Chapter 2 overviews local methods for inpainting, also referred to as geometric methods, starting in 1993. These approaches are typically based on the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) arising from the minimisation of certain mathematical energies. Geometrical methods have proven to be powerful for the removal of scratches, long tiny lines or small damages such as craquelures in art-related images.
