Conventional image inpainting techniques typically process entire images, which often leads to computational inefficiency and susceptibility to information redundancy, particularly in occluded or cluttered scenes. Inspired by cortical…
Video inpainting is the task of filling a region in a video in a visually convincing manner. It is very challenging due to the high dimensionality of the data and the temporal consistency required for obtaining convincing results. Recently,…
Semantic image editing requires inpainting pixels following a semantic map. It is a challenging task since this inpainting requires both harmony with the context and strict compliance with the semantic maps. The majority of the previous…
