Abstract

A new method for removing object, uses exemplar based image inpainting and discrete wavelet transforms, is proposed. Wavelet has been used as an image analysis tool because of its multi resolution and data separation features. The first image is projected onto the wavelet domain and scaling coefficients are revalued by using an exemplar based technique while doing this other wavelet sub band are simultaneously filled by exemplar patches using priority map of scaling coefficient. Inpainting is done at each level of wavelet transform. The inverse discrete wavelet transform is carried out of inpainted image up to finer resolution. All inpainted images are fused by averaging operator. This method gives better result compare to other methods, sharper and continuous edges are restored.
