Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel scale-invariant image inpainting algorithm that combines several inpainted images obtained from multiple pyramids of different coarsest scales. To achieve this, first we build the pyramids and then we run an image inpainting algorithm individually on each of the pyramids to obtain different inpainted images. Finally, we combine those inpainted images by a gradient based approach to obtain the final inpainted image. The motivation of this approach is to solve the problem of appearing artifacts in traditional single pyramid-based approach since the results depend on the starting scale of the pyramid. Here we assume that most of the inpainted images produced by the pyramids are quite good. However, some of them may have artifacts and these artifacts are eliminated by gradient based image composition. We test the proposed algorithm on a large number of natural images and compare the results with some of the existing methods to demonstrate the efficacy and superiority of the proposed method.
