronic products, a lot of work done on mobile devices. But many algorithms may be unsuitable for mobile devices. The purpose of this work is to present an evaluation of several algorithms of image inpainting created in the past. Two classes of algorithms: Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) based algorithms and Exemplar-Based algorithms. The results show the advantages and disadvantages.
