Removing an object from an image

摘要

A method for removing an object from an image is described. The image is separated into a source region and a target region. The target region includes the object to be removed. A contour of the target region may be extracted. One or more filling candidate pixels are obtained. Multiple filling patches are obtained. Each filling patch is centered at a filling candidate pixel. A filling patch may be selected for replacement.

1. A method for removing an object from an image, comprising:
separating, by an electronic device, the image into a source region and a target region comprising the object to be removed; determining a set of pixels corresponding to a contour of the target region, wherein the contour is recalculated at each iteration; obtaining, by the electronic device, one or more filling candidate pixels; obtaining, by the electronic device, multiple filling patches, wherein each filling patch is centered at a filling candidate pixel; and selecting, by the electronic device, a filling patch for replacement.
