• Abstract: Mural image inpainting is far less explored compared to its natural image counterpart and remains largely unsolved. Most existing image-inpainting methods tend to take the target image as the only input and directly repair the damage to generate a visually plausible result. These methods obtain high performance in restoration or completion of some pre-defined objects, e.g., human face, fabric texture, and printed texts, etc., however, are not suitable for repairing murals with varying subjects and large damaged areas. Moreover, due to discrete colors in paints, mural inpainting may suffer from apparent color bias. To this end, in this paper, we propose a line drawing guided progressive mural inpainting method. It divides the inpainting process into two steps: structure reconstruction and color correction, implemented by a structure reconstruction network (SRN) and a color correction network (CCN), respectively. In structure reconstruction, SRN utilizes the line drawing as an assistant to achieve large-scale content authenticity and structural stability. In color correction, CCN operates a local color adjustment for missing pixels which reduces the negative effects of color bias and edge jumping. The proposed approach is evaluated against the current state-of-the-art image inpainting methods. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in mural image inpainting.

  Inpainting is the process of taking an image and generating lost or intentionally occluded portions. Modern inpainting techniques have shown remarkable ability in generating sensible completions. A critical gap in these existing models will be addressed, focusing on the ability to prompt and control what exactly is generated.

  PaintSeg is a new unsupervised method for segmenting objects without any training. Inpainting and outpainting are alternated, with the former masking the foreground and filling in the background, and the latter masking the background while recovering the missing part of the foreground object. Our experimental results demonstrate that PaintSeg outperforms existing approaches in coarse mask-prompt, box-prompt, and point-prompt segmentation tasks.

In this paper, we design a multi-stage progressive reasoning network (MPR-Net) containing global to local receptive fields for murals inpainting. Our method has been evaluated through both qualitative and quantitative experiments, and the results demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art image inpainting methods.

We also propose a new evaluation metric called Perceptual Artifact Ratio (PAR), which is the ratio of objectionable inpainted regions to the entire inpainted area.

  Image outpainting seeks for a semantically consistent extension of the input image beyond its available content. In this work, we formulate the problem from the perspective of inverting generative adversarial networks. Our generator renders micro-patches conditioned on their joint latent code as well as their individual positions in the image.

  We propose a color quantization network, ColorCNN, which learns to structure the images from the classification loss in an end-to-end manner. With only a 1-bit color space (i.e., two colors), the proposed network achieves 82.1% top-1 accuracy on the CIFAR10 dataset. For applications, when encoded with PNG, the proposed color quantization shows superiority over other image compression methods in the extremely low bit-rate regime.
