Image Completion with Automatic Structure Propagation

Peipei Pan, Xin Zheng, Qingqing Xu, Ping Guo · 2012

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for image completion with automatic structure propagation. This method integrates two stages: Firstly, it extends the salient structure lines from the known regions to the unknown by following a local self-similarity assumption on natural images. Then guided by the structure information, it restores the missing region by patch-based texture synthesis. Experiment results demonstrate a better effect of our method than that of the previous patch-based texture synthesis image completion algorithm.
