An Image Inpainting Technique Based on Parallel Projection Methods

Abstract

We propose in this paper a new method of image reconstruction by inpainting small pattern over a damaged scratch, using a variant of the parallel projection method (PPM) for solving the convex feasibility problem. The method is based on a fragmentation of the damaged region in small quadrilaterals and reconstruct the image by filling the scratch with PPM generated pattern. The algorithm is fast and directly parallelizable.
