Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Image inpainting is a method that fills in missing regions with plausible textures in an image to remove undesired objects for enhancing the utility of the image. Image inpainting has been widely studied; some conventional methods define an energy function based on similarity between missing regions and the rest of the image. They search for patterns that are similar to the missing regions and update pixel values so that the energy function is minimized. However, applying such methods only once does not always generate plausible textures for the missing regions. This problem can be solved by iteratively applying image inpainting with manually reselecting such failure regions. To improve the quality of image inpainting result without such manual reselection, this study proposes a method that iteratively applies image inpainting with automatic detection of failure regions in a resulting image using a convolutional neural network.
