Abstract

Automatic digital inpainting is a challenge but interesting research area. This demonstration presents a tool, which uses a color interpolation mechanism to restore damaged images. The mechanism checks the variation of pixel blocks and restores pixels using different strategies. We test more than 1000 images, including photos, paintings, and cartoon drawings. The proposed system is also available at: http://www.mine.tku.edu.tw/demos/inpaint.
