Comprehensive Survey on Image Inpainting Techniques

Inpainting is the process of reconstructing the missing or damaged contents inside an image using partly information loss in a plausible way that inpainted image look natural. In today’s life the persons that preserves the old photographs after some times this picture is damaged like scratches on that picture or some text is overlaid in that picture , so inpainting techniques can be used to obtain the resultant image that same as original image In this paper, we focus on the techniques that is multi-resolution technique, structure and texture propagation technique, virtual view synthesis Algorithm, watermarking-based inpainting, exemplar based image inpainting and sparsity based image inpainting. In each case for inpainted image, the goal is to fill the damaged portion of the image in a visually plausible way. Applications of image inpainting range from the removal of an object from a scene to the retouching of damaged painting or photograph
